Bold of you to assume it hasn’t been bought, sued or destroyed by MS, Amazon, Google or Meta by that time.

Sadly I think most will just switch to bluesky so they can see the next disaster of enshittification unfold.

Also it doesn’t help most celebrities moved to bluesky as well. Then there is the fact you have to choose an instance on lemmy which scares most people away.

I hope lemmy gets traction…

I dont get why people visit it anymore. The censorship, gatekeeping and botposting is just absolutely bonkers.

Like okay, maybe if you only watch memes and cat pictures I can kinda understand. But every single sub I’ve been in had an idiotic amount of gatekeeping. Just mentioning grapheneos in some subs could get you banned. Just mentioning luigi mangione could get you banned. Oh your post is falsely flagged as inappropriate? Banned, and good luck trying to appeal.

It’s become an absolute dystopian shithole. Lemmy isn’t perfect but at least if the host of your instance goes insane you can leave for another. And if you don’t like what you see you can choose to block it.

Yeah… I stopped eating out at places that were “just okay”.

Like I’m willing to pay 4-5 euros for a “just okay” hamburger. But for 9 -15 I expect it to be top notch. If it isn’t top notch I’ll fire up the old frying pan myself and make a burger/fast food for like €. 3?

Germany took a step in the right direction marking afd as extremist at least.

“Let us share your data with 9999 of our partners”

Yeah I’m just going to block shitty websites that do this from now on.

It will be super idiotic when it turns out like the south park cartmanland theme park episode. First get rid of all immigrants, then let some back in for “mandatory jobs”. Then let some more back in because there still aren’t enough workers. Then let more back in since immigrants turn out to be good for the economy.

Yeah. The countries that can choose to not do trade with America and not suffer too much because of it.

That’s basically Trumps politics, making people suffer. Imagine voting for someone just because you want others to have it worse than you do. Like there is nothing to gain and everyone loses.

It’s not even stupidity, it just pure hatred and disdain for other people that fuels MAGA.

“Some of you might die, but that’s the price I’m willing to pay for it”. Literally Shrek-like cartoon villainy.

I think both of you are talking about extremes here lol.

One person is talking about shitty parents that refuse to correct their kids and the other about people that hate kids in general. Both can be true and annoying.

I do agree there are some completely unhinged people/comments in the comments section here…

Even the dumbest person knows how to be kind to others. You don’t have to be smart to not want to wish ill upon others.

People vote for Trump purely because they want others to suffer more than they do. If you vote for someone who wants to deport “brown people” then you know fully he won’t be kind to them. If you vote for someone who wants to punish others for doing trade then you know fully well people will suffer. If you think being gay, trans or whatever is a disease and people should be punished for it then there is something very wrong with you.

I indeed have no sympathy for people who voted for Trump. If you voted for him you’re an asshole and just want people to suffer.

Oh sweet, I’m going to try that! Thanks.

Same here. I’ve been playing it both streaming and locally.

How do you get the PC to wake from sleep? I have to go upstairs each time I want to play and physically start the PC.

No one (meaning less than 1% of people) will leave windows (sadly).

People are lazy as shit and rather swipe their credit cards and buy something new with windows than to even give Linux a chance.

99% of people really don’t give a shit about privacy or freedom when it comes to computers. Microsoft could slap handcuffs on them and point a camera at their screen (yes MS is already spying with telemetry, but try expaining that to a regular person) and they’d still use windows.

The rest of the world is not USA my man, my country has at least 10 political parties that go anywhere from progressive to conservative and being “right wing” can still mean they have ideas that support the environment or human rights.

We’re not all like the USA where you can choose between “the right” and the “ultra right” wing party.

There are right wing parties here that support Gretas ideas. And left wing parties that disagree with her.

I can completely understand her “both sides are bad” point since politics are wildly different in the EU from the US. We have actually choice here where as the US is just voting for the lesser evil (or the greater evil in case of Trump lol).

Yeah… I dont see this happening. Android has 99% shovelware crap. I dont see how any professional would be able to use Android instead of Windows, MacOS or Linux.

Android is garbage, and I’m saying this as an android user… The moment a serious Linux alternative is here for phones I’m gone (yes I’m aware Android is technically also “Linux”).

Just a few examples: the file system is a mess, good luck trying to easily save on network drives. There is no decent office suite and again using the files system to save documents in Android is a shitshow. There are Adobe products but they’re all watered down shitty versions of the desktop ones, the alternatives are even worse. Around every corner google tries to push it’s shitty cloud subscriptions, the telemetry is insane even compared to windows.

No Android is definitely not the future chromebooks were a mess too. And knowing Google they’ll just give up on anything they don’t seem profitable enough so even if they tried on desktop they’ll just pull the plug after 2 years.

If people complain about Linux being hard… give android a try as desktop OS it’s probably 10x worse. At least Linux comes with a decent office suite and decent networking capabilities.
