The power of opensource.

I don’t think for myself, it’s primarily the fault of bots, misinformation and ads. It’s… Us. We’re not as interesting as we like to think we are and I have just gotten exhausted slogging through the “look what I can do” posts.

It’s much more rewarding for me to follow videos or threads of people actually creating something that interests me than it is to scroll through feeds consisting of online acquaintances posting memes, pics of purchases, food and locales.

My preferred medium is YouTube subs via freetube of channels whose content appeals to me(carpentry, car builds, mtb, etc). I don’t use any social aspects of the platform, I just like to watch the content.

This is why people can’t take desktop linux seriously.

That works in both directions. Don’t assume that the few that didn’t return are the ones that would have saved Reddit via incredible content.

If I had to watch an ad, deep fake or not, I’d just stop watching YT vids altogether.

This has been Tesla’s modus operandi since day one of Musk’s involvement and the bootlicking fanboys have helped blame the victims of the failures to keep legitimate claims from gaining ground in recalls.

You can still opt out by opting not to use Dropbox.

Say it isn’t so.

Anyways.

This is too vague to even discuss.

I ran a niche VW community and for a quarter of a year, I singlehandedly posted multiple posts daily. No downvotes, subscribers gained, 50+ up votes on some but practically 0 community engagement or content. Lemmy is too small still to support anything but politics or tech of a certain slant.

Donald was never “mentally sharp”.

I love anything that further sinks the site.

You seem angry.

Apple only so Fuck’em.

I highly doubt these mental midgets took care to properly hide their identity when making these calls. I’m fairly confident they could easily be round up and charged with criminal threats against an officer of the law.

Wikipedia said:

Estimates from 2021 suggest that of the entire U.S. population (332 million) about 63% is Christian (210 million).

12k just doesn’t seem like a newsworthy amount.

My issue(I think) is a combination of games utilizing anticheat(I’ve not gotten a single one to work yet) and also trying to play non-new games that were not designed during the Steam push for compatibility. I can’t use linux to play the games I like to play so I use a Win host for gaming and to run my linux install in a VM on the second screen.

I’ve got Grayjay on my phone but I very rarely watch YT on it so I’ve not really used it yet. Almost 100% of my watching happens on the PC and I’ve absolutely fallen in love with Freetube. No shorts spam, sponsorblock, more useful features on the player, it’s pretty fantastic.

Few games? Man, you and I are definitely having a different experience.

I don’t think the issue is performance though. The unspoken part of this comparison is in bold:

“Linux vs Windows tested in 10 games. In the games we could find that work on linux, the performance was 17% faster on average. In all the rest of the games, Windows worked 100% better.”
