XMPP would be the best choice at this point in time, as it doesn’t suffer the downfalls of Matrix (though even Matrix would be better than Discord).
This is a summary from @Essence_of_Meh@lemmy.world:
TL;DW:
This is a simplified version of simplified version.
Not everyone has the ability or spare time to become skilled in every field. Calling them lazy and illiterate for not learning a complicated thing (when they may already be learning some other complex subject) is kinda the definition of elitism.
Don’t be an elitist bung hole, dude.
At least the CCP is open to criticism and debate about their actions back then. If you go to Tiananmen today, you will see and hear a lot of discussion of this troubling time in China’s recent history.
Yes, that’s one of the CCP’s best qualities, to be sure. It’s so rare to see a government actively encourage their citizens to discuss such major events,
You will need to create a new account, but it is possible to export all of your subscriptions to a new account. There should be a thing you can click for that in your settings menu to download the export file, which you would then import into your new account.
Your old comments will not transfer, however.
GNU Taler could replace Paypal, we can only hope.
Yarr, matey.
I’d recommend asking around lemmy.dbzer0.com, in the sailing community.
But it’d be easier to switch to Linux Mint, if you don’t have a critical windows app that doesn’t work in wine.
For anyone else reading this and thinking about trying linux for the first time, be sure to use Linux Mint. It will give you the smoothest and easiest experience, and you pretty much never need the terminal. It even comes with a really nice software store (but everything is free).
“Oh, Oh! You’re sayin’ yes? you’re sayin’ go for it then, orb? Right.”
God it’s brilliant.
Gah! I wish so desperately that wasn’t the case, but I can’t dispute that. It really does feel like without investment in our rail network, there’s no good way of long distance travel, so it’s currently just a shit sandwich all around.
Sublinks and piefed don’t compete with lemmy, or at least, they don’t weaken the ecosystem since they are all inter compatible.
I hope that prompts more funding into Amtrak if people do opt for that!
That’s not great… I can only hope more people opt for trains instead this time.
Silver lining: less flights booked means less emissions for the environment.
History tells us that 85% of these people will move to Windows 11 despite what they say.
The interesting rub this time is the hardware. There’s tons of still powerful and useful CPU’s in use today that don’t support Windows 11’s TPM 2.0, so I wonder if that will push a few more people to Linux than when Windows 7 was EOL.
Everyone loves to masterbate to how “bad these companies are”, dude you CHOSE them.
I think the point of the video is that there are backroom deals that secure Microsoft being chosen. The new mayor of Munich is a clear example of conflict of interest. Microsoft is clearly lobbying the French government as well.
The OG comment is referencing the body of this post, which are stats from the website. The website is using outdated steam stats, the comment is pointing that out.
The comment you replied to that was pointing that out was not corrolating the steam stats as general linux stats, only pointing out that the linux userbase on steam has grown since those outdated stats.
I think the original comment in this chain was mentioning that the stats from the statcounter website were using really outdated data for the percentage of Linux users on steam, I don’t think they were relating that stat to overall Linux usage.
She had a (non-cancerous) brain tumor, which she did a few videos about treating. I hope that’s behind her forever as well. :(
