A sample size of 1 isn't really meaningful.

Also, this post is refuting a claim that isn't really being made? At least not literally.

Cue the Lemmy users confidently suggesting you just convince your workplace to migrate to Linux.

How do you know the features are making the browser slower?

How are you quantifying the increase in weight?

Order of operations is too ambiguous, needs more parentheses

    Then tell them what your pronouns are? I don't get the issue here.

    Ok. How do I get my friend group to use Revolt?

    What's stopping you from using Ecosia? Your searches could plant trees! (www.ecosia.org)

    Ecosia is a search engine that aggregates search results from multiple other search engines. The ad revenue from our searches funds the planting of trees worldwide. With over 200 million trees planted so far, Ecosia have learned to be fully transparent about their projects, and financials which are available right on that...

    After switching to Kagi, I see no reason to return to an ad-supported search engine.

    You're linking to a halfhearted attempt at an exposé written by someone who acts unreasonable towards any attempts at clarification.

    virtually no exposure at all

    That is not correct: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40011314

    Why wouldn't it be legal?

    Again, why would it not fly in the EU?

    I've seen hearsay that there have been Yuzu patches specifically to aid compatibility with TOTK before it was officially out, which would have greatly supported the "mainly/primarily used for piracy" argument in court.

    Just why do people on Lemmy need to turn every unrelated post into some anti-capitalist rant?

    The last major holdout that is also financially dependant on Google. Chromium has consumed the internet in all but name.

    Thing is, people don't need the Discord experience. People need the people and servers that are on Discord.

    By that logic, is not updating for several months incorrect behaviour?

    If so, that would be quite problematic, since even other rolling distros like Tumbleweed don't have this problem.

    Honestly it's a great way to get people who just read the title to self-report.

    People don't actually care about the article, they're just here to circlejerk about their hate for commercial software.

    The amount of hue shift in that phone display in the photo is hilarious.

    This community has a heavy bias against Windows. Expect more of those kinds of headlines to show up in here.

    I did it too. Most of my contacts were not willing to switch. My colleagues at work stayed in their WhatsApp group, and many of my close friends did too. I essentially cut myself off from most of my social circles and threw myself into social isolation. Not a good time.

    I ended up rejoining WhatsApp and concluded that in this instance, my mental health is more valuable than the privacy I gain by not participating in WhatsApp.

    All the people that reply saying "But it is easy, I did it" fail to realize that their personal circumstances can't just be applied to everyone else.

    USB-C earbuds exist. No one is "forcing" you to do anything.

    "Hey I have a problem with my Samsung"

    "Drop it and get an iPhone instead"

    This is what you guys are like.

    Just once I would love to open one of these threads without seeing people spam "USE LINOOX INSTEAD!"

    HKayn ,
    @HKayn@dormi.zone avatar

    Problem is, whenever you try taking about Microsoft, someone just has to interject and be like "yeah you should be using Linux instead"

    HKayn ,
    @HKayn@dormi.zone avatar

    And you people are doing a great job driving people away from Linux.

    HKayn ,
    @HKayn@dormi.zone avatar

    they are telling you to get out of your abusive relationship with Microsoft

    And how well has that worked so far?

    HKayn ,
    @HKayn@dormi.zone avatar

    How many people have you managed to convert in this thread?

    HKayn ,
    @HKayn@dormi.zone avatar

    If that's what you think will improve how the Linux community is perceived, then do go on.

    HKayn ,
    @HKayn@dormi.zone avatar

    Oh I wasn't talking about me.

    HKayn ,
    @HKayn@dormi.zone avatar

    If you switched 3 years ago, you haven't been converted in this very thread.

    You misunderstood what the metaphor was.

    HKayn ,

    But Linux can do everything that Windows can!!!! :)))) /s

    Fair use doesn't exist in all countries though.

    I haven't used Skiff myself, but I would guess that that's what it was. Proton and Tuta also feature E2E encryption, and it's exactly how it works there, too.

    Where does it say that you need one?
