I stand corrected. Thanks!

I would argue a move away from GPL is a bad idea. I am surprised Ubuntu explicitly mentioned licensing, and not technical reasons, as a reason for this move.

EDIT: I misread the point about Canonical focusing on licensing as their main driver for the move.

I see. I vaguely remember testing out CardDev 10+ years ago. To start with even switching the client would be good.

Cheers!

I am assuming you would have to manually export contacts to a cloud location, import into Fossify and then do occasional cloud syncs?

Am I understanding this correctly? Would love to move away from Google contacts (every little step helps).

That’s not good. Revenge / doxxing on this scale should be followed up on.

Isn’t this not possible just for Lemmy itself? E.g. programmatically moving a community (post, comments, subs, automatic redirect etc) from one instance to another.

Seems like relatively minor changes. At any rate, this will only impact Pixel devices, I am sure OneUI and other skins will have their own evolutions and adaptions.

I am not that well acquainted with WINE, but I do know there are examples where WINE does not work well.

Some win95 / win98 software doesn’t work all that well on Windows 10/11. It’s mostly stuff that was targeted for the early releases of Windows and cannot be run in DOS (or the DOS version is more primitive than the Window aversion).

One example:

It’s mostly games and random educational releases like the one above.

I heard about Ice Cubes for Mastadon being good for iOS, but I have no personal experience with it.

I use Tusky for multiple Mastodon accounts and it works very well. I can recommend it.

Elmo saying the Fediverse is full of pedos is like a stamp of approval for the Fediverse. It means it’s a working and viable solution to getting rid of American oligarch influence on social media.

I am well aware of the difference between 95/98 and 2000/XP. I actually used 95/98 and eventually switched to 2000 and then XP.

Turns out that ReactOS is indeed focused on turn of the millennium NT support. They say their target is Windows Server 2003.

I always thought that 95/98 era support was also a key goal due to he history of the project.

A text editor is a whole different beast than cloning Windows 95/98/2000. I will note that ReactOS isn’t simply building a compatibility layer, their end goal is to allow users to actually run unmodified driver binaries from that era to get hardware working.

Why would you go with over ReactOS?

They are far closer to cloning Windows 95/98/2000.

I never said you did.

Are threats bad? Why are threats bad?

They probably thought you were fucking around and then saw the shitpost replies and decided to shut things down to not shit up the comm.

I am assuming a comm like no stupid questions gets a lot of trolling and random shitposts.

Brah! No wonder that thread got deleted.
