You got some serious reading comprehension issues. I am talking about you.

“akchually, there wasn’t enough racist comments”. One racist comment is too much.

That VC money was the start of the end. No reassurance can be trusted the moment a company accepts VC funding. It’s only a matter of time until Bitwarden makes their next enshittification move.

The direction that the company is taking. Clearly that Bitwarden feels like other open source projects are diverting revenue from them.

That’s a small step towards enshittification. They close this part of the software, then another part until slowly it is closed source.

We’ve seen this move over and over.

Stopping your business with Bitwarden over that issue sends a message that many customers don’t find this acceptable. If enough people stop using their service, they have a chance to backtrack. But even then, if they’ve done it once, they’ll try it again.

Your current price is 10$/year now. But the moment a company tries to cull any open source of their project is the moment they try to cash it in.

Just killed a man…

Corpos are spending countless resources to infiltrate anything with as much as a iota of traction so that they can bleed the cow cash dry and sell its carcass for money.

Even if you distrust the corpos and want them to die, the majority of the population has so much trouble just surviving that its hard to raise up against that bullshit

In an ideal world yes, but we’ve learned nothing from the Dotcom bubble, or the 2008 housing bubble.

If there is money to be made, history will repeat itself.

Discord, at one point, was better than a lot of other app on the market, and they were one of the first where you could just create an account and join any group, for free.

It became the standard, and now we’re stuck with that shit

VC funding is basically gambling, trying to find the next billion dollar company. So they throw money at anything that has any semblance of traction to get in early and cash out when the time comes.

This is my grandpa time, but I love Cinnamon for the less modern UI.

The new UI won’t bother me a cent, but I really disliked KDE for no apparent reason, and Cinnamon hit right what I like about a UI.

I understand that a lot of things can be customized, but I am talking about OoB experience.

The tenants literally pay the taxes, insurance and maintenance in their rent payment. When any of these inflates, so does the rent unless there are protections in place.

So being a landlord means someone else pays the mortgage for your unit.

The only thing that could be seen as a service are short term rental, and even then, it was abused to death by the AirBnB/VRBO and any other short term rental service.

Rent seeking is the most capitalistic thing someone can do : you use your money to get someone else to pay your rent. You do the minimal maintenance that you can get away with, and when you actually do real maintenance, your tenants get a rent hike.

If there weren’t any landlord, there would still be housing. But a lot more people would own the place they live in, at a reasonable price, instead of housing being used as an investment vehicule.

Makes sense. Posix was created a long time ago and there are most probably some features that could be changed

What part of posix is redox trying to get away from?

Depends what you want in an OS. The increasingly invasive ads and loss of control in Windows is overwhelmingly a good enough reason for me. But it is not the case for everyone.

Linux has its quirks, and it’s a different approach to an OS in general, so it can be intimidating if you only want an office machine.

Because the CEO is probably having an existential dread crisis and needs to do something about it. So he fucks up the logo because he can, and fuck you. Now watch Mozilla ads from their newly acquired Ad company.

I will try out Debian, which uses Wayland by default. So hopefully I will get what I need for my DE.

Otherwise, if nothing works for me, I always go back to Ubuntu if I really don’t like Debian.

Thanks for the insight, it is really useful. I’ll spin up Debian on my work laptop for sure and I’ll see how it feels to decide for my personal PC.

NVIDIA didn’t ask to shut it down, but AMD lawyer probably weren’t that hot to what the project had become and AMD asked the creator to shut down the project l, which he did.

But yeah, lots of work wasted caused by pencil pushers and bean counters.

I am thinking of going Debian as well since I like Ubuntu on my work laptop.

I would like to use the same OS for both PC since I am not a power user yet, but I am tempted by endeavourOS to dip my toes into arch linux.

I don’t want to have too big of a productivity loss at work (don’t care at home), so I am thinking to switch to Debian for work, and EndeavourOS on my personal PC to gain experience with it. If I like endeavourOS a lot, then I can switch my work laptop to it as well.

Isn’t it how most Linux users progress?

AMD asked them to shut it down. So the guy is going to go back to the pre-AMD release and work independently from there.
