I finally switched when I moved from Arch to Fedora and it’s worked fantastically for me. This is where the Linux desktop is heading now for sure.

People Make Games did a much better job on reporting the issues with Roblox.

I think the real issue is how Roblox takes advantage of kids lack of knowledge about microtransactions and FOMO to create a generation of free-to-play dupes while also exploiting anyone that makes content for them, but that’s just my opinion.

Damn the reddit energy is crazy in this thread

America is so cooked lol

Just become a gaming hermit that only emulates PS3 games and you’ll be fine.

It’s just wild to watch Bluesky fans stumble over themselves to say it’s part of a federated future and that it’s decentralized yada yada, when it takes millions of dollars to do with it what takes me $80 for a Raspberry Pi and $15 for a domain name to do with ActivityPub.

This is very recent news but there is a group of people on Bluesky that are looking at setting up their own PDS, but it feels clear to me that the system as designed is so heavily biased against third parties doing this. It’s just such a completely different vibe compared to ActivityPub platforms that are built so strongly around the goal of making it easy to do in order to make it more widely distributed.

I think Memento is open source. It’s good for subtitles->Anki cards.

My devices are named after planets from Doctor Who: mondas, telos, skaro, villengard.

God yeah, what a frustrating sentiment to see. Very common among people who won’t give the fediverse any modicum of good faith engagement. “This is different from what people are used to and is therefore bad” instead of understanding that maybe there’s a reason it’s built that way.

I always like to say the fruits of FOSS labour are the common heritage of mankind. It belongs to all of us as a public good, created and maintained by selfless workers. (Nevermind the fact that most FOSS projects are based out of Europe anyways).

They’re desperate to manufacture consent against their competition

Big agree. Lemmy is regressive in a few ways some of the time!

A little worried that with swapping those components like that, it’s trying to be too many things for too many different groups of people instead of one exact thing.

I think all I really want is something shaped like this with a keyboard, like an old Blackberry that could be used as a terminal.

Damn this thread really makes me feel like a minority, but I prefer GNOME! It comes useful out of the box, sane defaults, easy to extend without ripping out the soul of how it functions. Best of all it has a new and interesting direction for the desktop UI rather than just copying Windows. It has some original ideas that really serve it well.

I’ve found that sorting by New Comments is the best way to have a steady stream of interesting stuff on my feed at any given time.
