  • Dumbing things down is a sign of respectlessness towards the audience. So no. I am not doing this. I sometimes write things in a shorter way due to the nature of the medium, though.

    But my Mastodon instance is configured to allow up to 5000 character per message, so there is plenty of space if I feel like.

  • Today I learned that there are THREE Sonic movies.

  • Any advice?

    Not getting an account on a dead corporate-owned social media platform?

  • I think Mozilla should focus on that. Yes. But instead they sink money in AI bullshit and other so-called "social" projects that have nothing to do with web browsers or their standards.

    Focussing on the browser means focussing on web standards, too.

  • Since basically forever I use DejaVu Sans for UI elements and DejaVu Mono for the terminal.

  • Yeah, don't let us be too nitpicky here. They intentionally make it not run on Linux because of their spyware. So it's entirely their fault.

  • Maybe I'm a bit stupid, but where the fuck is the code in that repo? All files seem to be just some sort of structured meta data and stuff.

  • that’s not the developers fault.

    Forcing Ring0 spyware on the users IS the developers fault by 100%.

  • That poor IT support person:

  • I think the reason is stupid and it is contrary to what I expect from dockerized applications.

  • lolwhat

    Did you miss the part where Mozilla spends most of their money for not the browser?

  • The money sources are not the issue. The money sinks are. An no-one ever yelled at Mozilla to offer a VPN.

  • Their other projects mostly exist, because those make money.

    Except the projects that don't make money.

  • docker ps or Portainer as a nice web-UI wrapper around the Docker commands are the two main use cases with Docker I have have on a regular basis.

    No, thank you. I am not going to maintain fifty containers and fifty + X volumes for just a handful of applications and will alway prefer self-contained applications over applications that spread over multiple containers for no real reason.

  • See it in a broader scope. If I’d only host Lemmy with is multiple mandatory things, I couldn’t care less, but I already have some other applications that I run via Docker. Fortunately I was able to keep the footprint small, no multiple containers or volumes for one application, but as said: those exist. And they would clutter the setup and make it harder to maintain an manage.

    I also stand by my point that it is counter-intuitive to have multiple containers and volumes for just one single application.

  • I said it elsewhere already, but the new logo reminds me of a broken OSD from a really old CRT television where the channel number wasn't overlayed but directly added to the video stream by the tuner hardware.

  • If you want to stay within the fediverse, maybe have a look at federated blogging/publishing platforms like WriteFreely or Plume. (Both are also selfhostable).

    Edit:

    WriteFreely: https://writefreely.org/
    Plume: https://joinplu.me/

  • They could also stop all this nonsense crap projects they sink money in without any real benefit, and focus mainly on the browser. This would give the browser likely 500% more funding than it has right now.

    Have one product, but make it a perfect product.
