Samsung user here. I'm working with a Galaxy S22 Ultra, Galaxy Tab S7+ and a Dell XPS 9310 running Fedora. Set KDE Connect to never sleeping on the Samsung devices and it will work flawlessly. Transferring files, copy paste between devices, notifications etc just work for me. The only platform where I felt KDE Connect didn't work smoothly was my Windows gaming machine. I gave in and just used the Microsoft phone connect app for that machine but everything else it's KDE all the way.
The guy openly posted that the FBI wouldn't dare raid him because they'd get a 45 ACP in the face. I'm no law enforcement apologist but that kind of boast can put people on edge.
Specific threats of violence should never be acceptable.
The very saddest thing is that people don't know Firefox is a non profit trying to protect their privacy and instead choose Chrome. It's almost like they want to be owned and subjugated by big business.
I saw an earlier post that showed Lemmy's recent rapid growth followed by a plateau and then slight decline. My feeling is that there is a very LOUD minority of Lemmy users that are trying to act as self-anointed gatekeepers and they're bringing the platform down as a direct consequence. It makes the platform look petty and small to new and existing users alike. If the top posts are continually about shaming other users then this platform isn't going to last. Let's focus on building communities and having interesting conversations rather than one upping each other.
My take is that newer hardware runs best with Fedora. I'm honestly not sure what combination of kernel choice, Gnome version etc makes the difference but the fact I don't have to worry about those things is the beauty of Fedora.
I found out about Lemmy BECAUSE of Sync. I'm a huge FOSS supporter but that doesn't mean I'll trash anything that isn't open source.
Much more importantly, I'd really like to see Lemmy succeed against data mining trash like Reddit. Let's not dissuade potential converts coming over from Reddit with this gatekeeping nonsense. These manipulative parasitic social media companies are the real enemy here. Sync is one guy making one app with a one time purchase. Everyone is still welcome to use open source apps, the website or any other means of accessing the community.
Sync is not your enemy.
