This is Beehaw and we aim to be a nice place, right? So to me is kind of pointless this kind of discussions and I just meant to say that your comment sounded very judgemental and it could be written in a nicer way, that's all.

Edit: Check OP's new comment on the post.

I've had this happen and did upload the selfie but I think it happened because I was blocking some extra stuff that it was flagging my account to be automated

If you phrased your initial question differently or asked more details about OP's use case I think it would be completely fine. For example, they might be the "sys admin" where they live but their family members would be extremely annoyed if they tried to push Linux.

Just kind tired of the "you cannot ask for FOSS alternatives if you are using something proprietary" and ended up venting because of your comment, that's all.

I knew I was going to find a comment like this and I am disappointed that I did.

It is hard for people to make transitions specially because they probably used Windows their own life. If they are asking for a FOSS firewall they most likely know they should transition to Linux at some point. There is actually no need to be the questioning person.

I use arch btw

I'd say because fortran is often used for calculations such as numerical analysis where you have x, y and z for example.

I have written fortran code in the past and it was mainly for that.

The only reason I stopped using my iPod was because I lost it. 🥲

It was my companion for many many years, I think I lost it in 2016 or something. I recently started considering getting another one, but I honestly wouldn't like having to install iTunes just for it.

I always try to keep in mind there are a lot of people that are simply unable to transition to alternative apps because they lack knowledge and time to do research on such things. What we see through videos isn't the majority of the people, it is people that make content for the majority.

People have hard times getting into more technical stuff already. Expecting people that are struggling to survive in capitalism to spend their free time learning about underground alternatives or to turn into sys admins and host their own stuff is out of touch if reality in my opinion.

Edit: just wanted to add, I wouldn't say the problem is on the people, but on big tech that predates on them

I think it is weird they didn't say anything before, considering Dorsey deleted his account 8 months ago.

Are you assuming he was the one behind the decision of not using ActivityPub?

If the gamers are pissed I am happy

I'm referring to this and this

I'm wondering if that's going to stay up for long considering what happened with the Suyu team last month.

Drip - Keeping track of menstrual cycles (If you have it lol) Tempo - Music client for navidrome Clima - Weather app Telegram FOSS - Alternative to the proprietary client Aegis Authenticator - 2FA app

I accidentally scratched its back in a way that ruined it while trying to remove the cpu cooler

I tried using ChatGPT for making cover letters a while ago but the results were terrible, I do better just writing them myself.

It was fine but now I feel awful since I destroyed my desktop motherboard

Tax the rich

It’s now written as if it was dangerous to use mull which isn’t

Have you read the thread? Honestly for me it was very painful to read it because you had good arguments with good sources and the replies were all people expressing their own personal opinions. This isn't good for a place looking to be a reference.

And now there's someone else asking for it to be removed

Rust, so we could have a lemmy fork 🤡
