Yall the real mvps, thanks lemmings! I tune out a bit on the world news, always more to be depressed about lol.

Why is this trending so much lately? I only know it’s autism candy or something

Most of the time I have the opposite. I dread going out, and hope that the plans get canceled. But when I’m there I really do enjoy it, and I’m glad I didn’t pussy out.

21 graaaams of shroooooooooommmms!!!

Lol got a good chuckle from that last line. Fair enough, if any social interaction is politics than most things are political. Still most people, or more acturate me, think about governmental politics when u say “politics”. Social dynamics might a better word for what you describe imo.

Hmmm then we have different definitions of politics. Quite easy to just call everything politics

It only matters if you can influence it, and your vote counts. Here in my country your vote is basically useless. And the people don’t the have balls like in Nepal to torch their government if needed. Can idealize and act intellectual all you want by caring about politics, but if there is no influence to be had as the people then you’re just mentally jerking off

Google and privacy in the same sentence… Lol

Gotta love how devs and engineers are supposed to be on the front lines of innovation and progression. But most of the it’s just moaning and calling the next gen dumb. 15 years ago the current devs would be called dumb for using Frameworks amd how it’s cheating since it’s not self written. Do your part and educate and guide the next gen instead of complaining about tech evolving and being used.

Lemmy has that same problem, maybe even worse since our user base is way smaller

Aye but things like same account use isn’t quite there yet.

As in, you can connect your phone to a pc and use it from there. But then u can’t use it on your phone, while connected with another device… if i remember correctly.

At one point I had a group chat with my phone, home desktop, and work laptop. Whereas whatsapp u just connect once and go.

It’s probaly to secure your privacy and technical stuff under the hood…

It’s a great app nonetheless, so I shall always shill it over Signal lol.

So now suddenly us lemmy linux tech nerds forgot about mass…🙄.

Unless that isn’t possible to run, then correct me pls

Aaaaaand that’s enough lemmy for today

YouTube Cineby.app HiAnime. Better not misspell Hianime lol ;)

SimpleX, best anonymity. Not really what u are asking for in terms of use case. It’s a great messenger app, but still needs some refining in their UX. But I still like to mention it. Probably Signal then.

Their business model is data harvesting. So more users is just a win. Still better than paying them

ZorinOS. Looks modern, works 96% of the time.

Pls don’t discourage content like this. Lemmy has enough politics and drama. I need stuff like this in my feed or I’m out.

Surveillance capitalism at it’s finest. The biggest problem I find is:

If our data is so valuable just pay me for it, for fuck sake! There should me a model that pays me for my data.

People tend to shit on Brave for their Attention Token model, but I find it a step in the right direction.

Luckily linux does 95% of the work for you nowadays! Follow a 15 min tutorial on youtube, and pick Zorin or Mint. No configuring drivers, no setting up grub. Modern distros truly are a Penguin blessing. Want software? Open de software center and click install!
