Came here to say this.

I meant tipping in general. Of course with delivery, there is no room for anything exceptional. Therefore it's exactly zero tip every time from me, they are doing their job. But fortunately tipping here is not expected, that's what their salaries are for.

Good. We shouldn't start that shit what's going on in the US. That's why I never tip, unless it's a really, really, exceptionally good service when they went out of their way to handle me.

Okay, but. Are they Marxist-Leninist? Pro-China? Socialists? Anti-capitalists? Looks like: yes. Was the whole thing founded on the grounds of free, shared things and anti-corporate thinking? Also yes. Do we absolutely know for sure that the ML domain was chosen because of this? No, because the fucking register of the domain himself said it was chosen because it was free.

It was simply just free. People and their "knowledge" about topics they don't know anything about...

Dessalines is the owner of the domain, one of the owners of the ML instance and one of the full-time devs of the Lemmy code.

I think an overwhelming number of people simply chose that instance becuase it was the instance, made by the devs themselves. At least it was the case for me.

I would do the same as was the case with cinemas: anybody can buy any streaming content. If you produce a movie, you are forced to sell it to anybody who is willing to buy it. (Just like every cinema can have any movie which wasn't the case back then. There were specific cinema exclusives before the law forced this shit out.)

Yes, multiple times. It usually go this way:

  • the installer starts
  • I click on next a few times
  • it asks the key
  • next
  • next
  • nextnextnextnext
  • the desktop shows up about 20-30 mins later

It's literally a nightmare.
