The problem is, it's more than just the upvote. I don't ban people for a single upvote, even on something bigoted, because it could be a misclick. What I normally do is have a look at the profiles of people who upvote dogwhistle transphobia, stuff that many cis admins wouldn't always recognise. And those upvotes point me at people's profiles, and if their profile is full of dog whistles, then they get pre-emptively instance banned.

I use people upvoting bigoted and transphobic content to help locate other bigoted and transphobic accounts so I can instance ban them before they post hate in to our communities.
This takes away a tool that can help protect vulnerable communities, whilst doing nothing to protect them.
It's a step backwards

We're on a similar timeline! I've been using Linux fulltime for about the same length of time, after multiple previous attempts to make it stick

I use digikam with sidecar files on my main photo editing PC.
We sync this directory with a media server on the local network that enables all of the local devices to access the photos and tags. In theory, it means we could run digikam on another device as well, and sync data between them via updates to the sidecar files, but in practice, we don't do this and the media server is effectively read only.
Then, we sync the media server images with a photoprism instance that we have running on external hosting. Photoprism recognises the keywords and sidecar data from digikam, which lets me search and access the images from anywhere.
Cachy Zen 4 is running nicely on my PC!
If you only speak to people with years of experience, how exactly do people develop that experience?
Oh, Flex Launcher looks perfect! I didn't even know I needed it!
At the moment, fish doesn't know what to do with run0. When that changes, I'll start using it :)
I got a new PC. I installed Windows on it. I felt dirty, so I said fuck it, and installed Linux instead.
It wasn't any one specific thing, but a lifetime of windows frustrations adding up, on top of a growing frustration with enshittified tools and services in general
