Glad I switched to Debian a few years ago.

Got tired of seeing that advertisement every time I logged in.

Fuck Canonical and whatever scumstains keep trying to profit off of people's low standards.

Those are all legitimate concerns that useful idiots have been conditioned to ignore.

Man, I miss when only half the first world was on the Internet.

We need barriers of entry to keep morons and their asinine rhetoric out.

I'd say a bigger issue is the adoption of non-free software.

It doesn't matter what language you choose; if you pick a non-free license then you are part of the problem.

He's not wrong, though.

There is way more social activism among Rust developers than other languages.

If you read the Rust manual, it even says at the very beginning that the entire purpose behind Rust is empowerment.

Just because people say things you don't like doesn't mean they're not true.

Rust isn't the problem.

It's the licensing.

It's not really childish if you understand the implications of choosing a license.

I'm tired of mornic losers being afraid to fight for what they believe in because it might make them look bad in front of their peers.

If you care about the subject, then you shouldn't let the opinions of idiots dictate your actions.

Fuck, I'm so tired of canonical's bullshit.

They used to be a boon for the free software ecosystem, now they're a detriment whenever it's convenient.

There are some scumbags in that company eager to profit off of lowering people's standards wherever possible.

Do not let them. They don't need a nicer campus.

He doesn't have to follow orders from you.

The average person is an idiot.

Friendica is the logical successor to facebook.

what’s the upshot for Meta here?

I'm a firm believer that there is some data point somewhere that indicates this will make them more money somehow, so that's why they do this.

These companies aren't run by people; they're run by data.

Money brings out the worst in people.

 

I just started my own Lemmy instance, and it looks to be mostly working.

The problem that I have is that the communities I went through the process of subscribing to only display up to 50 threads and no comments.

This looks like something I've seen on other servers, so I'm wondering what could be causing it and how to fix it.

ChatGPT says something about webfinger and nodeinfo, but I honestly have no idea what any of that is and there's no mention of it in https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/federation_getting_started.html
