fwiw, I suspect Hexbear users expect snark more. It's basically the default mode in a bunch of comms.

From the name, I expected a Hannah Montana Linux type distro.

The easiest way would be to quickly look up the ones you don't know yet. Many have Wikipedia pages and the others usually have good home pages explaining what they do. But as you can see, there's a wide range for hosting different kinds of media and discussions.

What does that have to do with Cory's concerns? They don't want to build an audience on Bluesky because that promotes Bluesky, a dangerous place to build up, in the view given by the article. It would be neglectful to let it gain enough power to become a Twitter 2.0, we have an opportunity to prevent us repeating history.

The more important thing is to never pretend your vote is a valuable political action.

If you think there's a point to voting and picking a lesser evil, go ahead, but at the end of the day you must admit that no viable candidate is adequate. Both major parties are the playthings of the owner class, not representatives of the population. The last 4 years have demonstrated that clearly; the house always wins because the game is rigged. The point being, voting cannot and will not solve these systematic problems.

If you want to stop the descent into hell, you have to actually participate in political organization beyond the electoral circus.

Thinking of the projects I work on, I don't understand the value in categorizing by language, rather than theme (~/Development/Web/, ~/Development/Games/) or just the project folders right there.

That's serious stuff if true. I would often the upload date to avoid reuploads and regurgitated (and lower visual quality) content. It's also extremely useful to know how outdated some advice or guide is.

I assume you also have to trust the servers which the accounts you're messaging are stored on. (Although there are real situations where all users will be on the same server, where this is obviously a great benefit.)

It turns out, mods are gods.

I don't see irony there. I think calling this FOSS community 'filled with Linux-crazed people' is a stretch, but even then, it's very different to:

spoiler'd for long image

or even just hating a niche product whatsoever. It's not like Linux is EEE'ing or being invasive, so it's hard to equivocate being a passionate fan to being a passionate hater.
