It will probably split and congregate around instances focusing on heavy moderation and KYC vs crypto-focused free-for-all ones if they ever gain traction.

And we won't be the cool protagonist with sleek looking augs and doing parkour with Icarus either. We'll be the ones hooked on neuropozyne hoping for our implants not going haywire at some point.
It's incredle how public perceptions change, huh? Bill Gates was considered the devil back when MS was steamrolling against open source software.
I would absolutely use a VM with no internet connection for these, but then all bets are off if those softwares need direct access to GPU, for example. GPU passthrough is a thing, but I haven't had much luck personally.
I'm worried about the link rot problem when the specific instance used as source goes down.
The oldest one was using Flash.
I'm so sorry my dude, no one deserves that kind of suffering.
I use linux at home everyday but I'm stuck with windows at work. I just wanna scream.
Definitely an issue. I can't count the times I've slammed my head because the stupid settings screen "conveniently" switches from the previous item to another while I still expected it to open a new window just like the command panel.
Didn't they learn that taking away what people grew up with for more than two decades already will result in outraged customers? (Windows 8 - start menu removed and replaced by start screen)
I've been using linux for about a decade. I only know how to maintain my system and google when troubles arise. I'm pretty comfortable with my setup and would love to see many make that jump as well. However, I have to concede that corporate environments add a whole another dimension to the problem.
No joke. Opening a command line from windows by itself is considered hacking by many. Even toggling dark mode in websites triggers that fear.
Agreed, the foss-friendly image is just a facade. MS is never going to commit to open source as it directly threatens their bloodline.
