After a bit of searching I think people generally mean gnome 3 when they say gnome and gnome 2 is now known as Mate.

Is it gnome 3 (shell)?

I'm very wary of installing more extensions since I heard how many lucrative requests extension devs get from third parties for allowing them to enshittify their software.

I fear that part of the reason is that it isn't big enough yet for AstroTurf interest groups to care enough to invest into it. Although maybe AstroTurfing isn't included in the enshittification label?

For social media to work in the future I think there needs to be additional safeguards that keep enshittification at bay. But picking them will be a delicate art.

The problem with these rage inducing subreddits is that they seldom seem to propose or encourage any solution or alternative. So it ends up becoming a kind of circle jerk of learned helplessness.

It seems like a common internet thing. Rage bait and learned helplessness. We learn to accept that there's nothing to do because people and politicians are idiots because "look at all this stuff".

And often this aligns with advertising tech because it makes us engaged and seeking comfort of continued scrolling when we get a steady stream of anxiety injections. It's low key like an abusive relationship.

Actually a good point.

Shouldn't the flag be revealed in the last pane for it to work?

More like content farming right?

What software stack do you use for this?

It's just a reference to trade unions

I'm sure stranger things have happened in irl lore. Pirate Party (pp) comes to mind.
