The most positive action in a long time. Treat them as the terrorists that they are.

It will be a slow and painful death. I abandoned Reddit last year because enshittification. However, some great stuff from there lands here in Lemmy.and my search engine seems to like Reddit info. Not going back, but sentimental thoughts exist.

After searching for signs of intelligence, for several hours before they concluded that he was either a buffoon or a genious. After a brief discussion they decided that buffoon was too generous and scaled back their estimates of his intelligence

I use Darktable and GIMP for my photography workflow. Its good but not great. Affinity is worth trying for me and probably many others. I’ve been on the cusp of loading a modified version of windows onto a machine. Hopefully this works

We appear to have a similar affliction. I’m let down terribly by a lack of expertise, and so take a best alternative in most cases. My VPN is Mullvad. I’m due renewal in the next 2 months so will be pondering simple renewal vs switching to ProtonVPN. The purity of Mullvad privacy is wasted on me as the only real difference appears to be the option to pay by bitcoin or cash. Proton appears to have more options and less likely to be blocked if you go away on holiday etc.

I am in a similar situation but in healthcare. Nothing save as the web-front ends are any use in linux. Some information systems are built on linux, but we need a Windows machine to use them, Hopefully the slow European gentle tilt to FOSS might help.

Maybe you enjoy the “getting it to work” part more than me. I went from RPi to a cheap used miniPC from eBay. Installed Debian and bought a wireless keyboard with touchpad. Cheap and so much simpler. Plays all my flac music through Strawberry, plays all my movies at home and away. Easiest VPN setup, I don’t use smart functions of my TV, just the miniPC for everything.

To me, that’s the same as “Five reasons not to invite a renowned scammer and con artist into your home”. Unfortunately, my work colleagues think its normal and what else can they do but shrug.

This one is about Reddits chaos No different to the unfettered Nazi bullshit. Extremely unlikely that Reddit can be accused of being too woke or Pro-Islam.

There was a long time, up to just a couple of years ago that Puppy was always on my keyring for just this. I loved it. I’ll be rocking it again now I’m reminded

This definitely looks like a project to follow

That would never have been something that I’d thought of by myself. Very grateful!, than you.

Thank you, especially so for the relative risk view.

A secret laboratory!

Ooh, very interesting, bookmarked, thank you

Thanks, bookmarked and depending upon my ability to learn, plus time available, this, or something like it may be the way for me.

You know what, I’ve been the guy that didnt in the past. Your reminder is spot on

This is valuable, thank you
