Yeah except it's more like a room full of thousands of normal people and you saw two Nazis playing with each others' dicks in the back so you started calling the room a room full of Nazis.

Literally where? I've been browsing fairly regularly for at least the last week or so and haven't seen anything even slightly Nazi-ish.

Also the internet is not a physical space, the way the work is not the same.

I think it's one thing if the pharmacist just quietly handed off the task of providing the prescription to someone else who was there to keep things moving, but what seems like the attempt to deliberately obstruct was well over the line.

Overtaken? Where? I'm subscribed to like the most popular subs in this instance and I haven't seen anything even slightly related to any of this shit at all.

Then you'll always be led around by the nose by people you don't like. Block, move on. Be an adult. Other people don't need to decide on what everyone else can see. If you don't want to see it, you won't.

I mean they could add a diff thing, like how AUR helpers do it. It's not much, but it's something.

Do stable, use Flatpaks for anything you need to be newer. It works well.

That's because you very clearly had nothing to do with developing or maintaining Linux distros. You're just a user with an ego problem. There are plenty of explanations that exist now and then to explain why systemd was desirable, and why it ended up in basically every major Linux distro, including Arch and Debian, both of which are not corporate, but community developed.

Used to be Arch, now I shill for Debian.

Hard disagree. If people are following the rules, they should be allowed to exist.

Not really true. You don't necessarily need open source drivers for Linux to play well. There was actually a period where NVidia was the better option on Linux because their proprietary drivers were better than the alternatives. If the company cares to manage those drivers they will work well. That said, it looks like AMD has embraced FOSS and NVidia finally opened their other drivers, so things are looking up at least. Having binary blobs for certain shit is not ideal either, but I'll take it if it means more people will move to Linux and everything else will still be open.

Lmao this is the perfect reason for why de federation should be a last resort. Imagine being led around by the nose by random trolls with 10 minutes worth of effort.

No package manager, no thanks.

Slackware seems so tedious to me.

I would say the exact opposite if you're playing competitive FPS. Xorg tears and is super jittery like a motherfucker. Wayland is the only thing that properly drives my 240hz monitor.

Oh hey it's the same nonsense people have been saying for a decade now.

First of all, Linux is not Unix, and Unix principles were developed in like the fuckin 80s when what a computer is and does was different from what it is and does today. I'm betting you also use other software that doesn't follow the 'Unix' philosophy all the damn time, like, I dunno, the browser you used to post this nonsense. It was a guiding principle, not meant to be a dogmatic religious ideology. Also it not being the best choice for low memory embedded devices doesn't mean anything. It was designed for the desktop. These are very different platforms with very different needs. That's like complaining that the wheels on my car don't let it fly.

Also, bent the knee to who?

Shitty, but it’s not like NVidia didn’t do more and worse.

I’d prefer it if AMD wasn’t doing this shit, but I’ll probably be sticking with them as long as their providing a quality Linux experience.

Create a set of rules, hold people to them, and enforce them fairly and impartially. Bans and defederation should not be for people whose opinions you don't like - it should be reserved for people who cannot communicate in any meaningful / respectful way. Spammers, and trolls basically.

Which is why the easiest thing to do is just have the discussions. If someone wants to act as if they're just a regular person bringing up crime statistics about black people or something, just engage in good faith and present your counter. If they're genuine, you've provided a genuine response, if they're not, you're still winning because their goal is to either prove you can't ask certain questions or that people are hiding from the truth. Also, you automatically get an opportunity to influence any 3rd parties simply reading the exchange.

Depends on what you mean for security/privacy. You can use Tails or whatever and have everything encrypted and then just be logging into your Facebook account on Chrome without an ad blocker.

Most Linux distros are secure enough for the average person who isn’t being targeted by some crazy state level actor. If you’re particularly concerned stick with a distro that has a security team like Debian. As for privacy that has more to do with the sites you browse and have accounts with but obviously avoid Google (I just use Firefox instead of Chrome) use an adblocker like ublock origin, along with maybe something like decentraleyes.

It's good for Ukraine in the context of the war. You don't have to approve of the group itself. Also, who cares if they're fascist? They're already bad enough just from their actions as a PMC group.
