At this point I'm convinced that the new windows feature announcements are just ads for linux

I heard that the creator of the MMO had people they knew within ycombinator at the time. I wonder if it's something similar this time around. Eitherway, it's not a good look for ycombinator

Now run Doom on it.

"don't be evil"

Forgejo (what codeberg uses) can be selfhosted too

If you don't care about Nintendo games. Go for the deck 100%

Or . . at this point, if you don't have a very good reason to keep using windows, (eg: work, professional software unavailable on linux/through wine), just stop making concessions for windows and use Linux.

This just reads as "here's a pill to make that stick up your ass hurt less" just pull it out ffs

Next they'll say "not giving your entire life savings to google considered harmful".

Thank you. I was not aware of it. Uninstalling now

I was banned for "Rule 4" which, by digging through their rules (which weren't as easy to find as I expected it to be) I learnt that it was "Illegal content". I literally never posted a comment, post or had ANY kind of interaction on lemmy before. THIS would be my first comment.

Detaching basic features from an existing free product and making people pay a subscription for it.

OH NO. anyway

I'm not commenting on implementation itself but rather on how Mozilla went about with an opt-out approach into the collection program (even if it was for testing) to a community they have cultivated with the promise of privacy.

Collecting my data is a big deal. It doesn't matter how it is used. I should at least consent to it.

Some people are going to bounce off, but this kind of publicity for linux from the once most subscribed youtube channel is great. Most videos about linux don't exactly fit the recommendation bill for a lot of Youtube viewers. Also not to mention that he emphasizes that he is "not a tech guy". And to add to that, his channel is a primarily gaming channel meaning people will not write linux off thinking it can't play any games.

If nothing else, I bet a good chunk of people will be crediting this video as the reason why they got into linux/FOSS and even STEM in general in the future.

Oh that has already happened. Second generation blizzard nepobaby PirateSoftware, misunderstood the goals of the initiative, started spouting personal hate towards Ross and made a video out of his stream for his large following months ago. People aren't exactly a fan of the guy because of another controversy. He generally never likes admitting he's wrong and apologizing for it. Always doubles, triples, quadruples down.

So that video he made got added to the list, big name drama/gaming news channels picked it up and got the ball rolling.

Kinda worried that nothing comes out of this because Ross did mention that he is aware of some amount of botting and, people making mistakes and also fake ones. Which is why reaching that 1.4 mill goal is important. The initiative has technically reached the goal but not 100% of the signatures are legit.

Chrome has become the baseline to support for every kind of web application out there since every major browser other than firefox and safari is a chrome reskin anyway
