I respect your opinion, thank you for sharing it 😊

Ironic, since GitHub is neither open source nor federated. Plus its Microsoft 🤢🤮

Hope the Summit maintainer will see the writing on the wall eventually…

Oh Tom’s Hardware, you couldn’t resist the lure of AI for writing your headlines, could you? I can’t imagine it’s your human authors who mixed up H264 and H265 in the same sentence!

Given the prices, I’ve been amazed for at least the last 2 years at the number of folks who are still buying new laptops and desktops.

I really, REALLY hope that this becomes such a massive failure for Discord that it turns into a cautionary tale for all such corporate KYC scams .

This is so relatable. I don’t have any advice for you, but I know that for me it has taken a few years to figure out how to cope with this better.

Not that it’s “Mission Accomplished”, but I do feel much better adjusted now. I don’t get as angry as I used to when I am not being heard/understood, and I also don’t try too hard to make others understand me. I just do my best to communicate my thoughts and feelings (whatever that may look like in the circumstances), and leave the rest up to the other person to figure out for themselves.

I’m super proud of myself for having been able to survive in the interim as I gathered whatever skills were needed to get to this level of acceptance. I sincerely hope that you can, too ❤️‍🩹

Amazing news, thank you Shadow 💜

Now I ain’t a Luddite, but it’s true that evolution has made our bodies expect a very particular type of food. And that food that our bodies have co-evolved around for a few dozen generations is definitely NOT something that can be grown in a lab.

Nah, it couldn’t be.

Google would never do anything just to stifle competition. /s

Ew.

Faaaaark, I hate how much this speaks to me

I think you can only simplify things so much without making the entire thing pointless. As others have already said, install GrapheneOS yourself — it’s almost as easy as making an online purchase. And remember the phone is inherently a tracking device no matter what — especially if the cellular/radio stack is active.

I don’t think there’s any more shortcuts that can be taken if security and protection from surveillance are actually important.

Agreed!

My struggle is to not get bitter/angry at these situations. I have to keep reminding myself that there are about a billion other ways in which I am ignorant of things that are equally important. And that just a few years ago, I too, was completely on the big tech bandwagon (but only reluctantly so).

Your pain is so very relatable, pal 😢

Very insightful! Thank you for this comment @msage@programming.dev

CCI has always been a lethargic and toothless body.

Given the foreign policy implications of this move in the Trump era, and the potential for economic fallout domestically, I am speculating that Apple will be allowed to prevail in this matter in the end.

I support the proposal to defederate.

Thank you admins for your efforts, and also for soliciting this feedback before taking the proposed action!

Both are free (gratis) and open-source, so I think it should be okay for me to comment about them here.
