Not knowing how anything works, being scared by errors that you don’t know how to get around or deal with, not knowing alternatives for your former favourite apps to do things quickly, wondering if you get the peripherals you currently own to run?

naah thanks mate, hard pass.

I don’t get you US americans with your political stuff, your terminology seems to be all over the place. Today democrats are libertarian, next day it’s the republicans. This is literally authoritarianism at play by definition, their liberties are taken away. And where does the evil left come from, that state seems to be run by Republicans, i.e. extreme rightwing.

I mean, ever since your election the whole world knows your politics is broken beyond repair, but this is still bloody confusing to read.

Only five missing dependencies, ten configuration mistakes and three compiler errors to go.

It’s a US “non-profit”. One that demands 19$ per article which they merely provide as aggregator, they don’t own shit.

Utterly absurd.

A third one is being worked on silently (Linux Mobile), however that will most likely only be a niche choice for those who already ain’t being caught and locked into Silicon Valleys “products”. Due to its very nature there is no VC money involved and therefore no big fanfare planed, even when finished.

It’s still very much a dev platform right now, even though the Pinephone is freely purchasable.

And with “AI” this will only get worse. How much disk space will “Recall” snatch for their keylogger again, about 32gb?

Wow. So every theatre show of classics like Romeo & Juliet is a degraded experience. I’m not sure Nintendo bosses understand what “art” is.

I heard very desperate people also use Linux From Scratch. Might help. Might induce neurosis.

This is part of Googles strategy. Ever since the Chromium engine took off enough and everyone else fell behind they began introducing more and more changes that merely benefits them, with less public debate or proper communication (or even adherence to common standards). Last thing I remember, aside of manifest v3, was them killing off JPEG XL as it was a competitor to webp and webm (which they control). JPEG XL was actively worked on and would’ve probably turned out better before they killed it without any previous notice.

Given Googles dominant market position, their influence and everyone wanting to cut corners wherever possible sometimes Firefox support is just ignored.

tl;dr It’s not Firefox’ fault. It’s Google’s sabotage.

I’d like to see memes that are embracing the left but with a clear cut against authoritarianism. This one is too ambiguous.
