Because Bluesky is centralised. You went from one serial killer’s house to another. You don’t know which serial killer owns your new house, but you’re hoping they’ll be nicer than the previous one. But at least their house is nearly as nice as the old serial killer’s house.

Let me guess, they’re moving to Bluesky?

I don’t even know what “it” is. A recommendation algorithm? But peertube already has a “similar” video section to the right of all videos. Does this replace that? Techies really have a problem with presenting stuff to laymen.

“Linux Mint hides the terminal”

Do you know what you’re talking about or are you just assuming stuff? Tell me, what is a “European Citizens’ Initiative”?

Do you even know what the difference between a “European Citizens’ Initiative” and petition is?

No worries, as a European, English isn’t my first language either :P

And as a response: if my job depended on being on the “right side of things” I wouldn’t make such controversial statements. Not only is it dumb in the moment, but also for the future. People are very polarised and even if she had changed her mind by now, there’d still be outrage “omg, look at what she said years ago! I don’t trust that she changed!”. Of course she supposedly doubled down, which is even dumber IMO, but you get the point.

I use this anonymous account because what the opinions I express here will probably evolve and I don’t want any future employer putting me into a box due to a comment made in jest, rage, or whatever. Revealing your identity online for anything other than business is just asking for trouble.

Would you if it’s something you care about

Did you forget a word?

I’m having trouble with the rest of your post too. Autocorrect must’ve struck or something.

I don’t understand why people don’t keep such comments to their anonymous, unofficial accounts. You can hold such views in private and still treat people with respect, but saying these things officially changes everything. The co-organiser is in a space where she should know better. She then even doubled down

When asked whether she still held her more problematic views in a follow-up comment, Young responded ambiguously with “I fully stand by the statement you are commenting on.”

In for a penny, in for a pound, eh?

Hmmm… I thought it would be rude, but considering the consensus here, people speaking other languages should just respond using their languages to English comments and posts. There are way more non-English speaking people on the planet than English speakers. It would make the fediverse truly international if people did what you did!

Thanks for possibly starting a movement :)

Can’t have competition now, can we? That would lead to innovation. (and the gold-plated dinner table set missing on the new yacht)

First handhelds, then PCs, then laptops, then phones. Maybe, maybe, maybe we’ll finally see another OS take a big bite out of the OS market. Fuck Macs. They are a shit choice (unless you like being locked in).

Most gamers: sweet, let me hand them my money!

I mean, have you played games recently?

What’s your mom?

I enjoy watching tournaments to see how much of skill difference there is between me, the one day a week gamer, and the pros who play every single day for 8-12 hours. It shows you what is possible and what the limit is.

Once I bought a game because I saw a pro playing it and thought it looked like fun. Boy, was I wrong. The gaming community is not just a shit-hole, it’s a toxic, radioactive bog of brain dead troglodytes caked in layers of fecal matter, impervious to reason or friendliness. Not only that, many multiplayer games have either no tutorial and you’re dropped into a war zone when you keep dying, all the while being screamed at by some dude with a supermarket mic that’s either in his asshole, mouth or 3 meters away on his console, with no possibility of reviewing what you did or a some kind of training chamber / level with bots to get better in peace and quiet.

Turns you PC into spacewarmer for just 70 bucks!

Decentralisation has always been the answer!

Russia declares US missile base in Poland a target

uh… that would get all of NATO involved, wouldn’t it?
