I’ve taken up saying “temporarily free/libre” and “permanently free/libre” instead of the permissive/copyleft, since imo “permissive” has a suggestive positive connotation. Especially to ppl who do not know much about the free software movement

there is an emacs command for that
I feel this, Gnome and it’s opinionated workflow just “gets out of the way” in my experience
The “trust us, we totally didn’t just remove the headphone jack to profit off of the TWS hypetrain” - “eco friendly” company? No thanks
idk about any ranking sites, but from what I understand, YaCy gets better the more ppl participate in it
other ppl already mentioned Searxng which is also great
Smth like yaCy?
The USA has a two faced one party system. Two sides of the same coin or “good cop/bad cop” if you will.
Both parties serve the rich, support imperialism and so on. In terms of economics they have the exact same function of serving the 10% over the 90%.
In terms of domestic affairs the good/bad cop dynamic really kicks in. The reps are ultraconservative, while the dems try to mud the waters with their slight progressiveness, in the end only coopting those things as not to endanger capitalism.
The best you will get from the dems is a
“I’ll try to not make things worse - for now. Vote for me or my buddy elephant over there will beat you up”.
(the not making things worse refers to their social policy, not their economic ones. Those will still get progressively worse for the working majority, even if it might be a bit more indirect. All the dems really are is a silken glove over the iron fist of capital).
And tbh, for everyone outside of the US it doesn’t make a difference whether the bombs the policeman of the world drops wherever they please & the bags of money they send to genociders/reactionaries/fascists/terrorists have prideflag & BLM stickers on them, or not…
That’s how I was made aware of “The History of Rome”. I listened to the last chapters of “Revolutions” and decided to start from the beginning before listening to the rest.
My current “roadmap” of sorts is to finish “The History of Rome”, then "The History of Byzantium* (not made by Duncan) and listen to the rest of “Revolutions” afterwards
I have exclusuvely been listening to “The History of Rome” by Mike Duncan
still not done with it lol
I plan on switching to Slowroll once it’s matured, but I think I’ll stay with Gnome :p
This is very similar to my experience tho I have skipped most of my ricing/customization phase with Gnome bc I just didn’t feel the need to do much about it bar a few extensions
I’m glad Fedora comes with the most usable no-bs/out-of-the-way (in my subjective experience) DE by default. Yes I do run it with Tweaks and a few extensions, but otherwise I have no need for extensive customization for customization’s sake (which seems so many ppls problem with GNOME, smth that I couldn’t find more irrelevant), since everything about its UI/UX is so intuitive. I understand if people don’t like its opinionated workflow, but it’s just right for me personally…
I don’t get the proposal either way bc Fedora has always been the spearhead of vanilla GNOME and there is an official KDE spin iirc
no you didn’t, you can install flatpak using the terminal but iirc flatpak are mostly made with GUI applications in mind, while snaps support installing command line utils quite well
…no?
The backend is proprietary and you or other orgs cannot run their own server. It’s harcoded to use Canonical’s servers for obtaining snaps and their metadata…
seething Ubuntu fans are funny af lol.
Your leash being longer than average doesn’t remedy the fact that you’re still tied to a pole…
snaps are a proprietary vendor-locked format, the only redeeming quality is being able to run them in cli (once Flatpak get that too, there is no valid reason for snaps to exist).
I just find it midly infuriating (if that even is a thing, meaning I hate it but it’s not that significant for me to distro hop on my work laptop) to have two “universal” package formats on my system with Canonical shoving the objectively worse one (from a free/libre pov) down my throat…
the average brain on Windows…
“wdym a different OS doesn’t behave exactly like Winsows? That just means it’s bad!”
“It’s Linux’ fault that my proprietary software/configurator for overpriced hardware gimmicks isn’t working and definitely not just the vendor not giving enough of a shit to provide support (or at least help with community drivers) on other platforms as well!!1!”

should be good in filtering out some of the people I wouldn’t want to interact with anyway
we making it into techo-feudalism with that pattern 🗣️🗣️🗣️
It will stop being free the second a corporation gets it’s hands on it, makes improvements and put’s those under a proprietary license
