I dislike this sentiment. Just because something is FOSS or open source, doesn’t mean it’s not harvesting your data or doing something nefarious.

Not just users, users who post.
Old.reddit.com and if you have an account, go into settings and opt out of the redesign.
Anyone have a non-paywalled link?
I rarely see that,. But what I see all the time is Linux lovers being toxic fanboys trying to shove their “passion” down everyone’s throat. Also, 99% of them being wrong about what it can “offer”.
Its a pure superiority complex fanbase.
Or keep all communities public and stop using walled garden communities full stop. Along with keeping forum threads alive for easier documentation and searchability.
Because accidents happen?
Why do we need any form of safety precaution?
I don’t intend to crash my car. I still wear a seat belt.
I don’t intent to burn my house down. I still have a fire extinguisher.
I don’t intent to chainsaw my leg off. I still wear safety trousers.
I don’t intent my furniture to fall on me. I still secure it to the wall.
Gotta be the dumbest take I’ve read on Lemmy so far.
So, what you’re saying is… Is house rates went up on his mortgage right?
And because of that he became poor?
So you’re saying your right with the assumption that if he rented his rent wouldn’t also double??
Lemmy users don’t respond well to reasonable criticism or facts.
Only toxic and stupid comments allowed.
I don’t know much about Friendica, does it have a website/pwa that I can try?
Or does it need a party to create a site like Lemmy?
Okay? And physical stores don’t? This isn’t news and doesn’t address your claim whatsoever? It doesn’t compare spotify vs indi labels.
Discoverability, publishing, advertising, gigs etc.
Wohh there, that’s a lot of claims with 0 proof.
Can yo source any of that?
You’re completely right. People suck steams dick are ridiculously hypocritical and blond.
I was mocked for defending Epic trying to compete withs steam. They’re doing great work for Devs and gamers. But sadly, blind gamers (who claim they hate monopolys) aren’t self aware enough to see the trees through the forest.
I don’t think you understand mortgages very well.
You know you can remortgage or sell your house before it’s paid off, right?
If I pay in £500 a month. Likely, 20-80 of that goes to interest. I’m gaining £480 in equity each month.
Which I can gain access it at near any point with very little penalty.
You’re focusing very blindly on your single point of “the deposit”. Which is the hurdle everyone should focus on however possible.
Unfortunately, the majority of us are fucking stupid. We voted for Brexit…
The other possibility is that the younger voters are even more stupid by not voting.
Either way, politically stupid or stupid lazy.
Linux one, I wasn’t aware of but that does suck.
Unfortunately, due to the behaviours of the audience they are trying to gain that is likely the best and cost effective way to gain new users. But I do totally agree their launcher sucks ass and needs work.
Care to elaborate why you’re calling them Evil Games?
They are better for developers via unreal engine.
They are better for both developers and publishers via the markets lowest cut of earnings via their store front.
They pay well to try break steams monopoly. If anything, steam are the bad guys via their extortionate cut. (30%)
They are better for indie Devs on Fortnight compared to Roblox.
They do everything better than most… so place your anger correctly. I’m sick of people hating on epic while they’re the only company trying to beat the monopolys…
Let me frame this another way.
Google is monopolistic and kills any other competitor from competing. Thus preventing consumer choice.
Google is already one of the biggest companies in the world. I’ve never given them a penny in my 2 decades of service use. Yet the line goes up.
They exist because of us the consumer.
They also don’t pay, let alone treat, their creators fairly. Although they are 99% the reason they exist.
Yet Google wants more because line must go up.
There are other services I pay for such as nebula, float plane, patron specifics. But not all creators can sustain that. And I doubt it I pay for YouTube that will change. Because spoiler alert. YouTube don’t pay well. It’s sponsors and merch that keep creators alive.
Wtf is this thinking.
Open Ai wouldn’t use something or someone without consent? There’s a plethora of lawsuits and evidence that they did that with pretty much every medium out there.
