The diversification that world markets are going through right now is wonderful tbh. Even at such a small level, we’re getting so much great stuff at the grocery store to replace all the American brands my country has all but rejected now. Love seeing it at the enterprise level too, we might see a lot of other countries start having growing tech industries in their regions now.

I’ve converted a ton of my older family to Linux, it does everything they need as far as web browsing and some basic office applications, and it offers a polished enough UI these days that most barely tell it apart from windows, some even prefer the UI more. Even 2/3 of our home systems have gone full Linux now too (no more dual booting) and handle all my own gaming, audio and programming needs. I really hope this message keeps getting out there and we can cut back on ewaste and forced obselence.

I have so many questions about this too… Commenting to come back later for the answer.

Man, what sort of sweatshop industry is this so I can avoid it?

Maybe a slider so we can adjust how much “masculine energy” shows up in our feeds?

This is the better path forward… That everyone just gets so sick of it that they drop it - I’ve actually seen a lot of that among my own friends over the last week (and we aren’t from America even). But the right wingers will never drop it because it’s their community and echo chamber, and that’s where the further dangers to democracy come into play when they’re all in the sandbox together without parents…

I had just signed up a few nights ago to try it out before subscribing, it’s an easy cancel at this point and is being done momentarily.

I long for rock solid VR support in Linux like the rest of my gaming in Steam. I dual boot windows for the sole purpose of VR experience right now :(

Exactly this. Wasn’t Netflix going to sink after everyone cancelled when password sharing was banned? But everyone I know just ended up buying extra logins…

I got an ad once for a group selling stolen credit card numbers too. I must have reported it at least a dozen times but it was always kept up and the report said it didn’t break any rules. It only got removed after I just skipped Facebook reports and reported to the police.
