#opohjmq @prologic@twtxt.net This one made me think of you.

Okay, weird. It’s now working:

Hmmmmmm

I’m confused. There is a hacker-news feed here, and I can see an interesting post I wanted to comment on:

Twtxt search says it’s there, but I can’t actually see the post. I do follow hacker-news on twtxt, but there’s only like 5 posts from there.

Is this expected or a bug?

I mean, if it is pretty good, why should we care if it is based on Ubuntu? 🤣

Haha, yeah, you’re right.

Yeah I’m using Windows for a bit of gaming. But most stuff on Steam actually works on Linux, via Wine. I think/hope you’re right, we’ll finally have a year of the Linux desktop 😁

Yeah, absoluteky. The closed source reason doesn’t make it trash. Sublime text is in no way trash, but is closed source and proprietary.

It’s the points I listed after, that gets me to the conclusion macOS is trash.

Signing is a great feature. But the gatekeeper shouldn’t be Apple.

8gb is huge. But I guess, like everything, it’s subjective.

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com yeah, I’m really fussy over software and a big supporter of the GPL/GNU/FSF stuff. So pretty much any proprietary software, I’m against 😛 I’m very unreasonable, I know 😛

But I really hate:

• telemetry
  
• signing/gatekeeping software
  
• can’t actually download it in a nice iso
  
• lots of legal conditions, like only allowed on Apple hardware. Can’t just buy the os.
  
• closed source
  
• its huge. Like GBs in size
  

Currently I use popOS on a System76 laptop. It’s pretty good, although I wish it wasn’t based on Ubuntu.

It always amazes me just how bad Microsoft’s “products” are. I actually thought Windows 95 to XP where really good, lightweight (relatively speaking) and flexible.

I got a Windows PC for gaming a while back, which is Windows 10 I think. The entire thing is just a cesspit of surveillance and adverts. But, with the added benefit, of having to pay for a closed source proprietary piece of garbage.

Why anyone would choose to use that over Linux or a Mac is beyond me. Don’t get me wrong, macOS is still trash. But miles better than that Windows disaster.

I wish the web was like this. I would 100% take this over the spying, tracking, huge file sizes, adverts, popups, chat windows, cookie banners, forced signups, centralised hosting, social sharing.

Gitea is lovely. Its amazing how fast it is.

What feature in this release are you liking the most?

@prologic@twtxt.net what happened to private messaging James? Did it get removed?

Well, in the latest game of “Which of the UK and Australia is worse?”, UK scores some points:

We’re struggling to fund our national health service, but yet our tax money can be spent towards this uneducated and ill-informed anti encryption and privacy campaign.

What an embarrassment for the UK.

@prologic@twtxt.net for me the site loads so fast I can’t notice a single layout shift :P Just give all img a width and height.

Now your website will seem like it was made by a PRO

I’m in tears. I just had to share this one.
