Ah yes…biden

I lot of people think they rely on Windows programs when they would be perfectly fine using a Linux alternative.

Always funny to me that Windows seems to be this OS that you can’t escape from cause everything requires Windows to run. But nobody brings up that issue when you talk about MacOS and having to find alternative apps when switching there

Usually when things I own or use break it’s because I’m an idiot lol.

Interesting. I’ve been running Arch/KDE for years and never saw that bug. I use Arch on almost everything.

Steam Deck comes with kinda-Arch, I use Arch for work now, I use it on my gaming PC. The only thing that doesn’t run it is my home server because it sits in a corner and doesn’t need bleeding edge updates or the AUR.

I mean let’s be honest…we all knew it was a cesspool lol

If it’s on Reddit and visible via Google search, it’s public information. Posts online generally do not have any sort of ownership or protections legally.

I could copy your post and repost it somewhere else, I could even claim it as my own post and idea, with zero legal ramifications. Though taking credit for it would make me a dick. I’d just credit the original user. Even if it’s just “crosspost from Reddit user /u/insertUsername”

Missed opportunity to name it “Loogle”

Arch has only broken for me because I’m an idiot.

Word, I guess. I haven’t thought about Facebook for about a decade or more. Glad to see they are still crashing and burning. Although…normally you’d burn up an evaporate by now. Can we get the MySpace treatment for Facebook already?

Did you put a lot of thought into that one?

Seriously, it’s ridiculous. Why is nobody holding Google accountable for the Holocaust?

I use Thunder. Actively being developed, tons of new features coming every few days. I get an update almost every day. Works great, looks great.

I have yet to go through it all myself but from what I’ve seen of the Lemmy code it seems pretty straight forward. I doubt anything is being tracked other than what is required. Obviously your IP has to be taken down so they can route traffic to you. Username and all info you put on your profile or post. List of liked/disliked posts, subscribed or blocked communities and people, perhaps metadata of any photos or videos you upload, the package name for whatever mobile app you use, etc.

All the code is available on GitHub for you to check out if you’d like, 80% of it is written in Rust. But I am looking through it myself to see what kind of privacy I can expect from Lemmy. It’s already ahead of Reddit though, where I couldn’t view the source code and just had to trust what the company said.
