EndeavourOS is more like an opinionated Arch install

Fellow EOS user and this is a hilarious yet accurate description. Still have vanilla arch but EOS on my laptop now since I tend to mess with it often.

Still waiting for LinusXI Pro Max.

14 is the new 6. Ngl, he looks young af.

This honestly makes a lot of sense. 🤔

I think it’s DDG. I forget exactly, but i think I’ve read somewhere DGG has ties to Bing. Idk the specifics.

As for Brave, yeah. I agree. It’s good to be wary. Unfortunately, not a lot of chromium-based alternatives. Linux has ungoogled chromium but security isn’t that great either. It sucks, tbh.

One risk of the fediverse is that data is cached locally from federated servers. That could put server owners in legal jeopardy for hosting illegal content.

This 100%. And not just piracy-related stuff.

Tbh, there have been some decisions by lemmy.world admins that i didn’t really support, but this one is understandable imo.

I wonder if the lemmy devs are aware of this and what steps can be taken to protect the instance owners from stuff in other instances that can get them in trouble.

Yup same. I was with Qobuz until it started having issues (kept buffering even if there’s no problem with my connection). Apple music is buggy on Win 10 and sounded worse than Qobuz so i skipped it. I’m now on Tidal (fuck MQA still) but still looking for goodbetter music streaming services. Netflix can rot.

I was kinda curious why Raddle wasn’t your first go-to. This explains it.

Thank you! I’ll be back if I run into some trouble. :D

This. There’s archinstall now, too. A bit buggy in my experience so I prefer the old fashioned way.

I’ve never tried the extension pack, but I do have the guest additions. How do you install it?

I would rather implement a way to export/import account data.

This is perfectly reasonable. I think a lot of users will be happy with this. Also, I agree with the view that lemmy isn’t focused on individual users. We have X, Mastodon, etc. for that. Thanks for the response!

I see Empress is still subtle and classy as always.

First of all, I’d like to say thank you and that I appreciate your work. Lemmy is great and I’ve found a new home (at least for the foreseeable future). I first joined lemmy.ml once I learned about lemmy, and I have to say I had a good experience there. You guys even responded directly to my noob questions, and I honestly felt welcome which helped me decide to stay.

My questions are about account migration. As you may have already seen, I’m not with lemmy.ml anymore. The reason is I saw you guys stickied a post encouraging users to use different instances (since the server was having trouble with the influx of redditors at that time). I figured I’d help by first moving to a smaller instance. I have no regrets, although switching was a bit tricky since I had to start from scratch.

What are your thoughts on account migration? Is it in the works or is it something that’s a little far into the future? No pressure since I know you guys are busy with other stuff.

15:00 CEST. That’s the time they’ll start answering questions, i think. It’s already Monday where I am lol.

You’re absolutely right, now that I think about it. My bad. But yeah, it makes more sense to upstream and make the features toggle-able.

Not all instance owners may want all those features implemented. Not the same but kind of like how Beehaw doesn’t allow downvotes while other lemmy instances do.

Dude was forced to buy Twitter because he couldn’t stop his big mouth. Seems he hasn’t learned. Lmao.

You don’t agree with the site, so you stop using it. If enough people do that, they lose money.

Maybe someone should tell them that’s never gonna happen, then? Because a lot of them seem to think the amount of protestors are more than enough to influence reddit traffic. I’m all for boycotting reddit (i was probably here earlier than most rexxitors - this is my 4th account due to looking for a good home instance), but stopping people from protesting is just wrong. Protesting doesn’t mean just boycotting.

let Lemmy/kbin grow naturally. As long as it maintains consistent positive growth, it will be a beautiful thing in some years.

As far as the Fediverse is concerned, I agree completely.

There’s no need to spam reddit.

There may be no need, but there certainly is a reason in some people’s minds.

Permission to use this in the future for similar comments. With credit, of course. You explained it better than i ever could.
