When you see “Account created: 1997”.

“These are the sacred scrolls of the ancient ones.”

I have boots older than some people that are posting on Lemmy today…

Now that societal failsafe is gone. Now people just aren’t challenged for holding the wrong opinion.

I agree with everything you said except for this. Opinions are never wrong since they’re subjective, they’re just fucking stupid.

The only Chromium-based browser worth a damn is Vivaldi.

It’s privacy-focused and made by the same people who originally made Opera before it got sold off and turned into malware.

Because Firefox honestly used to be shit, especially in the early Phoenix/Firebird days, but now it isn’t anymore, and they just haven’t bothered to check it out again. The “killing all the existing extensions” thing really didn’t help matters either.

Lmfao. Bro edge is chromium my guy. You just switched from one skin to another is all. It’s all the same under the hood🤣

They are definitely not all the same, and Vivaldi is a fantastic example of that. Just because it’s Chromium-based doesn’t mean it’s chock full of bullshit and a Chrome reskin, it just means that it most likely is. Vivaldi definitely isn’t.

Changing request headers is a trivial thing.

Hearing a song that you’ve downloaded playing on the radio, surprised it didn’t skip in that one spot

To this day my brain still jams in neutral when I don’t hear a skip at the end of Guerilla Radio the last time Zach says “now”

I mean that is the problem of too many people being on that one instance.

From what I understand, capacity isn’t the issue, it’s that they’re being repeatedly DDoS’ed

He wasn’t homeless.

He had a wine barrel.

You’re free to use sync for Lemmy in much the same way you can run a Spotify client in Linux. One does not destroy the other.

I don’t understand these mini-Stallmans and their identical attitudes like this. One Stallman is enough, please develop a personality and realize that things do come in shades of grey.

I contribute to FOSS projects & I love Linux and have been using it professionally for a couple of decades, but I’m never going to stand up an LDAP server on it when Active Directory exists, the same way I’m never going to use Windows as a Docker host or a network load balancer.

Use the best tool for the job, don’t be a zealot.

but also larger distros being used regularly in enterprise/web hosting.

Red Hat is the 800lb gorilla in the room in that aspect. They put out a rock-solid product and their support is probably the best I’ve ever used regardless of any other factor.

They also pretty much own the Government/Gov Contractor Linux space because of the support and how simple it is to apply STIGs.
