I’m considering getting a laptop for Linux and want to know a few things before I do. Some important info before I start: I don’t plan on using the laptop for anything too intense, mainly writing, digital art, streaming, browsing, and maybe very mild video editing (cropping at least and shortening at most). I would also...
If you’re thinking of getting one, i personally would recommend getting one from www.tuxedocomputers.com. Extremely good quality and a really clean distro with Tuxedo OS 2 although you are able to install on it whatever you want.
Imagine if there were Tor-enabled Lemmy instances, allowing users to share direct media links without any restrictions. The thought alone is enough to make me salivate. Do you think there will be any instances like these if the developers make it possible?
After years of using reddit, i finally deleted everything including my account there. Personally, i am not affected by the api prices, BUT, i couldn't live with me supporting people, who see their userbase, moderators and creators as nothing but noise. The point i'm making? Greetings Lemmy. I joined a few days ago and i'm here...
Ah i welcome you just the same my guy. What can is say, let's keep pumping that sweet content here and enjoy our time. I've been sorting things out as of late so this is just the next step to getting to what the internet once was imo. I'm happy to see this website grow too and yea, about that karma, i never really gave much of a shit about it tbh, so works for me. Hope you'll have a pleasant night/day
I mean, i generally don't see a problem with rules and moderator to make sure they won't be broken, but reddit sure was wild at times. I think, if you're just being yourself and use the social platform for something like, idk, being social, it won't come ti a ban.
tl:dr I agree with you on that point and i see the way lemmy handles this, as a good thing, as freedom of speech should be a given in social platforms
I am aware of that as well as i am also aware of the fact that one does not have to stay anywhere. I was not trying to say anything except for that i don't like seeing me getting fucked over or others getting fucked over, especially when the people are the ones, working for it.
in conclusion, i know that i have to pick a poison, so i prefer to pick the one i get to know the ingredients in it
I mean, i saw something like that coming, but it still renders me even more spiteful towards reddit. I hope their snapshots get nuked or something like that. Thanks for the input my guy
Looks like we too are in the same boat here. I've read about them restoring deleted content and demodding moderators in order to open up the subreddits themselfs. Let'em burn.
It is about time we take back OUR internet, as it once was OURS. I could not agree me on that part right there. Good having you put some thought into it and good having you here, so welcome to lemmy and have a pleasant stay. The future is Decentralized. The future is Open Source. The future is Ours.
Things are going quite smoothly here (except for picture upload but i heard that it already gets worked on) and the content is indeed growing every day. Maybe the perfect opportunity to correct some things or have a better start. I'd take it as such and i'm glad to hear that the convertion over to lemmy is helping you out. Social Media sure does a good job on sucking you in until way too much time is gone, but with less busy shit going on on the screen and the platform relying on real social interaction (you know exactly what i mean by that kek), one might be less forgetting of touching some grass. Either way, glad to have you here and i hope it goes better for you as time continues. We live in times that are way too fast paced, to the point where we forget to just exist from time to time. I wish you luck with maintaining that part of life that you regained through this and a pleasant stay.
Ayy that's the spirit. It is kinda weird with those instanced links, where you click on it and suddenly you're not logged in, but then you look at the url and realize, that you are but not on that instance, but other than that, it is way smoother than i expected. Glad to have you here and feel free to let me know if you encounter anything spicy :'D
You take it at your own pace. I mean, technically you are stepping out of your comfort zone by checking something new (which is a good thing imo) and i'm sure you'll getting used to the ui sooner rather than later. It's rally minimalistic and not bloated with hundreds of buttons. I welcome you as well on lemmy.
PS: If it helps you somehow, remember that there was a time where reddit was not a thing until someone made it and it was.
Plan on getting a Linux laptop: any suggestions?
