TL;DR: The lead dev is German and had no idea at the time that toot was American slang for farting, he thought it was just an elephant/mastodon noise.

Anything that isn’t supported can usually be found either by flatpak or in the Arch User Repository.

The hardest part is that the solution is often: Use subpar *buntu based distro for a month or 2 then get good enough to use Arch or something based off of it.

I’m really hoping that valve’s public release of Arch based Steam OS is good enough that I can just recommend that to people.

No, bird 2 then screams at bird 1 for using Ubuntu and recommends <FLAVOR OF THE MONTH HERE> distro that will totally work and is totally easy to use despite the lack of documentation. It’s then bird 1’s fault if they can’t get their niche hipster distro to work.

It’s about time that people understood that “Everything on the internet lasts forever” is a falsehood formed from a Web 2.0 mindset. Now those big Web 2.0 sites everyone thought would dominate the internet forever are dying, and the only thing saving what was on those websites (the internet archive) is being constantly sued by greedy publishers.

Fun fact, did you know that google deliberately makes their products run worse on browsers like Firefox so users will think the browsers are slow? Please support Firefox, it’s the only real browser not based on Googles technology (like Brave is), and it’s actively fighting Google’s monopoly on web browsing.

But what if the thread is old and someone came across it from google looking for information?

Would be wonderful if the FCC did their fucking job for once and banned data caps. Companies like Mediacom abuse the fuck out of them

One thing i love about lemmy and kbin is that up votes and down votes are separate and visible. The only other semi successful reddit clone that did this was voat, and I’m glad that shithole site is dead. Rest in racist peices.

Why use this over .7z? I’m legit curious.

This is usually the source of people’s annoyance with me. I also struggle to comprehend what people say half the time.

Who would believe a story like this?
