Communities as in what exactly?
The Community Hubs for specific games or various groups that people made?
In either case, it’s probably better to intentionally stay out of there, since you know that you generally dislike the content there.
Or, you could try to find a user group that has rules and moderates content in a way that you agree with.
But overall, Steam is platform for video games, which are generally considered to be fun, so it is to be expected that other variations of “fun” will be present there as well.
Schools should be the first place where proprietary software should be replaced with FOSS.
Microsoft understands the “get them while they are young” method very well, understands that it is a very significant element of the cycle that keeps them in power, and therefore puts a lot of effort into making sure that this does not change.
So getting children to learn on FOSS and the concepts around it would result in very significant changes, especially in long-term.
Is there any project or organisation that is already trying to achieve that?
If yes, then it would be good to spread the word about them around the internet.
Wait, I was told that Core Decay development was halted, that the game was cancelled.
there is a #dead_game_news channel in AF Discord
and there is !accursed_farms, but there is not much going on in there.
doesn’t Steam Hardware Survey report way higher percentage of Linux users?
(Statista, Blackdown)
wouldn’t Valve’s numbers be more reliable?
Sup dawg, heard you like remaked
Funny how people tend to quote Linus Torvalds on technical issues in order to prove a point. I hear the guy barely made it through college.
Actually, I lied about even that. I was thrown out of fourth grade because I couldn’t write my own name, and it’s been all downhill from there. I had to lie about getting into college just so that I’d have better chances of making a career here at McDonalds - if you have a college degree (or you lied about having one), they don’t make you scrape the burger pans.
heh, he had good sense of humour already back in 1999
there is a bridge, but some parts of the fediverse got very mad about it

I just have a HedgeDoc presentation and a subdomain on some public FreeDNS domain:

Yes, and there are probably other FOSS applications for that as well.
But it is a bit sad to see that Google considers the “phone” part of the “smartphone” be so obscure functionality that they left it’s development to community.
Maybe I should stop living in the past and just accept that the glowing rectangle that we carry around is actually a tiktok machine that can occasionally do some other stuff as well.
this is what open source dialer app died for?
Other comments already pointed to some very good software solutions.
But I would argue that absolutely the biggest barrier to entry for the masses is hardware.
Restoring an old PC or making some cable spaghetti with some SBC is currently too advanced for average person.
Self-hosting for the masses would require some new form of home servers.
Something modular, where adding new components would be as easy as playing with Lego bricks.
Does Organic Maps support it?
Problem is that the whole concept of advertising is “telling other people what to do”.
RSS is freedom
