The entire premise of this post is that people are supposedly bricking their systems, and atomic distros fix this.
My argument is that nobody is bricking their system. I will repeat it, because that’s the assumption made by op to argue in favor of atomic distros.
You are free to disagree, but at this point you are just arguing to argue.
I’m quoting the OP. His argument is that atomic distros are the future because people are out there bricking their systems.
updates that either work 100% or roll back automatically, no more “oops I bricked my system” moments
I love flatpak lol. something like debian + flatpak is win-win imo
I’m curious what you’re doing to your system that bricks it so often that would be considered a risk for a normal every-day normie user?
oops I bricked my system
I honestly can’t think of a single time I’ve done this in the 20 years I’ve been using linux.
what’s keeping YOU from switching to an atomic distro
I dunno, it just seems like the latest fad. Debian/Arch work just fine.
The USA has one party: the capitalist party. They do not represent you, they represent corporate interests. Your vote doesn’t even really matter because of the electoral college, and other racist relics such as the Senate, giving ridiculous power to to just a handful of “swing voters”.
Voting once every 4 years for either the capitalist war monger or the other capitalist war monger, while they both ban 3rd party candidates from the ballot, does not make the USA “democratic”.
Edit: also who cares if it’s one party? In each of these cases the party has brought the entire population out of abject poverty (usually the result of capitalism exploiting them), increased education surpassing the USA, brought healthcare to all, have higher home ownership rates than the USA, etc.
Objective quality of life measurements all surpass the USA.
No, it gets destroyed by a CIA-funded coup every time. (Read Jakarta Method)
But look at Vietnam, Laos, Cuba, Kerala, China, Burkino Faso for modern attempts at Socialism/Communism
Where do you fit in? Do you own capital? Are you a business owner or a factory owner? If not then you are a tool for capitalists to exploit as they wish
Taxing them will not fix the system that produces them.
Nothing really …
Hackers News I guess, but that’s pretty niche.
Edit: by reddit alternative I assume you mean a threaded long-form platform
Usually, my attempts to use it are either thwarted by issues installing, issues booting, or general problems while using it… leading to “catastrophic failure” that I can’t fix without digging into hours of research and terminal commands.
This was my experience as well … 20 years ago. I’ve not had many of these issues over the past few years using any distro. I used Debian for a couple years and now I’m on Arch. Really, it just works for me…
TBH now that I think about it, I ran in to more issues with Ubuntu than just simply using Debian.
I don’t really believe in ethical consumption, but Penzys spices are awesome! They’re such troll too, I love it!
I’ve had accounts shadow banned due to VPN. I’ve had more accounts banned from subs due to annoying mods. I’m still on reddit, but I really do prefer the non-corporate/non-VC-backed social media
Liberals will claim that they are furious at what’s going on and then proceed to vote for another capitalist who perpetuates what’s going on, all while refusing to listen to Socialists. 🤷♀️
Leftists, of course. Liberals will continue to be in denial for the foreseeable future. Conservatives just dgaf.
wdym? Every single week there’s protests. Are you part of an org? If you’re part of an org maybe you’ll hear about them more?
regardless of all other factors
Yea that’s not what DEI is. Look up affinity bias and why we need things like DEI.
Wait until you learn about tradfi

EDIT: to answer slightly more seriously, crypto is just a tool. The great thing about crypto is that anybody can use it. The bad thing about crypto is that anybody can use it. Yes, there’s lots of dogshit out there (by lots I mean like 95% or more). But the big projects, BTC, ETH, defi stuff like AAVE, Compound, etc are very useful tools. I don’t think people realize how exploitative the banking and finance industry really are, and crypto bypasses most of that.
