Yeah I mean i’d maybe, just maybe consider allowing Threads to exist on the fediverse if not for the mountains of evidence and arguements put forth against it.

Meanwhile the arguments for federation are literally ‘you can message people across the fediverse’. That’s it.

I will become a modern day frindle.

Linuxwave - https://github.com/orhun/linuxwave - You can generate music from your OS.

Redux. I’ve always just used it as a fancier ‘re-do’. Still going to keep using it as such. I like the word too much.

Well they also effectively control development of gnome. Not the exact same way Ubuntu did unity but still comparable.

Same. The highlight of this game for me was the 5 minute conversation I had with a co-worker about it. Good times.

Same admin.

It’s because Ubuntu is a company-backed distro consistently wants to go their own way. Not just snap but they’ve done it before with Unity and Mir (and probably others idk).

Course Fedora does literally the same thing and doesn’t get any hate for it so idk. It’s just a meme.

Personally I don’t like Ubuntu because they didnt go far enough into their own ways but thats just me.

You’ll be fine. Just dont visit shady websites and do fall victim to phishing. The other comments in the thread are good advice too.

Also give this a read since you’re using Python. It could happen to you: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/08/10-malicious-python-packages-exposed-in-latest-repository-attack/

Theres a reason nobody uses it anymore. Google extended the crap out of it, effectively took over the protocol and then retired it. It bears the same echoes of what’s happening here.

I’d be closer to agreeing with you if XMPP didn’t completely invalidate your point. They did it there and they’ll do it here.

Is threads still even active? The few users I knew on it don’t use it anymore.

That gopher is literally the reason I have been considering learning go. Same with plan 9.

Except there isn’t anyone like that. Oh wait, there is. 3rd party. But then we’ll just be going in a circle again.

Oh. Well even if it was electron damn thing is so bloated it should be able to render the page

Doesn’t even make sence because the app is just chromium. Theres no way it cant render the manage page.

I can’t continue with this line of reasoning. You are the one whos equating voting third party with not voting and apathy. Nothing will change in the States. Never ever.

Yeah, I mean, even with what the dems/media did against him he did still lose. And he did do stupid stuff on the campaign, irelevant of whoever funded him. He had avenues to continue on and cause damage, such as accepting the green party nomination with Jill Stein (yes I know about the ‘possible’ russian connection there) but alas he just backed down.

I guess I’ll look into the russian disinfo with Bernie then. Far as I was previously aware there was just some screwy things with the Bernie bros but that was it. Don’t know much about his 2020 campaign but I didn’t really take that seriously anyways.

So what? The Russians support anything to sow discord. Just like Democrats supporting extremist Republican candidates to cause mayhem. It’s literally just a facet of American politics and vice versa (American government supporting radical candidates elsewhere). Bernie’s campaign was one of the most progressive the democrats had seen in forever. Even far more progressive than anyone in the squad.

Course these days the guy’s a joke but I don’t feel like going into his ‘fall from grace’.

Sure. Keep up the defeatism. It’s what those in power want. This is probably the only American thing I will never understand.
