I would say that security and privacy are also very important. That’s something you can’t get with Windows.
Congratulations! Next you might want to learn about the Free Software movement: https://youtu.be/Ag1AKIl_2GM
So, yeah, sell me on Linux, please.
Windows has spyware, so that should be enough reason to not use it for someone like you. You will have to spend some time to learn GNU/Linux, but for most office tasks it shouldn’t be difficult, especially if you are good with computers. Most popular distros already come with a PDF viewer and Libre Office, so it should be able to do almost everything you want out of the box. VLC player can play all common video types and is easy to install. Libre Office might have issues with some Word documents though, so you might need to look into that. A web browser (usually Firefox) and probably some email client will be preinstalled as well.
You might need to check if your printer and scanner will be supported out of the box or if extra drivers from the manufacturer are needed (then check if they are available on their website). I think printers will probably work fine out of the box, but scanners might require extra drivers (this depends on the model - there are models that don’t).
If you need more motivation, look into the Free Software movement: https://youtu.be/Ag1AKIl_2GM
GNOME also has an app that lets you do encrypted incremental backups very easily.
People wait for him to be resurrected, but nothing happens. He dies for real.
Garbage that’s designed to alter my mood to keep me longer on the platform. Please, give me more of that!
Yeah, for some reason there will always be people who are willing to use software that harms them.
But people using those platforms is not good for our society. Of course if they cared about freedom a little bit of extra difficulty wouldn’t really bother them. But the goal should be to make the switch as easy as possible.
No algorithm designed to keep you addicted or run experiments on you.
Try to convince them to move here. Maybe eventually they will.
Thanks for making this! I usually don’t post Piped or Invidious links, because most people don’t know what they are. But now the bot will do it for me and explain what it is!
Piped is awesome too! Is integration with PeerTube planned? I don’t know how it would work exactly, but it would be nice if people gradually started switching to a decentralized platform. Maybe Piped could help make that easier somehow?
Capitalism existed before AI became popular.
You will just be making newer, even more efficient AIs to replace the old ones.
You mean a dishwasher? :)
The thing I worry about is that people who misunderstand AI will try to block progress and slow down the adoption of useful technology. There is already plenty of misinformation about it in the media. Same with cryptocurrencies.
Thanks for changing it so quickly :). Your app looks very cool, btw. I don’t use iOS, but I will start recommending it to others.
Edit: just noticed that it’s for Android too. But I assume it’s not in the store yet?
Maybe this one is easier to install? https://lemmy.ml/c/memmy
No, you buy a certificate of ownership. That’s what NFT is.
