You know what?

100% of my empathy goes out to anyone involved in open source development, who also has to manage that project's social feeds, subreddits, or any other public-facing platform.

You're on the front lines of endless complaining and borderline hateful criticism, and it never seems to end.

And if you're someone dishing out that kind of behavior? Grow the fuck up, be less entitled, and try to respect the human beings working their asses off to make awesome free software for you.

Official statement from @Mer__edith: the new EU chat controls proposal for mass scanning is the same old surveillance with new branding.

Whether you call it a backdoor, a front door, or “upload moderation” it undermines encryption & creates significant vulnerabilities.

@signalapp @Mer__edith We still have one day to stop this mass surveillance madness, especially if you're from IT, FI, CZ, SE, SV, EST, GR, PT. Act NOW: https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/council-to-greenlight-chat-control-take-action-now/

Ooooh should Pinball Dad stick his toe in the Linux Discourse

I've been on it since 2010, I guess I should maybe?

How about I stick my whole entire foot in, maybe if I poison it with my footstink then it'll die down a bit

Linux is a bit shit sometimes,

There's your headline. I don't care whether you use linux or not; ten years ago that might have mattered, I might be trying to get more people to use it so that adobe or whoever would put more effort into supporting it, but that doesn't really matter anymore, these days everything either Just Works or there's a native equivalent that's better and I've no selfish reason to recommend linux anymore, so if you're happy with windows stick with windows.

If you're not happy with windows, here's the other half of that sentence at the top of this post:

Linux is a bit shit sometimes - but when it's a bit shit, it's a bit shit in the way of a cat who watches the mouse run across the living room floor, not in the way of a cat who suddenly decides to bite you for no reason. It's not actively malicious, it's just a bit shit sometimes, which these days is tbh pretty damn good compared with a lot of stuff.

Like, it's not bad because it's being hollowed out for investors, it's not bad because it's spying on you to make more money, it's not bad because its makers know you've gotta take it anyway, it's not bad because it knows it can get a lot worse before you look elsewhere, it's just... bad. But bad in like a normal way, like a bike with a wonky gear shifter and tyres that keep going soft, not like a bike that shows you adverts.

There's my linux recommendation.

LINUX: It's A Bit Shit Sometimes™

Inspired by this:

A warning sign with a red background at the top labeled "DANGER" in white text. Below this, on the left side, is a black silhouette of a person with a multicolored Microsoft logo, all inside a red circle with a diagonal line crossing through it, indicating "no" or "not allowed." To the right, in bold black text on a white background, it reads: "DO NOT CONNECT THIS MACHINE TO MICROSOFT ACCOUNT NO MATTER HOW MUCH IT ASKS."
