Why wait? Dual boot, get cozy, still have the ability to go back to Windows if needed, find alternative apps, and soon enough, you won’t need the Windows partition :) Worked for my partner, my brother, and myself

Kind of an odd one there in that as far as I understand, they were reusing one of their IP’s, Red Dead Revolver. Ironically, I played Red Dead Revolver as a kid, never played RDR2. That said, it’s not like it’s a cohesive universe between the two by any means, so your point still stands.

My perspective is simple, a win is a win. If someone makes the leap to Linux, that’s a huge win, regardless of distro.

I fully expected someone to respond like this, but here’s the thing…
My wife and I moved over to Manjaro when it was the hot new thing and we were new to Linux. She stays on LTS and only updates a couple times a year - and thusly have had no issues at all with it. I’m not about to demand that she let me re-image her computer and undo all of her customizations just because the internet hates Manjaro.

Simple fact is that she’s on Linux and I’m proud of her for being willing to take that step.
I named several other distros including the very ones that you man-splaned to me, don’t get hung up on the one ;)

Fedora KDE on home computer
Manjaro KDE on wife’s computer
Endeavor Sway on small laptop
MX Linux XFCE on GPD Pocket
Fedora GNOME on work non-sanctioned laptop
Ubuntu WSL on work sanctioned laptop

You’ve got excellent taste, my friend

[Actively using Azure Devops and ServiceNow] oh…

Lord of the Flies up in there, hot damn!

Downvoting due to rules, but this is a favorite of mine, the music is obscenely good, too

To piggy-back off of this, it’s not entirely uncommon to create another directory at root in enterprise environments, using /data or /application That said, I only do that for enterprise, for my personal computer, my distro defaulted to auto-mounting to a directory for each drive inside of /mnt, and I rather like that and intend to stick with it.

Especially in a paid service, like why do I pay for these services if you’re still going to advertise, track, or datamine? I know the answer is greed, why profit off of one option when you can profit off of all of them, but I, the consumer, am fed up with the customer abuse.

• Lemmy
• My local Lemmy instance
• Lutris
• KDE
• Not sure if you want to count paying for Bitwarden

I pay a small amount monthly to each, I figure instead of paying $5-10 for Netflix or something, I’ll give it instead to these fantastic folks. Most of them are going through some major service, whether that’s Patreon, Paypal, whatever…I already have a credit card with my spending being tracked, I don’t mind if my love for the open source community becomes a documented metric.

Damn…Vimms Lair was my favorite, friggin Nintendo doing what it does best…

I’m happy about any new features that draw more users to a federated alternative :)

As much as it pains me to say it, I agree and am annoyed at the amount of “no, fuck Google” in response. I agree, fuck Google, but not because they’re charging for a service so good that we all use it, fuck Google for its heavy user tracking of paying users. I understand it costs immensely to host the sheer amount of data that they do, and they still allow creators to have a portion of what’s made from each video. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all about sticking to the man and all that, but to want a website that provides the same service without any costs involved is unreasonable. Peertube is the closest solution we see, and there are still costs involved for anyone hosting a server. I hate that YouTube is our only real option and I’d love something different, but they already have all of our content, and ultimately, they’re fairly reasonable with their demands (pay for our service or watch our ads). The amount of user tracking they do is what’s unacceptable to me, but that’s across all of their products, and I would love to see some enforcement of minimum required data.

Eternity, loved it on Reddit, love it on Lemmy, bless the Open Source community for keeping it alive

I think a lot of younger generation, myself included, prefer casual responses, conflating professionalism with being rude, slimy, or otherwise malintentioned

Also a sysasmin, really don’t wanna learn it…or have to type it on the daily

That’s a great callout, and something we should be considering more often
