Getting wasted in bars and clubs is not how one finds quality life partners.
Similarly, if no one is into you, that might be because the core of your identity is feeling desperately lonely while getting drunk in bars and clubs.

Isn’t all youtube content engineered in that way though?

It’s true that development takes skill, time, and effort, but there are many rewards which are not monetary.
I don’t “expect” a dev to put themselves into poverty maintaining an app that I feel like I deserve. But if there are apps maintained by devs as a hobby or whatever and are opensource then naturally those will be my preference.
I’ve never been able to get this to work in a stock debain 12 / gnome environment.
I guess everyone has their own level of tolerance for ads.
To me, anything ad supported has a terrible “UX”. I’d put up with a lot to avoid ads.
Obviously you don’t care about ads and that’s fine too
I don’t get the tribalism around apps.
Somme are good, others less-so.
None are worth putting up with ads for.
I think the reason why it’s so pervasive is that it taps into the romantic notion that things were better in the good old days, and people can overlay whatever meaning they wish.
My opinion doesn’t mean much since it’s been forever since I tried any other distro but I’m surprised Debian isn’t on the beginners list.
it might be a bit too involved for an absolute beginner to configure to perfection
I’m not really sure what this means? It might be more accurate to say it’s not the best distro if you’d like to tinker with your desktop experience.
Notably, nothing on the beginners list ought to be run as a headless server, but debian is perfect for that job. The reason I’ve become so enamoured with debian over the years is that I can use it on my desktop and on servers and it’s the same system - everything is exactly where I’m used to it being.
Australia checking in.
Everyone can send and receive SMS. It’s always the primary /default contact method.
Close friends can be contacted via whatever third party app but there’s no single platform everyone uses other than SMS.
I think this is a misconception.
In the 90s it may have been true - windows was focused on user experience on the desktop. Pre- internet, security just wasn’t relevant.
Even in that era though, Linux was running on servers in universities et cetera managing many users.
I guess this is where the reputation arose.
These days I don’t think either is inherently more secure than another in a general sense.
For specific uses cases one might be more “reliable” than another just because it’s used more and therefore has more people looking at it. For example, the vast majority of Web servers are in a Linux environment, but the vast majority of on premise email servers would be Windows.
What I’m saying is, in 2024 the general security of each platform is going to be comparable, and only a very small component in your chain of reliability. Like if you develop a threat model, and write policies, and maintain behaviours in practice, the underlying security provided by the environment isn’t really that relevant.
Lemmy users will downvote any such comments on sight.

Thunderbird is fine.
Maybe I have too much grey in my beard - I don’t care how modern it looks.
Perhaps. I’m not expert but I’m just not convinced you’d get good compliance across instances.
After all, even minimal non- compliance makes the whole thing pointless
It would be great if everything could be classified in this way, but is it practically possible to apply a more complex system like this across instances, given that we struggle with the simpler NSFW tag?
refuse.
That’s just not practically possible.
OP said they’re running a small business. It’s great that they want to fly the flag for FOSS, but they’re not in the business of promoting and advocating for FOSS. They still need to do the things they need to do.
Refusing to file your taxes on the grounds that the software provided is not open source is a great way to no longer be in business.
My partner of 12 years and mother of my children got citizenship in my home country a few days ago. It’s been a long and difficult road to get here.
Nice. These look great.
Do you know if it will turn off entirely if the temp is low enough? Or they just idle away at 300rpm or so.
The flag looks a bit like a disgruntled goose.
