I just meant that so many ppl are using signal that it makes it hard to switch to something else because then you’d have to convince your friends to switch too.

Signal is large enough to have its own network effect now 🙁

Australian Politics@aussie.zone•[Video] Australian police violently beat up protester with his hands up at demonstration against Israeli president Isaac Herzog visiting.
8·3 months agoWell we see here one cop going off the rails and attacking a civilian full force. So we might say ok just that 1 cop is a bad apple but not all of them are like that. Fair.
But what did the rest of them do? Will they report/punish/fire the bad cop? Usually that’s not what happens. They defend their own, which makes them complicit.

Buy European@feddit.uk•Fairphone 6 review: cheaper, repairable and longer-lasting AndroidEnglish
1·3 months agoI do have a lot of headsets but no phone to use them with, but what bothers me most about Fairphone in particular is the hypocrisy.
They are all sustainable and “fair” and all that jazz, but just like all the corpos they removed the jack to sell their wireless buds…
I have a Remarkable 2, and it has root access and through toltec you can install some open source software on it. Not too bad, but its main interface and format is proprietary, and what you can do with FOSS on it is pretty limited.
They seem more interested in getting users subscribed to their cloud. Syncing your notes in any local way is not encouraged or supported, nor is OCR :(
I also had a bad experience with their support - I was asking if I could purchase a tiny rubber foot that fell of the back of mine - their reply was that they saw the date of purchase and recommended I just send it in and get a refurbished one.

24·10 months agoYeah it’s FLOSS and you can do whatever you want with it - no doubt due to the leftist beliefs of the authors.
Regarding doing saying and thinking whatever one wants - yeah I didn’t censor anyone, I’m not an unhinged mod with an appetite to ban anyone who disagrees with me - and there’s no way to stop someone from thinking whatever they want anyway wtf are we even talking about?
I just thought it’s in bad taste to use someone’s FLOSS software whilst calling them slurs. Alternatives exist which would be more aligned ideologically with OP’s beliefs, that’s all.

I thought of a thing that could save it - put a transistor diagram inside the letter “o”. It kind of looks like the letter K, and also fits with the transistor theme.
Are all the people using Wayland arranging their windows every time a program launches, or running a tiling WM?
Yes.
Plasma 6.4 should bring initial support for restoring windows but I haven’t heard much about it in the latest announcements so I guess it’s not ready to use yet.
Reminds me of a joke I’m going to attempt to translate:
- Why do woodpeckers have beaks?
- So they don’t smash their heads against the tree.

I like the show, and if the books are even better, I’m curious what I’m missing out on :D
