I hate the word ‘Islamophobe’; it implies that being afraid of a regressive and violent religion like Islam (and most religions) is irrational.

The word should be ‘Muslimophobe’; most Muslims are sane people who don’t care about the intricacies of the religion.

Saying “God is great” is problematic?

Forgot a “while murdering and beheading innocent civilians” there

The vampire girl would apparently want to

On Nobara OS, I haven’t noticed any performance dip coming from windows.

Linux Experiment on youtube found it performs ~5% better overall in games than Fedora, so that’s probably why.

What the fuck

This is exactly how I think federation should be handled. Great policies as always. I’ve just blocked any instances that have been too annoying so far.

If a user doesn’t agree with how an instance does things, they can (and should) just move to another instance that fits their needs. There are tools already to transfer an account’s subscriptions, until this feature is made native like in Mastodon.

Fhu-fhu always. I am a coward.

We’re home bois

Scammers these days lack basic courtesy 🤦‍♂️

The idea that corporations will come after federated instances that aren’t even creating the posts instead of the source is nonsensical

Is it? Content from federated instances are cached on the instance itself too, no?

I wouldn’t take the risk federating with legally questionable instances, and no one should have to. I’d just use an alt account for that on another instance that is federated, and I do.

if the source is taken down then it won’t be on other instances anymore anyway.

That doesn’t seem to be the case. vlemmy.net has gone down permanently it seems, and I can still access the content on there that were made while it was up from other instances.

Source? I’ll continue to believe in my quantum super-duck until proven otherwise!

At least they blocked a community and not the entire instance. This is how these things should be handled, imo

Hasn’t reddit already gotten into legal trouble multiple times regarding that sub? Even very recently with film piracy.

And let’s not pretend these communities only ‘discuss’ piracy, as much as they try to keep it within that limit. These corporations wouldn’t care even if they did.

Eh? It’s understandable. They shouldn’t be forced to deal with any legal issues that come with it.

You can just use another instance that fits your needs, isn’t that the whole point of this decentralized model?

Maybe this can change in the software space with the advent of foss.

It kinda is I suppose, even if very, very slowly.

And kind of a console too lol with the steam deck

Interesting, I find Davinci to be much better and coherent than Premiere, though it also isn’t foss.

Kdenlive is a great foss alternative though. I use Kde Connect and Krita daily.

Obsidian is amazing. It also feels open-source lol; I thought it was at first.

Maybe because the plugins are, and the notes you make with it are plain markdown files.

Wow, didn’t know that. Makes sense why I see so many lemm.ee users then

Ig it shouldn’t be recommended as a smaller instance then
