Yup, pretty much. And most of the times I've seen right wing people just come comment the most batshit crazy thing imaginable. This doesn't mean left wing lunatics don't exist too.

You're in for a bad ride then. There will always be politics in some magazines/threads.

As the title says I've noticed that in the past day kBin often freezes up when I view a thread (Firefox pops up asking me if I want to stop the tab or not). I use Firefox on EndeavourOS but I didn't have any problems with it for the past 2 weeks.

Is anyone else encountering this/is it a new bug?

I grew such hatred for this man in the past years I wish he would just ruin himself and not hear a delusional thing from him ever again.

I agree. Of all the social media platforms I've used, Linkedin is the closest to an insane asylum I could get.

Hungary is also dependent on EU money, Turkey is not.

  • Keeping my reading habit throughout the past decade.
  • Choosing the "wise" path of Computer Science instead of Physics as my degree: I absolutely love math and physics but sadly in my country research and teaching are poorly financed and paid. I don't love CS but I enjoy it enough and also the pay is very good even for a fresh graduate.
  • Learning about finances and investing. I don't expect to FIRE but at least I think I'm on the good path

And some will probably give Linux a try. I only stopped pirating Windows because it got free, but I have no intention to pay a subscription to be able to use my fucking PC.

Yet he nonetheless proved to be quite capable in his role. As much as I love Bernie, I prefer the safe Biden rather than risking losing to Trump/De Sanctis.

Increasing “value” for shareholders in spite of user experience should be a reason to be sent to the guillotine.

In al seriousness now, being profitable is ok, but these companies try to be ever more profitable while not giving a flying fuck about the impact they have.

And if everyone still jumps ship from lemmy/kbin/whatever to their proprietary platform then the project was doomed from the beginning. I find kBin really good for such a new product (can't speak for mod tools) and I can't imagine many features that might make Threads preferable.

Am I not reading the numbers right or Reddit lost the most traffic of them? I wouldn't exactly call it insignificant (although it's not that much either)

Hello there!

After some lurking on r/Unixporn and its Discord, I'm more and more tempted to try Linux as a daily driver. While I'm by no means a pro, I've been using WSL at work the past year and generally I can fiddle around finding solutions when something doesn't work.

These being said, the main requirements I would have from a distro is to be able to run League of Legends (saw that it's pretty straight forward using Lutris) and not be insanely complex from the get-go (wouldn't want to jump straight into something like Arch), I intend to use something like Hyprland.

So far I am split between OpenSuse Tumbleweed, NixOS, Fedora and EndeavourOS, but would gladly hear alternatives.

LE: Read (and tried to reply to) most messages. I will come back with an update once I decide my pick and see how it goes. Thanks everyone!
