"Millionaire hit with $20 antitrust fine in Spain"

So much talk, nothing to back it up. Blatant PR move.

"Intellectual pedigree" is the most pretentious things I've heard in a while ...

This is good news. I want to use this post to shout out Heroic launcher.

A small team of devs (GitHub says 150 contributors, but likely only a small percentage of that consistently works on it), made a free, open-source launcher that is VASTLY better than Epic's piece of shit.

I mean, for real, this multi-billion dollar company can't even properly make a basic-ass piece of software. For over three years it has been a laggy mess that bombards the bottom right of my screen with ads. No significant changes or updates that have made the launcher more usable. I deadass pirate the games epic has given me for free so I don't have to deal with their launcher.

Gentoo is the final boss of Linux installs. (Linux From Scratch is the raid boss)

I installed it last year. After watching it compile for half an hour, I decided that a source-based distro was something I have no interest in daily-driving.

There are legitimate criticisms of Manjaro, and these days there are better options like Archinstall or EndeavorOS, but yeah it's mostly just become a popular distro to shit on.

Canonical deserves way more hate than the Manjaro devs tbh.

Mostly the admins. They've forgotten to renew their SSL certs multiple times, causing various issues, and they introduced a bug that briefly DDOSed the entire AUR.

The distro itself seems fine. Although, I don't see why you wouldn't just use Arch with Archinstall or EndeavorOS if you really want that GUI installer. Both are much better managed imo.

95% of city planners quit before adding the final lane that fixes traffic

I understand what you mean, but I believe Reddit themselves confirmed the breach. If Reddit didn't pay up, then the data has been/is being auctioned off on the dark web.

Oh no!

Anyways ...

Pitting two piles of shit against each other does not make the winner any better.

I'd only heard of Kbin, Lemmy, Mastodon, and Peertube until now. Pixelfed looks cool, Owncast and Misskey are too but I don't watch streamers or microblog so.
