Fediverse@lemmy.world•It's been a while, which Lemmy instances should I be on?English
36·2 months agoNot the one you’re on.
edit I answered based on the title and now I read the description. You might be on the right instance.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•iRobot’s revenue has tanked and it’s almost out of cash | "Roomba customers are understandably concerned about the impact these current financial troubles might have on their home cleaning robots."English
0·2 months agoI’m somewhat interested in what’s coming up from Kärcher. Being a company based in Germany, EU, I’m stupidly hoping that EU data protection laws prevent them from doing the shittiest things.
The real problem is not Rust, or that somebody decided to rewrite sudo in Rust. These are both good things.
The actual real problem is that Ubuntu adopts these in their mainline distribution when the release version is 0.something. I mean sure, this will get the worst bugs noticed and fixed sooner but come on. Have a little empathy for your dumb users. They didn’t choose to be that way.
This is your freedom, enjoy it.
Matrix seems to work well. I’m on a smallish non-profit server. I regard it as the premium open-source step forward from IRC.
The worst problem is that there are really no channels that I care to follow.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why is it so hard to get friends to leave Discord, WhatsApp, Instagram, and others? Anyone else feel this?

Gravity brought me back to Arch from Fedora.
Ah ok. Well, the decent alternative to all that is Tesla.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•How decentralized Bluesky is compared to the Fediverse.English
1·5 months agoHow do you manipulate Bluesky?
The same way you manipulate Twitter, by tweaking the algorithm.
So does GrapheneOS apparently, as long as we’re talking about Androids.
What does Android Auto do?

Fediverse@lemmy.world•How decentralized Bluesky is compared to the Fediverse.English
3·5 months agoHow do you algorithmically manipulate those 12M people with Mastodon? BTW, Bluesky has almost 40M users.
Good reviews. Unfortunately the device is 18x10x4mm larger than my already gigantic Pixel 9
1 - tap to pay. I don’t see how this can practically be done. Like, at all.
Yeah, better go back to carrying pieces of plastic with you at all times. Bonus: you can leave your phone home and still pay for things.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Bazzite has gained nearly 10k users in 3 months while other Fedora Atomic distros remain fairly stagnant
11·5 months agoCachyOS might be the easiest one that gives you something decent. It’s basically an Arch Linux with slightly better compiler optimizations and tweaked kernels. Also a tweaked version of proton in the core repos.
Started by a German dude so EU++ or something. And of course it’s based on Arch Linux, which was started by a Canadian dude.
It’s on top of distrowatch too, but I have no idea what that implies.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Looking for a FOSS alternative to Google Docs for remote collaboration
2·5 months agoFine product but is it FOSS?










Reddit has so much more content and frankly 80% of their real non-bot userbase seem to be ok. Wouldn’t hurt at all to get like 10% of the best of them here. That’d be about 5 million people.
Ok, now that I think about it, 70k => 5M would probably hurt the servers a bit.
Let’s go for the top 1%, we all love the top 1% right?
