This is a repost from half a year ago OP is a karma farming bot

You make a very good point about Chrome. If Google was not the lord of development I might actually have nodded along with that as well.

My BSD experience comes from Truenas core which did not play nice with docker and needed a ton of custom work with jails. They have since moved to Linux with scale and suddenly everything integrates a lot more nicely.

Though there are multiple Linux versions as well maintained by different companies. But the altruistic dictator still plays a key role. I’m not sure what my opinion is now.

If Windows was free and open source you wouldn’t hear me complaining.

The reason Windows is so dominant to begin with is because they standardized stuff and people didn’t have to open a terminal because of it.

Linux already has a ton of distros. Supporting an entirely different OS is far more of a hassle for developers than releasing a deb snap or flatpak.

It’s amazing. No fragmentation means more standardization. And Linux is Open Source.

Also messenger apps like Signal often have a setting to send higher quality (less compressed) videos which are bigger in size.

In signal it’s Settings > Data and storage > Sent media qualify

The guys running /Politics and /WorldNews will ban people if they don’t endorse israel committing Genocide.

We already have Lemmy.World no need for two of them

Breaking Points has amazing coverage on American politics which matches up with reality unlike those CNN casters which keep getting “surprised” their coverage turned out to be wrong.

Moderation is a big part. Heavily libbed up mods such as the Lemmy.World ones are only allowing one perspective to be posted. Which is why the place is slowly turning into Reddit

This is done in three ways:

• Restricting what content is allowed to be posted using made up metrics like MBFC or calling anything they don’t like an opinion piece.

• Allowing users to insult those with differing opinions EG call them Russian bots or Trump supporters and only banning users when they insult those trolls back.

• .World/WorldNews style just banning anyone who doesn’t have a Biden style Zionist worldview.

The centralization around .World is one of the biggest issues facing Lemmy right now.

NVIDIA spent billions developing the deep learning ecosystem with CUDA around 2013 when it was not known how well it would work. A massive gamble by Jensen.

It’s not a question of standards, NVIDIA monopolized the ecosystem and don’t want to give away their biggest advantage.

Here’s a summary of the relevant parts highlighted.

Israel made up a lie that Hamas raped people on oct7 to manufacture consent for their Genocide. .world banned anyone questioning it.

The UN recently confirmed there is no evidence of rape on oct7 in their report on war crimes committed by both sides.

FlyingSquid is a Zionist. He spreads lies about resistance groups fighting against the Genocide committed by israel and bans users debunking his lies.

As for the News mods they banned me for debunking now confirmed Zionist lies about rape but did so anonymously.

A person that supports the existence of the Apartheids state israel.

Zionism

Zionism[a] is an ethno-cultural nationalist[1][fn 1] movement that emerged in Europe in the late 19th century and aimed for the establishment of a Jewish state through the colonization of a land outside of Europe.[4][5][6][7] It eventually focused on the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine,[8][9][10][11] a region corresponding to the Land of Israel in Judaism,[12][13][14][15] and of central importance in Jewish history. Following the establishment of the State of Israel

Yes the news mods are also liberal Zionists. Any lie or insult for israel goes, but when it comes to accusations they get real stingy.

I got banned from both news and worldnews by a Zionist mod.

And the best part is that they then whine about censorship on .ml

lemmy.world has a massive Zionism problem. Most people appear unable to handle any criticism of their cult.

He’s completely right about everything there.

Unless he is selectively banning trans people, not making a tech discord server about those discussions is perfectly fine.
