I love Linux. I love the flexibility it gives me and I enjoy tinkering when I feel like it and having something rock solid and reliable when I don't. I don't game on the PC, so this works out great for me. However, my use case isn't everyone else's, and part of the idea of giving people freedom to use their computer the way they want is accepting that sometimes they want to use their computer in a way that you don't like.
Maybe that means using a proprietary operating system. Maybe it means using a search engine that you don't like. But that is what works for them, and sometimes I think the open source people operate on the fallacy of "there's two types of people, those who use FOSS and those who haven't found FOSS yet", and it's just so obnoxious.
You think people go nuts when you tell them you prefer WIndows? Wait until you see their heads spin when I tell them that while I use Arch Linux, I also use Google Chrome, Telegram, Spotify, and Discord...
This is why I unsubscribed from the Android community. I love Android, I use nothing but Linux at home and really appreciate open source software.
But the FOSS...enthusiasm is starting to border on zealotry. It's getting really unpleasant.
This is one of the coolest features I've seen before. Direct linking to settings!! Super cool.
It is when you're publicly begging on said platform. The correct thing to do would have been to reach out over DM or even better, reach out to the production team that runs Mr Beast's channel and begin conversations.
You know, like any other serious company might do.
The only reason he did this publicly is for the attention.
Not remotely.
Maybe certain people should think twice about setting up an entire business model of support based on having the current company do all the engineering work, cloning it, and then taking the support contracts for it.
Both Fedora and CentOS Stream are still very much upstream. Just certain CentOS alternatives are throwing a hissy-fit/tantrum that their nice neat little "cloned distro + support" business model fell apart overnight because they built their entire business off of what's basically (not entirely) a loophole.
Private DNS. I use https://nextdns.io/, and then just change my phone's private DNS address to match.
Works great, easy enough to toggle off if needed.
Seriously, OP's post is highly disrespectful imo. We can be excited for Boost without putting down others.
Well that's pretty goddamn rude. The current clients are phenomenal for brand new apps that have no preexisting framework to start on, have been progressing very quickly, and are really, really nice to use.
Maybe let's not put others down in our excitement for something we're familiar with.
The use of the word "copycat" in an official communication just seems to immature and juvenile to me.
But honestly, whatever...Threads will either sink Twitter once and for all, or both will fight each other to the death, and those are both win-win in my book.
The performance difference is ridiculous...everything feels faster.
Thank you so much!
I have been using nothing but Linux for the last decade (literally, Arch for years and now Nix) and I'm increasingly growing to hate how so many OSS communities are bordering on zealotry.
I've completely unsubbed from most Android communities now too because they're all such toxic, hostile places to be if you have the sheer audacity to use anything proprietary or closed source.
I've been around this block. I've been both using and contributing to open source projects, some small, some large. I'm proud of what open source developers have achieved and am humbled by most of them. But the users...the users are starting to get really annoying.
