And not even a remotely creative statement. 🙄

Last I checked they haven’t yet added user-facing controls to configure this yet. I don’t know where it is on the priority list.

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.

Congrats on not reading the post at all and writing something that literally has nothing to do with this thread.

It takes a special level of determination to be so completely clueless.

Do you believe that on a social platform like this, democracy is the best policy when it comes to what is shown and what is not?

Ah, the Internet equivalent of “I know you are but what am I?”…

“this thing that doesn’t affect me at all annoys me and shouldn’t be visible”

There’s other people here who like the transparency. Literally all you have to do is keep scrolling…

Driving a Leaf 100km a day does not mean that the battery has a range of 100km or more. It is extremely common to charge whenever you park, whether at work or when stopping at home or any time in between drives. With a charge in the middle of the day, even a car with a max range of 50km could still do 100km in one day.

The point he’s making is not about range, it’s about the longevity and the reliability of the car.

Easy to set up, mine is working great.

It’s accessing literally anything you self host from home, with minimal latency and without any port forwarding on your router or exposing your services to the Internet.

It’s primary benefit is how fast it is, how much easier it is to set up for even the most novice of users, and how ubiquitous all the clients are.

Plus it’s free for 100 endpoints, which is far more than most individuals will need for home labs. And even that you can get around by using subnet routing.

If you’ve ever wanted to run your own sort of Dropbox or Google docs (Syncthing/Next cloud) but didn’t want to deal with the security hassle of exposing it to the Internet, this removes that completely. No more struggling with open ports, fail2ban, or messing with reverse proxies.

This is literally the point. “Entitled tech workers childishly resign over requests to return to office” is a much, much better headline then “Grindr lays off half its staff”.

They’re doing it on purpose. It’s no longer about some old school mentality of "butts in seats " and micromanaging…these companies have realized this is a way to massively cut costs without the hit in stock price/public opinion.

We need to stop falling for this “they are so old fashioned lol” narrative, because they’re all more than happy to let you believe that.

No offense, but saying this almost completely disqualifies you from having this conversation about private messengers.

This drives me nuts. I like Chrome. It’s simple, it’s fast, the extensions I want run on it (for now), and I love the Google Account Sync because I have an Android phone. This greatly pisses off people for whatever reason, despite the fact I’ve never had a bad opinion about Firefox and love what they’re doing too, and I never criticize anyone for choosing Firefox.

As with everything open source communities need nuance and understanding, otherwise they start to feel like cults.

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.

Ludicrously simple setup, that’s all.

There is something odd about the fonts used for Thunder. Maybe the spacing between the letters, I don’t know exactly.

Hm, then respectfully, if it’s not possible for a RedHat employee to be anything more than an advertisement and we’re judging the number of people on either side to be the indicator of truth, then I guess there’s nothing productive for you and I to discuss. I didn’t hear anything that sounded like rationalization or excuses from the RedHat guy.

Something people were getting for free is no longer free. Those people will always outnumber anyone who has a different perspective on the situation. Which is why I said that FOSS enthusiasts have a tendency not to understand or appreciate what they’re getting for “free” and everyone wants to treat open source like it’s entirely powered by community and spirit and “money” or “compensation” or “economics” don’t really mean anything because we shrug it aside.

Everyone wants to demonize the big bad corporate IBM but somehow we’re totally happy looking the other way while Rocky Linux happily clones the product and sells support contracts to NASA that should rightfully go to RedHat, no matter how much money RedHat makes.

I think RedHat has provided tons of alternatives and compromises that don’t involve buying RHEL. Again, I don’t think this decision is going to convert anyone to a paid customer.

This is not remotely ghetto, this is really well done. Sure the fans are a bit wonky but that is one hell of a machine for the money.

Well done!
