happy to help! maybe we should set up a Lemmy Community if none exists already

Best option is still Git Bash 🙃

A bit of a history of trams: they existed before the modern electric bus, as horse trams, because they could carry more people. Most tram networks have been removed since the introduction of the bus. Modern trams however can increase capacity a lot, and even small trams can fix hard problems like in the Lisbon inner city. Many modern trams are somewhere on the light rail spectrum and are both faster and often have more dedicated right of way, so they don’t get stuck in traffic. Understanding this, you can see how you can often also fix the same issues with dedicated bus lanes, but a tram track also fixes refueling properly. A third option is of course a trolley bus or a trolley/battery hybrid. Every location needs something that fits the local circumstances.

As far as I know there is no intention to have Bluesky be proprietary in any way in the long run, just the philosophy is different and closer to P2P networks. For example migration is a big element of the design, unlike Mastodon. But at the moment it’s still being built, hence why it looks much more proprietary for now.

Threads still hasn’t actually fully connected with the fediverse, they are working on that, and until yesterday they weren’t live in Europe yet, so it wasn’t a real alternative for many people. That is changing drastically.

This post sounds to me exactly like people’s reactions to Brexit. They were like “see, it’s not to bad” for the whole time when nothing was implemented yet. And then it actually went live, and everything went to shit. Keep an eye on when things actually go live the way they plan.

I have used almost all of them and ChromeOS is my daily driver.

THIS is the kind of Protect Our Children that we need.

Mostly agree, except many people are fed-up with algorithms, so giving a manual option helps with that.

and when you reach 10%, you basically toggle the general opinion massively.

they also have this English but RTL thing.

That is literally what non-Open Source/capitalism is like:

• You don’t pay, you are the product
• You pay, you are the product and you pay for it

I think the issue most companies don’t realize is that we are forcing many people under a living wage, and at that point being paid better is the only thing that counts.

Build a new internet on top of gemini? :D

When I use Emacs, it’s with Evil.

That is the biggest reason I don’t trust Signal. They implemented Whatsapp’s encryption and while technically the encryption hasn’t been broken, the way it works forces you to leave data on your device, which has been proven dangerous in practice for the kind of people it sets out to protect.

I’m still very much getting used to it, didn’t use it enough yet to give a good opinion about it… I think the idea is great, execution could probably be better but a lot of it is being worked on in the firmware already.

I’m on the fence, I might get a CCX for my TypeMatrix at some point…

I use MessagEase on my phone so if it gets anywhere near that comfort it’s worth it I think. It does take a good while to get used to it though. The chording is amazing but if you already have a great device you are comfortable with you might have a better time with the CCX.

sometimes afaik you could still have success renaming the file to .gif or .gifv I think? Telegram and Whatsapp should also work afaik.

look up mp3 – that didn’t become public domain until pretty recently (I think 2017?)

not an uncommon thing really
