You made it? Feels more like ChatGPT did.

KDE Plasma. GNOME is nice but I like the customizability and the features of KDE Plasma.

Welcome to the community.

I do have a question: Do you like your current desktop environment (Cinnamon)? Some newcomers complain that it looks quite dated (which I agree). If so, you could try out KDE Plasma or GNOME instead.

I discovered the Fediverse through Mental Outlaw and then started using Lemmy after the Reddit API thing.

You can use Shizuku with Canta. You can pretty much uninstall any app that way (even system apps), but you of course can also brick your phone if you aren’t careful. There are builtin warnings for critical system apps that will brick your phone.

Please read the book fully before starting any real project. It will save you headaches later

That’s true for every service, centralized ones included.

You just might need to use something else for your name.

charging you money for the pleasure of cleaning up fake shit

Since when is cleaning up any kind of shit pleasing?

best distro ever

Cloudflare? Cloudflare acting as a MITM is the last thing I wish.

Brings back memories when I used to play Minecraft on my PS4.

Goddam, I really miss those tutorial maps. Anywhere I can find them and play them in Minecraft Java?

more spyware, yay

I don’t recommend LW, it’s full of Redditeurs and defederated from instances I like such as hexbear and lemmygrad.

Ah, that explains it. Have a nice day.

I have not been convinced lemmy.world being the largest instance is actually a bad thing. It’s bad for federation, I suppose, but they’re all Redditeurs and I appreciate having a containment zone for them.

Most people here are from reddit or other centralized and enshittified platforms such as Twitter.

LW got recommended often and it created a snowballing effect, which is why it became the biggest lemmy instance. Unfortunately people keep doing it and LW admins refuse to close down their registrations temporarily to allow other instances to get some traffic as well. That’s why some people (like me) advise people (like you) to stop recommending LW over other instances.

And LW is not a “containment” zone for former redditors.

no, I migrated away from LW a few months ago. I am currently on discuss.tchncs.de

I think you confused my current account with the inactive one on LW that I only use for moderating in asklemmy sometimes.

That’s for desktop.

pretty much. That’s why the discussion is still on draft.

LW pretty much made the Lemmyverse almost centralized, thanks to people like you.

There once was a discussion going on to implement DIDs in ActivityPub.
