Don't talk to me.
portraying people who pretend to be better just because they use a specific distro
How exactly is your setup going to be better
it won't have all the bloat and will reflect who I really am
How the fuck is this satire? It's literally just shaming someone for having different priorities. Like the only attempts at "comedy" here are actually just going for low hanging fruit "I use arch BTW", the entire vegan t-shirt thing, the receding hairline.
no one's fucking downloading Arch to have a quick and easy OOTB experience, and no one's touching Fedora workstation for a lightweight and super tailored OS.
This is a strawman at best, and OP is full of shit.
I went on a trawl on email security and privacy.
It doesn't fucking exist.
Regular mails w/e sure
But I'm never talking to someone via email again.
Fair, although explaining a potential vector for a hypothetical XSS attack and its implications to someone who doesn't know what Javascript is sounds like information overload
witness.
You download a copy of a photo I took to your computer.
I have a website that lets people see the photo, it's a popular website
Except that photo on my website doesn't point to a copy of that photo on one of my computers, it points to the copy on yours.
Millions of people visit my website, and each time they do, they download your copy of my photo.
Uploading that photo to millions of computers across the world fucks up your internet service. You could also switch out my photo for another one, maybe even an offensive one,, but my website would still point visitors to it.
In the original post, this is what a multibillion dollar corporation, a bank, did to a not-for-profit service that keeps a historical record of the internet.
I hinted at the security implications of what happened, but explaining that would make the analogy too complex.
I'm thinking of leaving lemmy, too.
Information is worthless without context, but that's all that content aggregators seem to like.
Community is worthless without connection, anonymous text isn't much to connect over.
All Reddit had going for it was a wealth of diverse experiences for people to draw from. For Lemmy, this is at best a side dish, a sprinkle of gold over a pile of shit.
