Having a two party system is so dumb to begin with, but yes that way of thinking is the perfect road to a one party system (either directly or indirectly, either long or short term, which could be harmful regardless), the US are cooked anyway because no party could be made let alone survive unless backed by the rich and powerful…it would be anything but « giving the people a voice » 💀

Burn the trump flag

wait the what flag now ? 😐

which side is the USA and which side are the usurping dictatorship

Damn the US are truly a lost cause… Time like these I’d expect riots, not whatever this is…

This will look horrible to their own side

I can’t… this is so stupid…

Damn it I’m so used to read @nottheonion that I completly fell for it that was spot on 😂

Glad to see there’s still good satire sites, most of the satire sites I used to follow gave up some years ago since reality started to become satire itself.

Yeah I was uncomfortable bringing up the «pro-Russia propaganda» thing, I am aware what’s going on in Ukraine is no simple topic, in the context of my post it was more about war propaganda which in some cases I can be fearful of. I’m not gonna lie though as much as I’m quite open to pro-Russia and anti-Ukraine sentiment I’m not pro-Russia myself, I’m just distrustful or at the very least careful, but it has to do with the financial ties Russia has with the far right in my country, the fact that in the past they managed to make a media outlet in my country that spread misinformation benefiting far right views, and lastly because in the political history of my country being blindly pro-Russia contributed to the death of our communist party (by crumbling the confidence of its members and the trust of their voters), which was one of the biggest and beneficial party we’ve ever had (not like Russia is to blame in this case though).

Thanks 😊

Yeah it couldn’t believe what I read when I saw those exact words from lemmy.world own post 💀

What blew my mind even more was the quote from an Hexbear announcement that they used as justification : it was only telling Hexbear users to be nice which made absolutly no sense.

its mostly just right wing noise

Yeah expected as much…

also we defed from blahaj because her admin refused to moderated ableism and transphobia against our users

wtf I didn’t expect that 💀 I think I even expected anything but that…breaks my mind

Didn’t expect to learn about the pig pics thing…

Thanks and yes, I surely don’t belong elsewhere :)

Yeah I expected as much :/

I knew that whatever I’d learn it’d be a cause for concern. Even if predictable I find it quite discomforting to think that so many instances would make so much room to the right by suppressing and spreading hate about a big leftist instance like Hexbear (and even others), it’s especially disappointing since I do like lemmy a lot. I’m also a bit torned because now I don’t want anything to do with .world and others, but I miss some of the communities I followed when I didn’t know any of this.

At least I’m glad I found this place, I actually like it here.

Thanks :)

Yeah I wish I could have a way to reply to everyone (feels wrong not to), I don’t know any other way other than adding something to my post and hope some people will see.

Funniest thing is, I read this after learning Chrome had a zero-day exploit, Brave might not even have the patch yet 😆

To be fair, on sites like privacytests.org Brave seems to pass more tests than default Firefox, but these tests don’t take extensions into accounts. Extensions wouldn’t add much to Brave since it’s a chromium browser, but Firerox should have better results with ublock alone…and then there are forks and ways to harden Firefox on top of that.

And of course it’s not taken into account how sus Brave is, if I remember right Brave search has already been caught spying on its users (and used word play to pretend it was open-source) and then there’s also the crypto scam. Passing most of the security/privacy tests won’t help if the browser is spying and exploiting you.

Omg I forgot about chess 💀

This is so stupid it’s breaking my mind. I grew up hating sports because of gendered separation, never made any sense to me why we couldn’t try to have fair mixed teams even with all the «fairness in sports» fallacy thing.

But this is like a whole new level of stupid. Except it’s not even new 😩

There’s been quite a lot of power plant fuckups in truth, but Chernobyl being the first one made it an exemple to avoid, especially considering how worse it could have gone. It also shed a light on the dangers to the public and how any government can fuck up and lie about it, not just communists ones, even if it surely made perfect anti-USSR propaganda.

In my (capitalist) country we’ve even had a saying ever since the disaster : «The radiations can’t get past our borders», wich is said to express distrust in our own government to act accordingly to any disaster… Because when Chernobyl happend of course that what they said, even when people got sick. I’m sure all of Europe has similar sayings and distrust ever since.

Having said that, it’d sure be great to have other shows about other nuclear distasters/contaminations, it’d spread a wider awerness of them, and even if some were less impactfull than others it’d still be enough to make great stories.

Wait wait wait… esport teams aren’t mixed ?? 💀 Wtf is wrong with this world…

Vivaldi is somehow on top of Floorp so I’d say his reasons are laughable at best.

It’s because it’s quite popular so alot of people know it exists, but yes it’s a handheld console made by steam and it’s using linux, it’s basicly a Linux console.

Unless the Steamdeck flew under your radar you should know that you can absolutly play games on Linux. Most of the exceptions are big online games with crazy anti-cheats (yeah in that case no luck).

As for hope : migrating to another OS (be it Linux, MacOS or whatever) can be disorienting at first, wich tend to repel some people (it’s like learning how to use a pc for the first time), that’s actually the most important thing to keep in mind for everything to go smoothly, you don’t need to be a tech wizzard, just to be patient.

As long as you don’t rush things, don’t expect everything to behave as somekind of windows clone and learn how it works a bit you should be fine.

Before you try anything I’d also suggest you check if all the software you are using are available on Linux and if not what alternative you can use : alternativeto.net can help. To check if the games you play work you can also go to protondb.com. Preparing as much as you can before install is a huge plus, and it’s really not that hard.

As an exemple I’ve helped a curious friend who wanted to try Linux, they’re the most tech illiterate person I’ve ever known…like even worse than some old people. It took them two hard month to be fully acclimated, like as fine as they were doing on windows if not better. Never even asked me for help ever since. (My eyes still bleed when I see how they’re using their pc but they clearly have no issue doing whatever they’re doing) So if they can I’m sure anyone can.
