America moment.

Seems to be librist that’s the issue here. The nobara-amdgpu-config package issue also errors out on the first command though, skipping a package.

Problem: cannot install the best update candidate for package pipewire-codec-aptx-0.3.69-1.fc38.x86_64

• nothing provides pipewire >= 1.0.1 needed by pipewire-codec-aptx-1.0.1-1.fc38.x86_64 from rpmfusion-free-updates

This also happened on the following nobara-sync command. And the second command gives:

error: package nobara-amdgpu-config is not installed

Went through with it anyway but I feel that’s potentially one of those things that eventually causes issues further down the line until the system doesn’t boot anymore…

I already fail at the first one:

sudo dnf remove -y blender discord telegram-desktop oneapi-level-zero librist libndi-sdk firefox onlyoffice-desktopeditors

Which errors out:

Error:
Problem: The operation would result in removing the following protected packages: plasma-desktop
(try to add ‘–skip-broken’ to skip uninstallable packages)

Using a Chrome user agent in FF can result in broken video / audio playback on various sites.

“You’re just a tiny minority, most people like the change”

They did the same shit with their redesign with their idiotic floating tabs. They look ugly and they even take up way more space, while displaying less information, for literally no reason. They argued the need this change for future FF features, which yet, several years later, have yet to appear. Here’s a quote from “Paul”, one of their moderators - almost 3 years ago:

Hi,

We bring a modernized and differentiated look to tabs since Firefox 89 in order to create a signature Firefox look and experience. This major redesign will help us enable more use cases and features in the future.

I love Firefox and will continue to use it, but its decline is a mixture of Google’s aggressive embrace, extend, and extinguish approach and straight up continued mismanagement of the Mozilla Corporation.

A couple days ago.

I couldn’t even get an activation mail from fedia.io. Not sure what’s up with them.

That’s bullshit and you know it. Lemmy.ml is blocked by almost no one. I also see hexbear and Lemmygrad when I sort by New.

I’m surprised how many people use bleach / bleach based products. You really don’t need such aggressive stuff the majority of times. Regular cleaners work just fine. Or is that an US thing where bleach is in every cleaning product or something?

Well, Reddit was open source once as well. Neither going closed source nor all the various scandals, including the last big protest, did a whole lot in changing anything at all.

The fact that the Lemmy devs, who also host Lemmygrad & Lemmy.ml, are Tankies.

Mate, that subreddit is dead because the few upvotes here are from people who came from there. So of course there aren’t a whole lot of people on that sub anymore - but that’s not indicative of the state of Reddit as a whole, especially compared to the fediverse.

Kbin, on the other hand, has too many issues.

No offense to Kbin’s developer Ernest, who is working hard, but Kbin is still in alpha stage, and it often has server errors (in fact, kbin.social is down right now, and it has been for the whole day), and the userbase and engagement are far behind Lemmy. There are also federation problems between Kbin and Lemmy sometimes. Kbin is also trying to be a more all-in-one product, with both microblogging and forums, and the users there like to have both, which is fine, but Reddit users are mostly forum users and they seem to prefer Lemmy more.

It was not fully down and this completely ignores the issues that Lemmy had when they updated to the next version a while back. Really unnecessary bashing.

But I realized later that this was a misunderstanding on my part, and that this is not an issue as long as the project is open source, with an open development, and as long as you avoid instances like lemmygrad.

Totally not suspicious, but at the minimum a bit ignorant on how open source software development typically goes. And it isn’t just Lemmygrad, but even their allegedly more moderate main instance Lemmy.ml, which is really just more of the same as far as users and moderation issues go. More problematic is the fact though that you’re still supporting the devs and their problematic views simply by supporting their software and its development by directly using it, and this won’t change until a proper fork from actually decent people is going to become the main used Lemmy software.

And overall, no one won this, because the whole protest was a failure as way too many people just remained on Reddit.

It’s like “jaywalking”. It purely exists to bully and discriminate against pedestrians and declare the streets belong to the cars. That’s what you get when you have big ass corporations do the lobbying.

Well, can’t account for all niche operating systems, especially when they’re that restrictive.

Firefox supports ublock.

Literally counters with a “NO U!!11” reply … 🤡

Lemmy.ml user using a hexbear hosted picture in a classic self-own. 🤡
If you’re such a fan of starvation then please, do us all the favor.

The Lemmy devs, who are also tankies, yeah.
Tankie is as much of an “insult” as Nazi is. Spreading disinformation & insults and glorifying Stalin and Mao while defending modern ruscism is just as vile and should be cancelled just the same. And it’s funny you say well-“modded” instances. I assume you mean moderated, which isn’t even done properly on Lemmy.ml itself, as they completely ignore reports of insults & disinformation from tankies.
Whatever. Thanks for showing your true colors. At least I can tag you appropriately now.

Defamation isn’t protected under US laws either. It might not be super well enforced, especially on the internet, but that’s also not really exclusive to the US. A lot of countries are just now really getting into the legalities of what happens on the internet, for better or worse in certain cases. But generally speaking, laws also apply to what you say online of course.
