  Darn, this was a very well run instance. I appreciated much the admins’ stance on defederation. It was refreshing being able to self-curate my own feed.

  Let me just gather my trinkets and look for a different place to be…Image

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tragic⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I use windows 11, and I can’t think of one annoyance that I wasn’t able to uninstall or turn off through settings or local group policy.

  I did this once after installing it a year ago, and it has never bothered me since. Not even windows update gives me problems. I can think of one time in windows 10 that I had problems with an update, but this was years ago.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Catbox.moe got screwed 😿⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Lots of lemmy content is hosted in catbox, hopefully they get it sorted. I sent a standalone donation, I prefer to host my own images so my usage doesn’t warrant a monthly subscription.

  Hopefully some of those heavy users pitch in.

  Never said you couldn’t, just that that’s what you look like. If asbestos is what you into then go right ahead 👍

  You’re supposed to just take the headline at face value. It helps maintain the outrage from people who never have used apple devices.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In 2025, Apple still makes it hard to play your own MP3s, so I wrote my own app⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nothing

  • You can import music from itunes, if you like doing it the old way.
  • There are a crap ton of media player apps with ability to connect to self hosted or cloud storages. Many are single payment and others are open source. One good one is nPlayer.
  • You can put mp3 on the native files app and just tap on it.

  The article is just misleading ragebait turned into an excuse to show their app and things about iOS development.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My PC is tired⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A PC will always be the best gaming platform, this doesn’t mean it’s for everyone though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Even Starfield's community patch modders are growing 'disenchanted' with the sci-fi RPG, as volunteers depart in droves: 'If nobody comes forward, we may have to retire the project'⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It was bound to happen, modders can’t fix a soulless game. There’s no interesting characters, factions, or world setting to grab anyone’s interest.

  I thought modders would have abandoned it sooner though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly, I feel the mindset of ‘line must go up or you die’ is really ingrained in people’s minds. Even if everyone leaves for something else lemmy will still be here, slowly getting better with updates and time.

  Doesn’t matter how many people use it. As long as even 1 person wants to use lemmy it will be here…

  I know about the sarcophagus juice, but what the heck is the tomb cheese? lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dropbox decided to reduce their global workforce by approximately 20% or 528 employees.⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m sure he’s taking full responsibility going to sleep in his mansion tonight, with his big salary and bonuses, which will probably see a nice bump from this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What I learned from 3 years of running Windows 11 on “unsupported” PCs⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have already looked up most of what you recommended, and I arrived at the same initial conclusion…

  • OpenRGB doesn’t list support for my Gigabyte mobo, or XPG ram (unless I’m reading this wrong). I need this to stop the default behavior which is rainbow puke
  • AMD adrenalin only lists 3 distros, and none of which I’d like to use (I’d prefer linux mint LMDE)
  • Plus I haven’t even talked about the apps (office for starters, then itunes+icloud which I use to sideload apps)
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What I learned from 3 years of running Windows 11 on “unsupported” PCs⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Linux doesn’t have several programs I use to control my peripherals, the mobo RGB profile, and GPU fan control from Sapphire. It also doesn’t have a proper AMD adrenalin as far as I’ve checked, nor firmware updater for SSD/NVME, and the list goes on and on. I also heard controlling high refresh rate displays on linux is a nightmare.

  If I want to use the gaming PC I built to its full potential then I need windows…

  The article is still dumb though, anyone left behind using old hardware should not go through the pain of forcing win11 to run. They all should switch to linux

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bitwarden Makes Change To Address Recent Open-Source Concerns⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I knew a comment like this was coming, but unless you can show how microsoft can decrypt my kdbx I stand fully by my current setup.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bitwarden Makes Change To Address Recent Open-Source Concerns⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s a big difference. You trust entities like bitwarden/lastpass/etc to properly encrypt the data, protect your master key, and trust their entire architecture behind the scenes.

  When you encrypt the keepass DB that’s all done by you locally with a open source client. No one knows your master key, and you get a simple encrypted file. You can hand that file to hackers if you want, will be useless without the key.

  I put one of the copies of my keepass on onedrive, and syncs perfectly across all devices.

  Companies can enshiffity at a moments notice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bitwarden Makes Change To Address Recent Open-Source Concerns⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why would anyone trust any company with their passwords??

  Just use keepass and not bother with BS

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starfield's first DLC is one of the worst Bethesda and DLCs of all time⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, it all hinged in the fact that under all those glitches and bugged mechanics CDPR still had a nice game. Starfield can’t be salvaged cuz the core game is just mediocre shit.

  I wanna say it’s a failed IP at this point, but who knows how many copies sold. What is sure is it doesn’t deserve any more of my time. I have the DLC but won’t reinstall that garbage
