I think acknowledging that there may be things we don’t know and if you’re trying not to be tracked not carrying a phone is probably smart makes sense. The people making these sweeping assertions about how phones work in general with no evidence not so much.

How is this relevant

What anticompetitive practices? This normally refers to things like selling at a loss long enough to destroy fledgling competition and the like. As far as I’m aware, steam just… provides good services that other stores don’t?

Lol that’s not a false equivalency. You don’t get to just decide words mean things they don’t because it sounds nice in your head.

The only thing that is lacking for compatibility incompatible is drivers. If that’s what you meant you should have said so instead of saying hardware needs to be designed. If that’s not what you meant then you don’t know what you’re talking about.

You’d have to design hardware specifically that’s compatible with Linux
What makes you think that?

Can’t agree on Angel next door. It’s basically an incel fantasy???
- Comment on What are your top three recommendations for someone new to anime? 5 weeks ago:
Anime is a medium rather than a genre. The "ultimate anime recommendation flowchart"s that pop up now and then are a pretty good place to start with different tastes in mind.

So we’re teaching the children that only high level art is worthwhile and they shouldn’t even try to make at themselves because they suck at it and you can just generate it. Cool.

- Comment on Google's slow Chrome Extension reforms anger developers 2 months ago:
Mozilla making the judgment that it may be more effective to attempt to push advertising tech towards more privacy friendly technology (i don’t agree with them but I can understand the thought process) and Google being an evil advertising empire are not even remotely the same thing.
While you’re technically correct, this false equivalence you’re trying to draw is just absurd.

As if these are all equally deep in advertising with the same motivations and history

You don’t need justification to change jobs. Feeling like you want you is enough reason.
