Shoo, shoo

Doesn’t work on me, I just shoo them away. Gotta evolve harder if they wanna try manipulating me.

Well… I expected better longevity, to be honest.

So, my comment was removed without even a warning? What rule did I break? The rules clearly state that memes are allowed in comments.

I see people mentioning obtainium, but never tried it. Will it give some relevant benefits over fdroid for low end devices?
- Comment on ‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners 1 month ago:
Well, you’re technically correct lol
- Comment on ‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners 1 month ago:
And that’s one of the benefits from open source apps. I have a very low end and dated phone, and yet I have more apps installed and hardware functionality than the average person, because I grab everything I can from f-droid. It’s amazing how much smaller and performant everything is.

I still miss firefox os and feel sad for them not succeeding. Their app system could have become a multiplatform standard and allow us to have much more options in the smartphone market, as well as better desktop integration and interoperability :(

Don’t lose hope, lead the resistance!
Out of curiosity, how many flip phones have you used since 2007?

We used to be free from such bullshit, but some companies have started trying to bring similar systems here in Brazil, especially drugstore brands that would ask for our id number in every order to give “discounts”. Fortunately, this practice is now being investigated, and I hope the companies lose the case.

Might sound a bit unrelated, but have you been noticing an apparent rise on ageism too? The social media seem to be fueling it for some reason.

That’s simple. They use an LLM to find the right people for the job /s

Exactly. If there were perfectly interchangeable alternatives, there would have been a true competition and those companies wouldn’t be holding the amount of power they do today.
Moving to alternatives requires some degree of effort and giving up on some microconforts. There’s no other way. There’s no fight without any pain. If we want to fight those companies, we must sacrifice those micro conforts, even if that means reducing tech use as a whole and doing a few things the “old fashioned” way.

Slowly, they will do. Every new one that does and gets media attention pulls others to do the same
- Comment on Is This How Reddit Ends? 2 months ago:
You’re probably right. I can’t speak for the entire world, but at least in my country, reddit’s popularity (according to similarweb data, not my own perception) has only been growing since the api thing. People simply don’t care or come with the “but the communities I like are here” argument. I tried to stay for a while and promote lemmy, but people even got angry about it. They made it clear they don’t like lemmy at all, that I was being inconvenient, and aren’t willing to move. It was so funny to see them speaking ill of the social networks ran by “fascist ceos” as if reddit was any different.
It’s funny to see you so downvoted. Maybe people around here are in denial?

Sorry, I didn’t know there was that annoyance in the article, because I use blockers. You can try using 12ft.io to read it, or maybe the reader mode if your browser has it.

For the curious ones, a very interesting read:

The “exclusively” part from the meme has apparently no source, though.

I’m scared from the possibility of linux going the same way… we tend to think it can be simply forked and continued on, but it’s a software too complex for some smaller group to maintain.

I’d love to see the bibliography from that elective

Being installable directly from fdroid was what made me use it.
- Comment on What I learned from 3 years of running Windows 11 on “unsupported” PCs 5 months ago:
Quite funny how that’s true for the software side, but on the hardware side, geeky people (especially on the foss side) are the ones running things until they accumulate failures to a point that no workarounds will do any good anymore.

All those numbers will happen at the same time, at different proportions.
- Comment on Syncthing Android app discontinued 5 months ago:
You’re right, and if we think about it, companies are well aware of that, and that’s why they don’t care for offering anything beyond the basic and walled experience, because we will buy anyway.
- Comment on Syncthing Android app discontinued 5 months ago:
You will lose interest in the market, but will keep buying? Did I misunderstand something?

This is the first time that I see this meme and I’m on the friend group B side, now I know how it feels.

According to the site, home routers and dvrs were part of the devices used. Looks like manufacturers abandoning devices without updates is becoming more and more of an issue.
