I have no sympathy for GAFAM, but Mozilla sucks even more and you can’t convince me otherwise.

I deleted my Amazon account around 2007, when I discovered how they treat their workers. Never looked back. Fuck Amazon.

I don’t know why you’re being downvoted
Because people here can’t get their heads out if their asses. By the way, nobody needs a “legitimate reason” to choose a given software instead of a different one and even less needs to justify their choice to strangers on the internet.

For some reason it slows down to a lot, to the point of being unusable, with many slides full of equations and also crashed on me a couple of times, so no. And I’m pretty sure my OS and hardware are fine. PowerPoint also may suffer a bit but it’s still usable (although it takes many seconds to save a file, in this scenario).

None of these support equations in presentations adequately, for instance, something which is crucial for my job. And LaTeX and beamer are extremely time consuming for presentations (even if LaTeX is perfectly fine for long text/articles).

With due respect, no. Office suites on Linux aren’t on par with MS Office yet (and the latter sucks a lot, but not for the lack of features).

There’s nothing free in this world. You’re paying with your attention and at least metadata, independently on how many blockers you may use.

Thank you, Mr. Obvious. Now you can go back to YT as well.

There’s a “block” button somewhere in Lemmy’s interface, under my profile. Just use it and go back swallowing crappy YT videos.

I literally i watch a YouTube videos, as they are just a waste of time. For a given video on a given topic, the same amount of information can be obtained by a decently written blog or article that can be read in a 1/10 of the time it takes to watch q video filled by nonsense blabbering and sponsored segments for revenues. In some extreme cases, if the topic seems really, really , REALLay interesting, I may ask an LLM to summarize the video for me. People should stop linking YouTube videos altogether.
