Microsoft is so confident in its desktop marketshare that they allow themselves to push the overton window on what users will tolerate.
The only competitor they can lose users to is Apple. And even then not everyone can afford an Apple computer, especially in the rest of the world
Keep on the good work. Those who advocate for defederation want echo chamber silos, this weakens the promise of Activitypub.
LineageOS kinda dead these last years they only do pixel phones. While the hoards of people using android are buying Samsung’s and Xioami’s budget phones
Edit: after reading the comments. I checked again and was surprised they have updated the list with newer models they weren’t on the list a few months ago
We need help communities on Lemmy. That’s what is going to make it rank in SEO and fly. Communities like software help (office, adobe creative products, etc), financial help and advice. And ask docs communities.
Memes won’t help SEO rank.
Aren’t apps on android hermetically sealed from other apps and malware. How could this be achieved ?
This makes sense as there still billions of other potential users around the world. Add to that the fact that other nations like content of their own cultures in their own languages. It means even if they will feel the change the platform won’t collapse because it is missing US users. Now If other countries follow in the US footsteps then it becomes a different story.
Linux Mint is king. The rest are imposters 🤪
With about a thousand new daily sign ups to mastodon it feels like it is going back to its rapid degrowth that it has been on before the Twitter debacle.
Some teachers deserve all the good in the world.
I know I shouldn’t dunk on free software. But I have never been frustrated by a software before like I was with blender. Everything seems half developed. And I always need hacks I never knew I needed to complete the smallest of projects. Modeling tools are half finished.
Like try to snap the knife tool to the midpoint of an edge? no luck. Try to constrain the knife direction to one of the vertex directions ? No luck. Try to make the curve profile width consistent in 3d? no luck . do proper precision modeling ? Impossible . snapping in unreliable half of the time. and on and on and on .
I am very grateful for the free software and the devs hard work. I bet trying to make blender do many things at once keeps it in a state with many unfinished tools .
They are in it for the money, not for combating climate change.
Could you imagine this is what we are training AI with !
I bet they can scrape Lemmy content for free then. There are no legal mechanisms to prevent them from doing so.
I know. I was talking about making it default. As many newcomers won’t know about it’s existence first hand, and give up on it
Yes some call it tabbed menu. Others call it ribbon menu. It should be the default as many users nowadays are used to this UX paradigm
Why libre office hasn’t adopted the tabbed many bar yet is beyond me ! They are probably not gonna be sued by Microsoft. It is just a huge ux improvement and would ease the friction for new comers especially that everyone is used to using tabbed bar on every other software.
It is because of google’s SEO algorithms. Old content has been around far more to rank up higher. And because people only click on first results. Newer content can’t rank against websites with more authority. Sometimes changing the date filter helps.
There used to be a time when game devs wrote their masterpieces using assembly. Now it’s all crap Unreal Engine
OEM have no incentive to ship Linux in their laptops. Plus they get discounts from Microsoft for using windows. So that’s not gonna happen
