  • I agree, but most businesses will probably still stick with whatever Windows version fits their IT environment best. I like running Linux distro’s but most companies i would argue just want to offer Windows because (1: People in the company know something about how it works and switching to anything else will be difficult and (2: Windows works pretty well in an AD and Entra ID environment, especially if there is any On-prem Windows or Azure hosted infra involved.

    So for individuals i can really see this being a good reason to switch to a popular distro and maybe for specific companies with some knowledge, or if they were to only use SaaS web apps. But most of them, will not change how they operate because of privacy concerns or subscription costs. Windows is not going anywhere, any time soon. But yeah, if you care enough i would recommend running at least a distro in dual boot. Not sure if enough people actually care to make it more common though.







  • I kinda like looking at Lemmy as a sort of Internet Pub on steroids (Activity Pub). Kind of like a busy street with all kinds of pubs, libraries, bookstores etc. But where those places have something to sell like liquor, coffee or books, Lemmy does not really have anything to sell but just offers a place of conversation. It alsof isn’t for everyone, anybody can join but each pub had their own rules.

    I see a Lemmy admin like a barkeeper of one of the many pubs around. We sit in this one pub with one owner but we meet a lot of people from other pubs around. And if we like, we can walk across the street and visit somewhere else or even move there permanently. We have options, we as users have more power and especially actual alternatives to go to.

    Donating is a thing to help the pubs keep existing. Like tipping the waiter. I’m a big fan of OpenCollective and Patreon for how they allow these small groups of people to take back parts of the internet for themselves!

    There is no need to commercialize this space, it’s largely for conversation. Here there is no need for the waiter tot eastdrop on conversations, to make the pub all smart or to guilt you into a VIP pass tot enter.

    I really hope we can find a way to tip the waiters and barkeepers incidentally like we would in a pub. Like a donation, and maybe also a more prominent place like a tip jar for the instance visible in posts or just the website. I think we can make it work, if we really try.

    Yeah the big pubs might come knocking, but its up to each of us to decide if we want to visit any of their places.

    De Albert Heijn gaat voor mij sterk boven de Jumbo. De app werkt top en is net zoals de website goed ontworpen. In essentie kan je alles wat echt van belang is met gemak vinden. Verder vind ik de winkel ervaring bij de Appie ook zeer betrouwbaar. In het bijzonder ben ik erg fan van de zelfscan kassa’s en de integratie met de Bonuskaart. Het voelt gewoon lekker seamless allemaal.

    De Jumbo doet het ook best aardig, maar waar ik de AH echt A grade vind met z’n apps en winkel opzet, neig ik bij Jumbo toch vaak tot een B gevoel. Qua aanbod vind ik de Jumbo nog weleens beter, al hangt dat uiteraard van de vestiging af en de integratie met HEMA is best handig.

    Edit: De AH is niet erg goedkoop, daar is de Jumbo hier en daar beter in. Helaas zijn boodschappen in het algemeen erg prijzig geworden.
