I shamelessly use Linux Mint with Cinnamon pre-installed. I imagine my experience is closer to the classic Windows experience than Windows 11 right now lol.

Same tbh

Think of all the man hours wasted on features specifically asked for by users and clients, only to never be used…

It’d be that utopia meme if only users knew what they wanted lol

I honestly don’t understand. Reddit hasn’t ever treated their mods well and will never pay them. I only see upside to going down with the ship lol

Pinterest has around the same amount of MAUs as Reddit with $2.8b revenue…

I don’t think killing 3p apps and eventually old reddit is gonna make the difference.

You can “vote” against Reddit by not using it ;)

Some of y’all getting angry need to look at yourself in the mirror. The whole point of federation was to allow communities to do things like this if they want.

A lot of new people are going to see this mudslinging and rightfully turn around. Nobody is coming to Lemmy to see drama between instances.

Isn’t the whole point of the fediverse that you get to create and craft your experience for your community? There’s a really good reason defederating is a feature. I don’t get it, Beehaw decides to use the features of federation so now we: firstly become tribalistic (them vs us), and secondly decide to get angry? Like it or not, this is what you signed up for when you wanted federation.

I don’t see the point of getting angry like this, and really don’t see how this negativity being conducive to a thriving community. Some new people are going to explore fediverse, see tribalistic mudslinging among instances, and say “not for me.”

I’d say respect their decision and move on, if it’s not for you it’s not for you.

I like how you’re not using Arch yet, but you’re getting a head start on letting everyone know you (are about to) use Arch.
