About me Nathan Campos
I won’t lie, if you look at my Reddit profile you’ll see that I’ve commented more here in the last couple of days than probably the last 3 years on Reddit. The community just feels more welcome and I feel as if my comment will get read instead of being drowned out as it happens on Reddit.
I would really love to see more “RPi priced” (around $30) RISC-V SBCs. It’s hard to justify paying $60 to get into an ecosystem that has very little support.
For most of the users currently online it’s extremely difficult to understand the concept of federation and how everything works, so I doubt it’ll ever be as prevalent as “the big social media platforms”, but for technically-inclined users, it’ll definitely have at least moderate success.
Saldy it’s very common to have this influx towards the “main server” as people that are not used to the federated aspect come to the platform.
Either way, it would be interesting to collect this information and later post some metrics about the exodus from Reddit, kind of like how Fosstodon and other Mastodon instances did when Twitter had their issues.
Gnome Terminal when I’m in GNOME, Konsole when I’m in KDE, and plain old xterm for i3 and any other WM. These just feel like they fit just right into their respective DE/WM.
