I want Linux to succeed, and be the competition to Windows, so I deal with these “downsides” honestly, the limits in my theory, cause me to only purchase good hardware and software.
Is the mainstream even what should be targeted? I’m reading comments on how people are actually getting worse at using computers.
This is unfortunate, I like my privacy, I’ve also been hearing about server side ads. On grayjay, I haven’t needed to sign in.
I’m on a different instance, I think that let’s me see all of the Internet’s sides.
They took down the fucking don’t be evil sign! Google used to be a good company but I don’t trust their actions. I’ve only found out about the spyware level chrome browser, not to mention that Google has been coloring my searches on the internet.
But what do I expect from a ADVERTISING company first and for most?
Don’t authenticate to a search engine.
Haha, yes I’m an eggplant, thank you BTW, I enjoy seeing you posting! I think you were a reason I stick around lemmy.
My lifespan is shorter than 30 years so yes.
My last straw was the privacy and lack of control.
I didn’t like software being released by Microsoft telling me my choices were bad or unoptimal, I like my software, I made my choices from listening to others and forming my own opinion. I had a shift in thinking recently, I wanted to start selecting my software based on my values rather than just choosing whatever works.
I do lean to having privacy and freedom to do whatever with my tools as “good” things
I’m gonna miss vimms lair, never told a soul about it. And I’d help but my internet is terrible rural internet.
I never even thought that automating a browser would be a thing!
Stick too long, make shorter
Linux adoption would probably take hold if it was advertised, but it’s not the thing the linux community wants from what I’ve heard and I don’t think our voices are useless, especially with the Sony incident
Looking at others eyes overloads me, too much info. So I just look at the mouth instead, helps me understand their words more.
I’m a little biased right now.
