I don't get you US americans with your political stuff, your terminology seems to be all over the place. Today democrats are libertarian, next day it's the republicans. This is literally authoritarianism at play by definition, their liberties are taken away. And where does the evil left come from, that state seems to be run by Republicans, i.e. extreme rightwing.

I mean, ever since your election the whole world knows your politics is broken beyond repair, but this is still bloody confusing to read.

The Element Matrix client in a nutshell.

Only five missing dependencies, ten configuration mistakes and three compiler errors to go.

It's a US "non-profit". One that demands 19$ per article which they merely provide as aggregator, they don't own shit.

Utterly absurd.

This. I wholeheartedly concur that corporate "social" media is fucking shit up like hell, however as long as people are socially stuck there they will be around, as as long as that is the case people who need to make a living will have to roll out stuff and communicate with people there.

In fact this is specifically the kind of tool a friend and me looked for but couldn't find as FOSS until now, although we'd definitely need support for the Mastodon API / Lemmy.

One may argue which platforms to choose (depending on what you want to show people or who you want to reach). But completely abandoning garbage platforms ain't possible right now, especially for small businesses who need to be seen somewhere.

Celebrating selfishness and deception is just that, no matter how warped the perception of a theoretical majority of people might be. Perpetuating such nonsense will only cause more harm in the future. It's not a sign of good behaviour or even mental health to be well adapted to a broken system.

So yeah, not "smart". Disgusting.

Wow. So every theatre show of classics like Romeo & Juliet is a degraded experience. I'm not sure Nintendo bosses understand what "art" is.

This is part of Googles strategy. Ever since the Chromium engine took off enough and everyone else fell behind they began introducing more and more changes that merely benefits them, with less public debate or proper communication (or even adherence to common standards). Last thing I remember, aside of manifest v3, was them killing off JPEG XL as it was a competitor to webp and webm (which they control). JPEG XL was actively worked on and would've probably turned out better before they killed it without any previous notice.

Given Googles dominant market position, their influence and everyone wanting to cut corners wherever possible sometimes Firefox support is just ignored.

tl;dr It's not Firefox' fault. It's Google's sabotage.

I'd like to see memes that are embracing the left but with a clear cut against authoritarianism. This one is too ambiguous.
