Don’t criticize Linux
I know we’ve said it before but THIS year is definitely going to be the year of desktop Linux!
Most people already have several Linux machine in their home. I wouldn’t be surprised that Linux has already thc malority of consumer device.
Just Desktop aren’t but smartphone, routers, and tons of smart shit are Linux based
I’m my house Linux desktops out number window.
My kids haven’t even used Windows, aside from like 5-10 min here and there on my wife’s PC.
Yup. Not counting my two PCs that both run Linux, I have:
- LG Smart TV - webOS is Linux
- Android phone and tablet
- Chromecast - pretty sure it’s Linux
- Steam Deck - SteamOS is Linux
And that’s just the ones I know about. I wouldn’t be surprised if our cars, refrigerator, washing machine, etc all ran Linux inside. In fact, the only devices we have that I know don’t run Linux (and have a real OS) are:
- wife’s iPhone
- wife’s iPad
- wife’s PC - Windows
- my work computer - macOS
- Switch - FreeBSD
But 4/5 of those are still *nix.
Linux needs still needs more THC malority, IMO.
And if you do, you better run!
The points are made up and votes don’t matter.
They matter in that particular post. Other than that, no, they don’t.
Its not reddit by all what that means.
Welcome!
Simultaneously good and bad. IMO, more good than bad.
Every time there’s a vague reference to a car, you need to lose your everloving mind at the pure evil it represents.
is it this?
Hell yeah ill check you out 🙃
Whoops i thought it was the other one lol
Hey, welcome, glad to have you here!
The one difference to keep in mind is that each community (the subreddit equivalent) and each server (the equivalent of a ‘site’ like Reddit) have their own sets of rules and mods. So when you post to a server that’s not your home, just be aware you are subject to those sets of rules in addition to your home server. You should be fine for the most part if you act with empathy and respect, but no need to take it too hard if a mod informs you that you broke a rule.
Lastly, don’t be afraid to post/comment in niche communities with a small amount of activity, but it’s a good idea to do a community search (under “All” filter) to check if a more active community is present on another server.
Have fun, I’ll see you around!
Yeah, that it’s a far left shithole
Then why even bother leaving a comment?
Because I thought he should know going in
I’m not sure about the “far” part.
It used to be quite far left, back when tankies were everywhere. Now it’s pretty tame, though you’ll still run into literal socialists/communists from time to time. It’s about where Reddit was when I left, so par for the course.
I consider myself libertarian, and it’s honestly not bad, and I like ragging on conservatives anyway.
You’re forgetting about hexbear.
I’ll gladly forget about hexbear
99% of the time they’re using so much inside language I have no idea what they’re trying to convey.
Yeah, I’ve also found their comments confusing… I just ignore them now.
At least they’re usually very obvious.
Images that take up far too much screen real estate in every comment tend to do that
You can tell Hexbear is super communist by how much they simp for Putin, an unashamed oligarch who’s so reactionary he gives Desantis wet dreams. The Lemmy instance where horseshoe theory has been hammered into a circle.
That just proves my theory - extreme leftists are not that far from extreme right winged groups.
Yes. The most important thing to know is that when life hands you a Lemmy, make Lemmyonade.
Welcome!
Lemmy instances are in the middle of transitioning to a new version (0.19.x). It’s been a bit bumpy. You might notice some changes once this instance upgrades. We’ve been holding back until we’re confident that the new version is stable.
If you need to contact the admins you can message us directly. Or, for a faster response, get into our instance’s Matrix chat: https://matrix.to/#/#sh.itjust.works:matrix.org
lemm.ee was in a rough spot in the couple weeks after their version update, but they got it figured out and it’s been good since. Maybe this is me being naive but most of the major instances should have that behind them by now I think
You should know there are multiple free clients you can use to view content in Lemmy. Try a few and select one you like. I recommend using one that provides the ability to block specific instances, communities, and users. It will improve your experience and reduce frustrations.
What are some good ones?
Boost is my preference
https://lemmyapps.netlify.app/
Good ones are tagged as “Hot”
Connect does all that (Android) Free, no ads, frequent updates; dev support via buy-me-a-coffee thingy.
Voyager is nice if you used apollo with reddit
Nope.
List of communities you see from your instance is just the ones subscribed to by an existing user. You may still find a niche one and have to be the first to manually subscribe.
As a moderator, we can see your name attached to any reports you make.
Drop in to !newToLemmy@lemmy.ca to say hi or ask questions :)
You can do that at any time

Welcome!
