I wouldn't go that far. The maga Republicans are obviously so easily manipulated without a shred of critical thought left that they will do whatever their overlords want of them.

Ever since the API snafu i get so many strange errors and timeouts. It's service quality has been heavily degraded.

Can this fucker ever say anything that actually means what he says. I swear to fuck, every fucking thing out of this asses mouth is something that can be taken however he wants it. I understand WHY he does it that way but fuck am I tired of it. Its been barely two months. Holy fuck.

Welcome! I came over during the api shutdown, I mained lemmy for a year, waffled back and forth the last few months. Reddit is such garbage, I dont even recognize it anymore. Its just those few niche subs that got me back but its not worth it.

It sucks that this is where we are. America once the defeaters of Nazi's. Now appointing billionare Nazi's with influence to government positions. Fuck man.

I think you answered your own question.

Linux definitely requires the time/energy to keep things playing smoothly,

Windows, overall just has less time/energy to keep things playing smoothly. Running a good debloat helps some. Honestly, what through me over the edge was with poe2, on linux it just stuttered and lagged. I even went from POP_OS to Fedora, same issues. Came over to windows and it runs nice and smooth. Its just I've went through situations like that enough to say thats enough... I can't keep doing this.

Yep, its just a numbers game. We don't have enough for all the niche communities but we have a lot of major ones already here which is nice and I like the more tech centric feeling lemmy has too.

I dont even recognize it anymore. I was on reddit for over a decade before the api fiasco. I am there for a few subs that just dont exist here and I cannot stand reddit. The only way I can even stand it for my few subs is with a Revanced Patched app that removes the ads.

Thanks for that, that does help put things in perspective. However, I am not pleased to see proton taking political stances at all. Money corrupts and it seems they are following whats best in their interests that doesn't always reflect the users (ours) so. This is a space I'm gonna have to follow. The minute they start doing any sort of data sharing, data "personalization", ad integration, etc. That's when I'll be moving.

Very disappointing though. I just want google like services but without the spying on me by me paying.

I have used linux for about two years for gaming and it works for well most games but there is always a game that doesn't work right too, not to dissuade you from giving it a try. Just want to tell you my experience. I'd say 95% of games I've tried work in a basic sense. But sometimes a certain game just runs like crap or I have to fiddle getting a game to work with using lutris . Some games just can't work because of anti-cheat services. Etc... I've tried various OS and really enjoy POP_OS as well as good ole fedora. So, dual boot is recommended if you can do it. Ultimately, I've sadly moved back to windows just because I got tired of always having to troubleshoot stuff to the point of not wanting my computer to be a hobby. I love linux and want it to be my only OS but for me its just not quite there for no fuss gaming setup. I'm a parent and dont want my fleeting moments of free time to be troubleshooting while something isn't working.
