Tbh this looks very relaxing, but maybe the grass is greener or somethin'.

Oh whoa, I recognize that name! Didn't know you had a sick setup like this. Awesome stuff.

I know, and maybe it will, my faith is just very low.

I think the comment speaks for itself. There wasn't anything deep behind it. It literally just mean "Linux users look at BSD users how Windows users look at Linux." Bewildered, mystified maybe? It's just lower on the "food chain", and they are surprised to see people using it because it's missing "X" feature they can't live without, for many people that being gaming. I'm in the same camp.

It was not a comment on the quality of the software, as I have never used it. I would love to tinker with it one day to see the differences, but I can't see myself ever switching to it, even if I admire/envy some of the better parts compared to Linux.

Customer support is annoying or whatever but this is horrifying. Several people will die because of this.

BSD is to Linux users what Linux is to Windows users.

I think people speaking on these subjects should genuinely come together to host their content on a Peertube instance and broadcast it to their Youtube audience, because this is a pretty strong use case. To be able to speak freely about these matters and inform people is pretty serious.

This was very interesting! While I don't fully understand everything, based on what I can, I'm partial to the second one. If the the instance disappears, I doubt the hoster wants that stuff up anyway. It makes it easier on everyone, and the replies seem (?) to stay up as well. A win-win. Either way it goes, I can only be thankful to the engineers working so hard to make this a reality. 🙏

Idk. My folders are always decently organized since I've been nutty about since I was a kid, but the specific file structures different services can demand is a headache. This is why I prefer more simplistic services without a database, but there's always trade-offs to be had with both options.

I'm a bit split on it, but I do agree that it can be annoying and when you mess up, services and links you've sent to other people don't work and it can be quite agonizing. It'll probably get better for me as time goes on, but man it can bite at times.

Thank you, this makes sense. Is there any hope for Mastodon and other services to achieve a similar level of parity without eating up a ton of space? I feel like it is a big hurdle for Fedi, but I understand these things take time and a ton of work.

Ehhh nah. As someone who used character.ai before there are many horrible bots that get cleared and the bots have been impossible to have sex with unless you get really creative. The most horrendous ones get removed quite a bit and were consistently reposted. I'm not here to shield a big company or anything, but the "no sex" thing was a huge thing in the community and they always fought with the devs about it.

They're probably trying to hide behind the veil of more normal bots now, but I struggle to imagine how they'd get it to do sexual acts, when some lightly violent RPs I tried to do got censored. It's pretty difficult, and got worse over time. Idk though, I stopped using it a while ago.
