I don’t know why you’re being downvoted but that’s a legitimate reason. Unfortunately, Microsoft Office has a total monopoly of the office market so incompatibilities are bound to happen with alternative Office software.

Onlyoffice is not sufficient for you?

I’m running Manjaro since 2022 and it has been running smoothly. I guess I’m foolish…

Think of Reddit as Cyberpunk or Mirror’s Edge: a world controlled by corporations instead of governments. A corporation only seeks its own interests and those of its shareholders. In that world, you’re nothing. There’s no transparency, and you don’t have any rights.

Lemmy instances on the other hand are run by the community and funded by donations. As such, the interests of the group as a whole prevail; they are not the interests of shareholders. To maintain cohesion, transparency is necessary, hence the modlog. Without transparency, cohesion and community cannot be maintained.

Reddit and Lemmy are two completely different worlds.

Why is this upvoted? It an ad for a company.

There could be multiple factors. For example, I have a Nextcloud instance that is fully managed by Hetzner, and I didn’t bother to find out what database it uses…

OnlyFans’ purpose is to make money from your actions. The Fediverse is the antithesis of that. It’s run by donations, not corporations. Therefore, it will not exist.

We cannot forget that 3dfx went under when they bought STB to manufacture their own video cards instead of letting their board partners do it.

3dfx had market dominance in 90s but then basically committed suicide.

Very true. They committed suicide when they bought STB so that they could manufacture their own video cards. They didn’t just focus on chip R&D, they needed to manufacture and market their own video cards instead of letting board partners do it.

Nice! I installed Linux Mint on my father’s computer and I haven’t been tech support since. It’s been quiet days compared to when he was using Windows.

The Fediverse is the way. In this Financialised capitalism, capitalist platforms will continue to be enshitified as they only tend to shareholders interests of continual growth. They do not care about humans.

We need to keep this momentum going.

I agree. It’s ChatGPT style, I hate it.

The problem will be to convince your friends and family to use Signal, and that’s really not obvious.

Capitalism at its finest. As alcohol is going out of fashion, people invent new product categories to profit from, and gullible people are brainwashed by marketing to embark on this trend.

I’ve been building computers since 1999, and I’ve noticed that the industry is cyclical. I’ve purchased CPUs from both Intel and AMD. We need Intel to succeed, otherwise AMD will dominate the x86 processor market.
