  • I knew this wasn't going to be a popular post. But it's a very valid concern. This instance is the largest and most popular one (I think?) and having heard those claims, I really want to make sure.

    This is something that's really important to me.

  • Name one more thing the CEO said or did, or that the company Proton said or did after that, that equals what any of the big GAFAM did.

    Finance the elections of a fascist that's destroying democracy? Manipulating people's opinion through their control of near totality of today's most consimed media? Provide financing and tools to genociding nations? Sell your private information for profit? Provide all your personal information to governments without consent or without warrants for no reason? Underpay their employees? Literally hoarding all the world's fortune?

    Go ahead.

    I'm sure that one comment on social media had a HUUUGE impact on the world and probably helped elect a despot and enabled rogue terrorist nations to commit genocides.

  • Fucking hell, let it go. God damn. It's the ONLY time he said something stupid.

  • So? Did he go off and finance Trump's elections? Or finance any other fascists for that matter? Does he sell your data or does he respect your privacy? Did him or the company do any of the things that Amazon, Google, Apple, Facebook, etc have done?

    The answer is no.

    The CEO made a dumb comment about one of Trump's picks for a role at one point. That's it. Big fucking whoop.

    This is the problem with some of the folks out there. Some of y'all are asking someone or something to be absolutely 100% perfect and pure. You'd rather see something that has any potential of actually becoming something good and a real alternative and a competition to the big fascist eites out there die because of some small detail than pushing for its success despite it's few flaws. Just like the Americans with the last presidential elections, who decided to snub Kamala Harris because she wasn't elected in a democratic primary election, and instead let a blatantly fascsistic, opressive dictator fuck up their democracy to send the Democrats a message.

    Until Proton becomes the next bad guy, I'm sticking with them because they're the only real alternative to what Google offers: an all in one package that's incredibly convenient.

  • It's not that bad

  • People didn't want Kamala because she wasn't democratically elected as the leader of the party in a primary so they let full blown fascism take over instead. They felt it was more important to send the Democrats a message instead of actually keeping some minimal form of democracy and freedom. 🙄

    So they'll probably not vote for AOC if she becomes leader of the Democratic party anyway because of some minor excuse, like how she supported Israel's right to exist, or something. And the US will end up with a third Trump mandate.

    I hope the US will prove me wrong. My hope in Americans doing the right thing is pretty low.

  • Same shit, different color logo.

  • Krita vs Gimp. Which is better in your opinion, and why?

  • It's like... just so pointlessly cruel. It really makes me wonder what the fuck I'm even doing in such an evil world. Seriously. I don't know what to say.

  • This font????? Why??? 

  • Dang, they were still on MATE?

  • Mint is the OS of choice for beginners. It's hassle free and it just works. Ubuntu is good, but its snap package got a bad rap when it was launched. It's not that bad. But it gets confusing since you end up with 3 different software packaging systems. (Apt with .deb files, Flatpak and Snap)

    Personally I use Kubuntu, the KDE Plasma desktop version because it's so much more like Windows and has many more features. I don't mind the Snap packages, but I avoid them if I can if I can use Flatpak instead. Snap and Flatpak are essentially the same thing: it installs and runs software in a sandboxed environment which makes it safer to use.

  • Great. As if I needed that to worry about over everything else.

    And my boss wonders what's up with my absenteeism at work. I just want to live and squeeze the tiniest bit of pleasure out of life before it's too late.

  • How else are they going to hire people? Most guys that want to sign up are all tatted with these symbols.

  • Absolutely! A lot of an country's or region's culture and history is reflected in their language. In their expressions, vocabulary, loan words, etc.

  • There's a plasma mobile, so maybe QT?

  • Ah. That's too bad :(
