That's my point. If he used a copyrighted/copylefted font, he might be in trouble. But he doesn't get in trouble just for using an unicode character.

That's a font/design issue, not a character issue. If that were the case, then no one could use letters (or unicode characters) for their logo.
But that's the thing, it's not dumb it down, it's better design for average user. Linux is not going get to mass adoption if fresh from install you have to run several commands to make your audio/game/camera work. Sure, it might be fixable with a single command, but your average user won't know which, and won't know how to search for it on Google.
Linux based OS like android got mass adopted because you don't even need to open a shell once and your whole hardware works out of the shelf. That's not the experience with Linux.
I'll do it for free if all expenses are paid for me to go to the Olympics. I look like a fool every day, one more day won't make a difference.
I was also on your boat, until I read this... Take into account this was published before Threads was official. https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html
And believe it or not, part of this is because people don't like to pick up the weird looking tomato, or the banana with a few peckles.
Mine was also mandrake in the early 2000's. There was no Ubuntu back then, and Mandrake was the "home desktop" for Linux, specially if you didn't need servers running. I think it worked fine, not sure why it got so much hate.
Jesus, in which type of company do you work where you expect your colleagues do that kind of thing. Really sad to live that defensive.
Even if the same number of cars are on the road, it is likely that the bottleneck is somewhere else in the city, so adding 20 lanes won't help the issue anyway.
This like complaining the bathroom is clogged and your solution is to make the showerhead bigger.
9gag... That's a word I haven't seen in a long time.
Reddit will stay, heck Digg if still around. It won't be the same though.
They can't identify particular and specific interests, but they definitely can predict trends on consumer behaviour. I don't think Google wants your data to predict when you will want Thai. That's preposterous.
They are reaping billions on ad revenue, it definitely works, it won't forever, but it does at the moment.
I'll take a horrible billionaire investing in malaria research over a manchild billionaire obsessed with naming everything X.
