As an American: What the fuck?
I haven't switched. Not fully. Gaming is still far better on Windows. Yeah I have a steam deck amd the games that are supported run amazingly.
Anyway, I switched because as a software dev, Linux is such a better development enviroment. Getting a working C/C++ compiler working on windows without using VS is a huge pain, but most linux distros come with GCC preinstalled. Need to do Java? Just a command away.Rust? Ruby? Python? Same deal.
Well, more devs that have to sit down and figure out how the code works and then document it for future new devs
Alice on there is also on "Well there's your problem" a podcast about engineering disasters.
Yeah, that's a problem with a lot of FOSS passion projects. We devs kinda like writting code, but not really documenting it. Hopefully with the influx of devs helping that will improve
I mean Ford did under threat of his wife leaving him. He literally had henchmen beating up union organizers.
Hi OP, unfortunately this content is for Intentionally bad UI/UX. I think this may belong in !softwaregore@lemmy.world instead.
Microsoft has been doing a lot of layoffs recently, why is her son still employed?
Last article I found said they laid off less than 1% of theor staff. It would be weird if he was layed off.
Yeah I've heard from web devs that theor "hello world" for a new framework is just the twitter UI. Twitter isn't special Musk, a lot of people just use it to keep up with bands, news, or whatever interests they have.
If you use the aurora store it will tell you what apps require google services. My banking app works perfectly fine though I've heard others don't so your milage may vary. Calyx came preinstalled with an email app which works fine, though f-droid has dozens of foss alternatives. Calyx also came preinstalled with chromium though I switched to fennec (firefox). I believe whatsapp works though I don't have it installed nor will I.
Not the person you asked, but I run Calyx. It has microG services to impersonate google services. It works most of the time, but I have found a few apps that straight up don't work since microG isn't 100% viable yet.
I still have my reddit account, only to malicously mod one community and update a secret community about a move to lemmy, but I only use reddit now to do a quick check in on those subs and then a glace at the front page.
Anyway, i saw the reddit post and a bunch of people were livid and said they were doing chargebacks now. I informed them that chargebacks cost reddit more money than they initally spent (spend $5 they have to return the $5 and pay a $20 fee), and if tok many users do a chargeback then credit card companies would stop paying them wink.
EDIT: in response to telling people that it would hurt reddit finacially I got a 2 gold and 2 platnium awards which i hope were paid for with chargebacked credits.
