What circumstances would that be? I can't see the use case doe this, but I'm open to see how and when that would be needed.
You have xing, but it's big in DACH countries only and its still owned/ruled by a company. Roll up our own website and socialize / network with like minded people on the fediverse instead.
Sorry for the off topic question, but what are the gains / constraints of using an identity / authentication service? Sure, you only are going to need to remember one password/identity. But each webapp must have support for the said protocol, and so does their clients, no? It does seem like a lot of work (and risk exposure) for little gain.
Please enlighten me if I'm missing something.
Only 80%?!? I assume *BSD isn't counted in that number. I really can't see people running windows on their servers...
And to be honest, server stability != display server stability.
They require a lot of tinkering for a half-arsed result. Built in vertical tabs like in Vivaldi or edge work and feel much better with just a single setting.
I didn't quite get into the martian, but project hail Mary... I'm savoring when I have the time and headspace to read it again.
I agree on the discovery being crap on Spotify. I started to listen to the podcast NPR new music Fridays, and get my discovery that way nowadays.
I started using Spotify lite on my phone. And thankfully, there's plenty of alternative clients on desktop (such as ncspot). No crap UI elements, just playlists.
This article is two years old, and perhaps discord have improved their accessibility, since this user find it more accessible then matrix. Yes, it's a single usercase, but worth mentioning nonetheless.
I think there are other arguments against Discord that haven't been mentioned: data privacy. I know there was an instance where Discord collected user without their consent, and that is enough for me to avoid the platform.
I much rather use matrix or the horridly old IRC protocol than Discord. Or forums. Or just plain old issues!
I use fedora for the nice OOTB experience, but if there's issues with parts of the hardware - I try Ubuntu. And if it works, I just install it.
Life's too short to deal with hardware blobs.
