It's like how kids throw meaningless insults when throwing a tantrum because they know they can't win in a proper argument.

They are fiscally conservative... but only for any government programs that aren't tax cuts for the rich.
I have heard good things about Nix on Gentoo. I like both distros equally, I just have a difficult time deciding which to use as the main system and which to put on a VM so that I can finally stop distrohopping.
My parents used to fearmonger the everliving shit about LGBTQ+ and abortion, and as a small kid I ate that shit up. But then at some point, my brain probably developed some modicum of critical thinking and thought, wait a minute, why in the world does it matter to me what people do with their own lives, if it doesn't even affect me or anyone else for that matter? Why are my parents, along with every single bigot, incorrectly think that they are entitled to weigh in on someone else's life decisions?
Every single argument from them boils down to "because religion", but as someone who was raised Catholic (agnostic now), one of the things that they taught me was quite literally to "love thy neighbour" and to not shit on people only because of their beliefs. So why are the very same people who taught me that now doing the opposite of what they preach, trying (and fortunately failing) to shit on other people just because they don't have the same beliefs? "My religion says it's not OK," well they don't believe in the same things you do and could not give less of a shit about what you believe, so why not just leave them alone and let them live their life? It was around that point that I realised they were just hypocrites, and absolutely nothing more.
Fuck NIMBYs, really
In my opinion, I don't like the idea of hosting the sublemmy on the lemmy.ml instance because in the end, you'll be under that instance's rules, and I've heard not-so-great things about them. I don't know why the instance owners would want to interfere with something like unixporn, but the idea that they could if they wanted to doesn't sit right with me.
Well nixpkgs and NUR should be big enough, and you can just quite literally use Nix to grab stuff from Github anyways.
For anyone wondering, turns out you just have to follow the quickstart guide exactly, no added steps necessary. It's quite impressive.
IIRC something along the lines of it not having proper site isolation, making it less secure.
Iirc isn't it more like Brave is better out of the box, but given sufficient configuration, both are more or less equal?
Still waiting for Firefox Android to be secure enough for me to ditch Brave.
I don't mind their different beliefs, what matters is the fact that they try to force it on everyone else. You think being gay is bad? Then don't be gay yourseld. You think getting an abortion is bad? Then don't get an abortion. But the moment you try to force that on anyone else is the moment you're inviting the world to shit on you. After all, no one is passing laws to discriminate against straight cis people, or forcing everyone to get an abortion.
