most people who make software probably also don’t want to create support structures they just wanna pick something that already exists and go good enough

you’re being disingenuous with the why not it’s easy it’s cheap you know full well most people won’t self host but you’re refusing to acknowledge that because it’s inconvenient for your hatred of discord that pretends there’s issues that just aren’t there search doesn’t vary depending on server it’s the exact same search feature you just don’t know how to use it or care to learn

got it so you’re being disingenuous on the third party hosting thing most people who are computer literate don’t know how to use irc it’s a near dead technology and that’s the thing with discord you don’t have to hope someone will bother to sign up they’re already signed up most people are whether you like it or not and as for the releaf questions again the search feature on discord is really good you just can’t be bothered to adapt to the new reality I don’t like discord either I wish we could nuke all corporations off the internet entirely I wish that people would switch to matrix entirely but you’ve also gotta be realistic dude

yeah most people aren’t gonna host it themselves accept that reality so you’re just shifting the burden to an even smaller company too they do disappear it happens and to say otherwise is either moronic or willfully disingenuous and noone under the age of 50 knows how to use irc as for the search engine yeah that’s one downside but that’s ignoring the fact most times you search a problem on a search engine you get a support forum with an auto closed issue cause noone responds to it the same with it closed with a response that was just read the documentation or it closed by the user saying “fixed it” and that’s it and knowing what server to start with isn’t the issue you pretend it is you just put a discord button in the app or the settings page if it’s something bigger than an app

anyone that says there’s no history just refuses to learn to use discord discord has a very powerful and easy to use search feature I can find exact conversations from years ago in literally seconds the interface thing is subjective but whether it’s bad or not people know how to use it atleast and the third party could disappear whenever applies to github most forums too this is what I mean by refuse to acknowledge I’ve had fat better experiences with support on discord than any alternative

because as much as old people hate to acknowledge it mailing lists and github (and alternatives) suck they’re terrible for actual conversations to try and coax more info out of the user when they ask for support people aren’t logged into those 24/7 a lot of people are with discord and everyone’s familiar with it and already has an account and knows the UI how many people actually have a github account and know how to use it and will actually ever log back in to give more information if asked vs putting a discord button somewhere someone pops in reports the issue then if there’s not enough info you can @ them and they’ll come back as soon as they see it

cryptofash that hides behind free speech and allows nazis and that to post in the discord and banned a trans person that called out the messages by those users for “inciting arguments” and repeatedly misgendered them then went on about how they’re not bigoted they just believe in free speech and blamed the user and pretending they were the victim and then when people said they should have a code of conduct he said doing that was just a hassle and how it would make it impossible to do lead dev stuff for him to enforce the rules while saying they have rules against that sort of thing anyway so blatant doublespeak where he’s saying he’s moderating and everyone’s lying but also if he had to moderate he’d be too busy to develop

I love cinnamon it's the main reason I use mint I tried debian with mint but the theming was ugly but the cinnamon on mint mmm beautiful I find it very comfortable and familiar like all the good parts of windows 7 just with a tad bit more modern design

people say this and yeah it is kinda true but honestly who just leaves plugs on the floor who is this an issue for the plug is in the wall

dammit it was refusing to send the message so I kept retrying it's never done that to me before

use UK power sockets it's ever more safe

no

finally hated the escapist loved zero punctuation but it's so annoying how it flooded my sub feed with a million videos I didn't care about and never would I literally only watched the solo yahtzee stuff

the we bit clearly implies you don't think anyone should use nvidia gpus on linux but they have over 85% of the market share according to steam hardware surveys so clearly that's a problem with linux if it doesn't work well with nvidia gpus yeah nvidia should be less awful but people say linux "just works" now and yeah sometimes it does and currently even on nvidia it does if you're using xorg works fine for me on cinnamon mint other than the fact I had to figure out how to upgrade the kernel which wasn't super obvious how cause my bluetooth didn't work cause my motherboard was too new but you can't just stick your head in the sand when certain hardware has issues especially popular hardware there's a reason nvidia gpus are so popular as terrible a company as they are and as overpriced as their gpus are amd is constantly behind every new feature they announce on their gpus is just a worse implementation of what nvidias had for a year or 2 I wish amd was good I hate nvidia but if you wanna play the latest games with the best graphics amd is just no good unfortunately

"just buy a whole new gpu 4head" best takes only here

the joke would be funny but that fov of 75 isn’t funny even as a joke genuinely nauseating even seeing the number in text let alone actually playing that low 120 is prime

ah haven't tried vr too expensive for me and not enough space really wanna try it in future though alyx and beat saber look really cool hopefully that'll improve soon with all the rumours of valves deckard headset and them dedicating so much to linux I mean deckard will probably still be tethered to a pc so it's not a guarantee since most people will be on windows then but maybe it'll come with improvements to vr on linux

yeah I'm also quite a noob with linux I've only been using it for about a year and also dual boot my pc for the few games I have to for me it's actually bethesda games mostly due to no mod managers on linux and I know there's the workaround for MO2 which is what I use anyway but fomods didn't work :/ I'm also actually playing through hollow knight on my deck at the moment though vanilla and that's been working flawlessly as for curseforge dunno what you're modding but if it's mc I used prism launcher and that worked flawlessly way better than curseforge on even windows with that being full of bloat
