Thank you for answering my question so succinctly haha

More like reporter-assisted AI

You keep repeating that I said “the code is bad”. That’s not what I said. I said it’s slop-coded, which says the code is bad, and is also an explanation of why. It’s like saying “it’s a poop sandwich”. I don’t have to explicitly say that it’s bad, or explain why, that information is obvious from the title. It’s poop.

I’ve pointed out the actual problem several times now. You’re advertising a slop-coded project without disclosure.

The problem is it is slop-coded. Everyone deserves to know that.

Yet another slop code project

Advice: don’t regulate anything

Should’ve been an email

Did you have a question?

I agree, we should ban corporate social media for everyone!

By having an entity in the first place to force to comply.

Adminforge also runs a free public ntfy server: https://ntfy.adminforge.de/

Ah and Signal’s weaknesses rear their ugly heads again.

Everyone has their preferences. That’s why there isn’t one answer. The problem is almost every distro compares themselves to Windows, and so they all have the same “pros” from that perspective. Personally I have 2 recommendations, and I’ll tell you which ones and why:

1. Zorin: Makes a good mesh of familiarity and ease of use. They maintain a database of different apps and will automatically point you to the most appropriate option. They greatly simplify the process of installing and using WINE. I happen to just like GNOME (looks more modern than KDE), and I like their modified version of it. Comes with a lot of what I consider “obvious” tweaks “out of the box” so you don’t have to figure out how to implement them. Their GNOME is also super outdated though, so some extensions don’t work.

2. Bazzite: If you want a console/PC hybrid, this is probably the best way to get it. If you just want a desktop gaming PC you can get that also. Either way it comes with a lot of gaming utilities pre-installed. Best of all is their “Bazzite Portal” which makes a bunch of common apps and tweaks that are otherwise complicated to install, easy, with the click of a button. There’s also an app for updates that upgrades everything all in one place, with the click of a button, and also will run automatically in the background if your system is idle.

But if you need support I hope you’re comfortable using corporate shithole platforms like Github, Discord, and Reddit, because if you don’t want to, they don’t give a shit.

Instagram today is a bloated, algorithmic mess that doesn’t know what it wants to be

It knows what it wants to be. It just doesn’t care what you want it to be. Its’ main goal at this point is to exploit the massive userbase to push more and new shit. Trying to start a new platform for it would undoubtedly be unsuccessful. Just look at Threads. Frankly I’m shocked they didn’t just shove microblogs into IG as well. You see the same thing with every successful platform with sufficient userbase, they just abandon their identity in favor of shoving new and more shit down your throat until it becomes said bloated mess and the experience in general is awful, but they know you won’t leave because there’s no viable alternative that isn’t also doing the same thing.

They did, several times. Reels were only added to IG because Meta wanted to exploit its’ success to push it on their massive userbase to compete with TikTok. Creating a separate platform for it would have made far more sense in a user-focused world.
