Seems more than reasonable. In every case like this, I try to ask if I was in their shoes and I had that level of responsibility, what would I do?

I think anyone minded to check our piracy content knows where to find it and can register to one of those instances. This allows lemmy.world to remain a general purpose open instance for people migrating who don't yet know what they are after.

This could actually be an incentive for people to move away from world and that gives a little more space for people to move across and dip their toes in the lemmy ocean.

May I ask what motivated you to write extensively on a service you do not use?

How did you hear about them, and why did you feel the need to document this so extensively?

Is it just me that keeps seeing questions about Skiff that look more like adverts?

It... doesn't feel... organic.

[–] CrypticCoffee@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

It will because websites will not drop support for 20% of users, they might if it is 3%. This is how product owners make decisions on browser support.

You suggest it us a bandwagon because many don't like Manjaro and multiple people raised issues. You're guilty of using your anecdotal evidence to rule out the anecdotal evidence of many.

I don't know the exact cause of my issue, I want to use my PC to do actual work. I did some research, reverted through time machine andd tried again in a slightly different way to rule out graphics card driver. It still failed. I want reliability and don't want to become an expert sysadmin. I specifically don't use Arch, or Gentoo for this reason. I dont have to be a chef to enjoy food. Manjaro claims to do more testing. The issues I faced on PinePhone did not happen on the arch version, it was specific to Manjaro. Kubuntu just worked and never broke after. Mint had been working for years. Manjaro is the only distro I have faced issues with. Maybe it was Arch, maybe it was Manjaro. It is irrelevant. I don't use either. Manjaro's reputation is well earnt and non of your shilling us going to counteract the catalog of failures that are widely documented and hard to ignore.

There’s a lot of Manjaro hate from people who’ve never actually used it as their daily driver and are just parroting what other people online are saying.

You first insinuate people who bash it, don't use it, I've made it clear I did with clear examples. Now it's on to blaming the user or expecting users to invest hours and hours to troubleshoot borked installs. Breaking software isn't, and shouldn't be the norm. I've never had it with Mint or Kubuntu, and before you throw a point about it being rolling distros are more up to date, I've been using OpenSuse Tumbleweed for over a year without issue. It hasn't borked once. Failure rate on Manjaro is higher and when you dig into how they operate, there are clear reasons why.

It seems you were very lucky in your Manjaro days, and now because you somehow avoided getting run over crossing the motorway blindfolded, you think everyone's experience is like yours.

There isn't a hate bandwagon, and you don't need to defend their honour. They are not a sports team you cheer on. They are a software project, and need to improve. You defending poor work just enables it.

The fact you raised points, they were disputed and you moved on to separate points to fit in with the theme of "Manjaro good", you're coming across as a Manjaro shill.

Absolutely not. Germany has very strict resale licencing on their exports. Countries cannot sell them without Germany's permission, and they dragged their feet until finally agreeing.

"Only 10 of the 110 promised Leopard 1 tanks have been delivered so far, the report says."

"Ukraine is also yet to receive any of the four promised IRIS-T missile defense systems or the 20 Marder armored vehicles, while roughly just 850 of the 26,350 155 mm artillery shells promised have been delivered.

The package also included several hundred drones, air surveillance radars, tankers, ambulances, and heavy-duty articulated lorries.

Die Welt noted that it was possible that the weapons commitment may be "withdrawn," citing the example of 5,032 anti-tank handguns that had been listed as being prepared to be sent to Ukraine since the early months of the war, which have now disappeared off the site without any explanation.

It is not clear why Germany is dragging its feet over sending the weapons, although it was also slow to provide Ukraine with military aid at the beginning of the war. Despite that, it has since become one of Kyiv's biggest arms suppliers."

So, everything I said was a lie.. I said 64 years, which is clearly an exaggeration. I thought that much was obvious. The delay in sending tanks is indicated above. Do you want to tell me which parts are factually incorrect or how promised arms have been actually delivered in a prompt fashion?

How so? I've been using since the API blackout and not seen any content from either instance.

It sucks, but it is the only phone that supports unlocking and relocking if the boot loader which gives ability to protect OS from tampering.

I hate google, but needed to be free from spying asap. You could buy second hand and avoid giving them a penny.

No, he's handing over and has stepped down.

64 years into the war and Germany eventually send some of the promised tanks....

[–] CrypticCoffee@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I got a Pixel 6a when the 7 was out. It was £299 and worth every penny. Installed GrapheneOS. I have privacy and also other google apps can run sandboxes when I need them.
