Driver issues usually only happen if the manufacturer doesn’t provide a Linux driver. Usually it is best to do some research to ensure the hardware will work before purchasing. Otherwise, the driver usually is included with the kernel so it is plug and play even for things that require manually downloading and installing on the Windows side.

Also, I’m not trying to get on any high horse. I personally think Linux is a great alternative to Windows and would love for everyone to at least try it out and see if it is right for them. It could save them tons of headaches and open the door to a new skill set, or just to breathe new life into that old laptop in your closet gathering dust. Linux has a lot of great uses that aren’t possible with Windows. Give peas a chance.

It’s a boil the frog scenario. Windows users will always cope with more and more shit thrown at them.

Yes.

Or we can just enjoy mastodon and Lemmy for what it is worth. You don’t want it to become mainstream, you just want things to be more federated in general.

How did email and RSS (podcasts) become so derederated but nothing else?

The tree one… Hands down

But then how will we enjoy having debates if we all shut up and actually solve problems?

It makes it legal for doctors to perform abortions. I would think free market will dictate who will offer abortions pretty quickly. Doctors gotta get that bag.

Oh, I get it! I get jokes!

I still don’t get it.

But I don’t want to die!

Oh that’s fun. It is weird how trigger happy defederation is. Like is banning users or communities not a thing?

Sorry I need some context. What is back?

You are the only one. All I see is water bottles.

Is there not an option for blocking just that problem community or user?

Oh no… Anyway

I thought that was always a thing…

Wait, what is this new feature YouTube is doing?

Ooo, thank you. I’ve been using bird.makeup to help ease the transition away from twitter to mastodon. This will help me do the same for lemmy.
