I work with WordPress professionally and honestly I really do enjoy the platform, there’s a lot of it that’s very good. Having said that, none of my personal projects are on WordPress. Most of them are on Hugo and soon a lot of them will be on 11ty.

For the most part, that’s literally no different than just running Debian with KDE. Not sure about beginner friendly, but incredibly awesome.

Do yourself a favor, do Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE). It’s got all the slickness of Mint, but the core is based on Debian instead of Ubuntu.

Seems pretty obvious it’s not related to Musk or X. However, it’s just another proprietary social network. We are all familiar with the pattern now. Proprietary network and investors eventually means enshitification.

Possibly the 1st too. Code is protected speech.

Last I heard that’s close to 50% of the consumers.

For the majority of people a 1080p60 with a high bitrate and 10+ bit color space will look absolutely perfect. Some can pixel peep and tell, but more people still struggle seeing when the aspect ratio is wrong on their TV.

Check his hard drives.

That’s fucking metal.

An overly compressed 4k stream will look far worse than a good quality 1080p. We keep upping the resolution without getting newer codecs and not adjusting the bitrate.

I’m starting to think these for-profit companies only care about making money.

Had to leave Twitter when it became a Nazi site, I can leave TikTok to I guess.

Just ran am update for ytdlp and it’s working again.

I don’t make phone calls and rarely use SMS. All the features I need/want from a phone would be missing.

Maybe I’m in the minority here, but I genuinely love my phone. It makes my life better.

I recently started using VisiData and it’s amazing.

Risky talking down to developers. Does the CEO not know that Git is like REALLY easy to move?!

Who could have guessed this very obvious a most expected outcome?! Not Spotify, I guess.

Gopher is cool, but none of my friends will install a gopher browser.

Help me understand how this is Open Source? Perhaps I’m missing something, but this is Source Available.

I’m a YouTube creator, part of the partner program, and I also manually upload to TILvids. The videos I make generate about $100-$300 a year through the partner program, so I’m not a professional by any means. It feels like they’re trying to keep creators from leaving by putting up small roadblocks that limit our reach beyond the platform. Given PeerTube’s non-profit model, I see it as a potential future for content sharing. Though there are a few rock stars on YouTube, most of the creators on that platform make little to no money from publishing videos. There are more people like me than Linus Media Group.
