Oh look, the MS steamwreck.
3·12 days agoOnly one who wrote about it was the one who went self-hosted, the rest didn’t talk about it. I would guess it ended up being the final straw, like “why direct people to X to back me instead of just promoting myself where they see me.” Especially if, as you say, the cut was so similar.
7 out of 9, yes, one went to self-hosted, another left in favor of youtube directly, the rest in favor of twitch. The last two I follow on Patreon (Techmoan and My Mate Vince) just sorta rolled past the whole thing.
Too little, too late. I only know 2 creators that I supported who stayed through all this. Most quit patreon when it was announced… this is hardly the worst of the fees they charge people.

I liked the drill attachment ones, I might get one next time. Thanks for checking them out, and the feedback :)
Oh for sure, I am doing them just for the fun of putting more out there. I’m a fan of the genre, I find repairing things to be very punk. Makes me happy to see something broken/useless/damaged/worn become useful and productive again.
Such an awesome editor, I use it regularly to make little repair videos.
LOL exactly :D
Hardly inevitable. I’m broke af, the economy is collapsing, so not spending money on Nintendo is the easiest possible choice. Literally not buying something you don’t need is the easiest form of protest.
I say this to be fair, since I’ve used Debian since almost the very beginning: Debian is a bit more complicated to set up.
I generally find when people ask me for help, they’re either on Ubuntu or on Fedora (in which case I direct them to someone else for help). Sometimes they’re gamers or using something where Debian + tweaks is ideal, but often I just help them configure Debian, or just help them get their Ubuntu where they want it.
I don’t know, this was for a system on kubuntu 24.04, the latest up there. I removed it, replaced it with debian and kde - my friend isn’t a gamer, doesn’t require anything bleeding edge, so that was just a better choice in our opinion.
Only tangentially related - but a friend brought over a new kubuntu install and Canonical had the cheek to demand money for VLC patches? They don’t fing own VLC. What the actual f is going on over there, Canonical?
I just recently de-snapped yet another ubuntu system. Couldn’t agree more. I use debian standard for all of my stuff, and I agree with your ranking.
Not a leftie, but D) Spouse of a citizen should be a citizen. How is this even a fucking question.
0·30 days agoWhat “kickstart”? The fediverse isn’t a commercial venture. If we can connect with our friends and interests, it’s already “working”. I find fantastic new people here all the time, doing really niche stuff I’d never find on a platform focused on appealing to everyone.
If “99%” of people aren’t on it, that’s perfectly acceptable, and just makes it easier for the ones on it to find and talk to their friends. I don’t think we need or want the vast torrent of spammers, downvote bots, and “influencer” types who use whatever gives them clicks.
