the issue i remember keep coming up is that there still isn't an actually good matrix client that approximates discord's layout. the basic logic of a community being on a "server" with multiple channels people freely swap between , with maybe some voice channels that are compeltely disconnected from the text channels, still isn't actually implemented because matrix still operates on IRC logic where every single channel is supposed to be a community unto itself. element's spaces feature is a very poor substitute, and withotu that basic killer feature i don't see any mass migration happening anytime soon.

yeah unfortunately it's extremely easy to come to a reductionist conclusion that because someone - even a disabled person that's just kinda lib - said something that utterly dismisses the welfare of workers that then that means the literal words used are meaningless and bourgoise. food delivery - whether that be by shitty corporations charging an obscene surchrage, defunded programs like meals on wheels, or preferably you motherfuckers reading this right now constantly talking about how there's no praxis for you to do getting on a fucking bike - is going to be part of a much larger structure of care for everyone, and relying on a strict medicalist definition of "disabled" through diagnosis will make shit much worse. make sure your neighbors are actually eating, even the ones you really don't fucking like, because people don't deserve to live or die based on whether you personally get along with them, and creating the dual power structures that enable everyone to continue existing as the US continues to crumble apart is going to be vital to any attempt at revolution.

buy them refurbished for like $300 if you don't want OLED. the cheapest OLED is $500, but as people break theirs and/or get bored you'll start finding those refurbisehd too for a good price. get the cheapest one with the screen you want and slap a better NMVe drive in there, or if you're too scared to open it then buy an SD card for it.

tech CEO's that refuse to release the source code of medical devices should be tried and convicted on crimes against humanity and face execution. only by releasing the source code can they be freed.

actually kill people for not releasing source code for medical devices, make it an actual capital offense. if someone cannot at will see the code in their own body, then their basic bodily autonomy has been undermined.

It aleady has been. Anything, anything publicly posted and available will be harvested by, at a minimum, Google spiders. The only privacy benefits of any site can only be promises that they won't share the information that you don't publicly list.

And even then,.all it takes is the feds raiding a dipshit Kolektiva admin to get that information illegally anyways.

Do not organize serious actions over social media. At most, hold sensitive discussions over private, E2E encrypted chats like Matrix.

Starting with someone's dotfiles is a much better way to start with these minimalist window managers. You can see what they did and only tweak the the things you want to work different. Still not as easy as a DE's unified settings, but if you like that fine grained control it can be worthwhile. My setup is quite basic, but having everything bound to the keys I want lets me do what I want quickly.
