  • When I installed pop! Os (on my ass) it was laggy and a little glitchy, it’s like the whole os would just freeze up sometimes. It really got on my nerves. I prefer nobara, it’s so snappy and fast, everything just feels better than windows, and it’s way more customizable. But there is definitely a higher learning curve and some small weird glitches you have to deal with so I wouldn’t recommend it to someone without intermediate knowledge








  • All I’m saying is generally when those in big tech establish a non profit, it’s for the wrong reasons, or it eventually becomes the wrong reasons. Look at open AI. They had a non profit and and profit side. The non profit side essentially controlled with the for profit side did, then when they ousted the CEO for doing things that were clearly in the interest of profit over the betterment of society, the CEO had set it up so that without him the open AI ship began to sink. Then those on the board that were against him were ousted from the board. It was a hostile takeover.

    I’m not saying that’s going to happen with mastadon, I’m just saying they have some key players that are investors and/or long time workers in big tech and it puts a bad taste in my mouth.

    Welp, don’t like that. US nonprofit is a huge misnomer. For the most part they’re used by the wealthy to create businesses that don’t need to pay taxes.

    Edit: Not sure why I’m getting mass downvotes. The non profit system in America is where the wealthy go to create tax free income. The CEOs of non profits still get huge salaries. Just seems out of line with the vision of a true non profit IMO. That’s why I call it a misnomer. Non profits are almost never set up to do what they actually say they are trying to do. They’re often just created to get public favor and money laundering.
