Just to be safe you may want to copy important files to a cloud storage AND usb drive before formatting the drive.

Also don’t overthink this and there is nothing wrong with Kubuntu, but Kinoite is going to be very similar and a little more resistant to n00b tinkering mistakes.

I don’t think starfleet captains have the authority to command the hearts and minds of their officers.

True, I edited my comment. I personally recommend the USB method (or if you have easy access to the internals- just swapping out an SSD).

It got cloudy

First of all, you are on feddit.nl and cannot speak for"Lemmy". That said- if anything, “Lemmy” users should be supporting independent journalism like 404 Media.

It’s to prevent scraping/harvesting by AI: https://www.404media.co/why-404-media-needs-your-email-address/

They do not ask for a phone number.

It takes some doing, but you can live boot windows from a USB drive for those rare instances you need it. You can also just install it to a VM inside Linux (also not easy). But honestly these days the times where you’ll NEED Windows are few and far between (and getting fewer and farther).

Not liking someone is not a good reason to root against decentralized platforms, IMO. The entire point of decentralization is that nobody gets to control the experience and who is/isn’t allowed to participate.

Unless he joins fedia.io you don’t really get a say in what he does… kind of the entire point behind decentralization…

It’s also an avenue for attacks.

The growth of the network*

There are many platforms in the Fediverse. The fact that the network can survive the collapse of one platform is a strength of decentralization. The Lemmy/mbin/piefed universe can only ever be exactly as big as we, the users, want it to be.

Ah yes, famous coward Harvey Milk /s

Tinder started as a “hook-up” app, if they went back to that kind of marketing I would not find the company quite so reprehensible.

FWIW I agree, but I would say imperfect instead, on account of the many trans people I have heard say they related in some ways.

I just watched this episode recently. If Klingons don’t care why should humans?

Um are you aware what community this is

You are correct and I don’t mean to shame but it has been their goal for 7 years now since the redesign in 2018.

Bazzite is a custom image of Kinoite, but I’m not surprised it’s taking off, it’s great.

M*A*S*H is a very good show, it’s aged (a little too) well and the jokes still land to this day. Highly recommended.
