Мне нравится идея сообществ, но язык совершенно не учтён в лемми. Очень жаль, потому что подписываться на людей - странная идея, как в мастодон. Однако все сообщества - англоязычные, а разноязычными должны быть серверы, а не сообщества. В матриксе хотя бы комнат можно понасоздавать…
The description missed: desperate attempt of OP to paint Wikipedia (the open source successful project which democratized public knowledge) same colours as Facebook and Twitter.
Whenever I see these coy political memes I’m grateful that I’m not on the side where our extremists are the mainstream. The political theory is great, guys. In theory. Don’t make it your personality.
Could any of you genocide deniers make an argument about why the people of Xinjiang should stay in their concentration camps without bringing up America’s past sins?
Isn’t it totally possible America is evil and so is China?
Might seem a little far-fetched, but i’m going to go out on a limb here and say that the community that basically worships conspicuous consumption of electronics with complete disregard for e-waste and electrical consumption in support of being a better gamer, a consumer identity fabricated by marketing companies, and have thus turned it into an implicit contest might not be interested in practicality, liberty, nor freely available goods unless they’re the most visually appealing
Not all Linux distributions are free. A market share can also be taken by a product which is free. It’s just a piece of the market.
You don’t count OS market share by the amount of money you spent for an OS (because then, MacOS would be free, since it’s technically given away bundled with Apple hardware) but by the number of installs.
When they announced they would make their codebase proprietary it was definitely a turning point. In hindsight, you can clearly see a shift in their way of doing things from that point on.
Actually, if we’re nit-picking, it means “Personal Computer”, but the colloquial meaning has shifted somewhat since the good old IBM times to first mean desktop computers (as opposed to laptops), and then to mean non-Apple computers (including laptops), which for most people means “a computer that runs Windows.”
It would have been anything that implements Bios enough to boot MS-DOS, more or less.
But now that’s not what anyone actually wants anymore since Windows, the thing people usually boot, wants UEFI instead. So I would say now it is probably anything that can run x86 code and boot Windows, even if it’s from System76 and meant to run Linux.
