Some people just have other priorities. As soon as you start moral grandstanding like this you better check your squeaky clean because I bet there’s something like this that can be said about you.
Speak for yourself. I have my own chip fab in my basement and I make my own smartphones and PC boards. I get all of the glass and silicon I need from local beach sand.
If you want one of my phones, graphics cards, or mother boards, visit my stall at the farmers market. I also pack my electronics in sustainable mason jars. If you return the jars I will give you a discount on my handmade hemp USB cables.
For those people, the “free” services they’re using aren’t “bad enough” for them to bother leaving. Couple that with the majority of people they care about also staying, and that’s the result.
Long shot but I could see this being a sneaky ad targeting the same type of person who buys clothing with “infidel” written in Arabic and goes around explaining that to anyone who will listen. Bonus points if they totally would’ve joined the military during the GWOT era but didn’t want to end up punching a drill instructor/sergeant/whatever the taxi service and chair force have.
Billy Badass and friends give a bump in sales so they can find opportunities to spread the “knowledge”, people think about the product more than they otherwise would due to controversy and if the response is overwhelmingly negative, the company doesn’t even have to play the damage control game since their fingerprints aren’t anywhere on it.
Not saying I think this is the case but it’d make for an interesting leaked memo.
I don’t trust them. I use them and throw them. I know it can go down anytime or it can change it’s rules and regulations anytime. Enjoy until then and if it fucks like reddit, move on and find new place. Sometimes when everyone around us is using big tech products for work or personal, we have to use it.
For context, KDE (Kool Desktop Environment) is a style of desktop for Linux operating systems. The Linux desktop can look like whatever you want. It could look like Windows 11 or MacOS or something completely different. (I’m over simplifying)
You could have explained that Bismarck used one of Jesus’ toenails to shave, but only on Sundays, and it’d added just as much context to whatever the fuck OP has going on.
