Most Arch users don’t actually use Arch because it doesn’t have a GUI installer.

I don’t think it’s entirely a double standard. Yes Steam is still a launcher, but it’s also the marketplace I buy my games. If I bought a game on Origin or UPlay, and then Steam popped up when I was trying to play my game, that would still be bullshit.

This is a pretty old template iirc

Most desktops have a graphical startup editor

Fedora is great, if you don’t like the default UI (I am a GNOME hater btw) you can easily try out one of the Fedora Spins with a different desktop environment while keeping Fedora’s stability and features. I recommend Fedora KDE for faster machines and Fedora Cinnamon for older machines or people that want something that’s snappier.

But accidentally misgendering someone is often considered paramount to taking part in the holocaust

Just because 4chan and Fox News says so, doesn’t make it true

“you know what? fuck you. I’m going to misgender you out of spite”

Gosh it sure seems like you’re just making excuses to be a spiteful petty asshole to groups you don’t like

We can have the government do something and have people raise their kids, it’s not either/or.

Ehh, idk about that. Sure it’s not like, absolutely mega popular, but math channels like 3blue1brown and Numberphile, along with general “sciency” channels like Veritasium and Vsauce Michael Here, have a very wide penetration into the sorta intellectual adjacent audience. Anyone that used to just throw on the Discovery channel 20 years ago is probably aware of those channels if they spend any time on youtube.

Esoteric? Isn’t it one of the most popular math channels on YouTube?

What leftist dogma do liberals reject?

LGB peoples saying that trans and queer people co-opted “their” movement

Small interjection, but every time I went to the LGBdtT subreddit, it was mostly straight people “sticking up for” LGB people, and not really a place for discussing sexuality at all, just railing against trans people.

Android is the first thing I think of when I hear Linux phone

I weep for those who haven’t played Chrono Trigger

New battle royale just dropped

Radio fucking sucks, amigo. Literally the most homogeneous playlists ever unless you are close enough to a college radio station or a major city that can support anything other than top 40 or the same 100 classic rock songs.

And then there was the weekly Dracula thing popular on Tumblr a few years ago where they take a non serialized novel (as far as I know) and split it up based on the dates of the correspondence within, going a level further than serialization and delivering the story “real time” as the letters and newspapers were sent/published in the story.

Imagine Chrome not allowing you to visit specific sites and then Firefox not allowing you to visit a different set of sites.

Imagine a worse, less fitting analogy

You can literally spin up your own instance in 20 minutes and see every instance ever if you’d like, it’s a choice and its good to have

xenophobes scared of everything and defederating everyone

Go join a monolithic network if you are not interested in the features of the fediverse.

baby its not xenophobic to defederate, calm down

Ability to choose with whom to federate with is a core concept of the Fediverse

If you don’t want any defederation, join an instance that doesn’t do it.
