    The fact that Windows devs seem to not know how to run tasks hidden and in the background always bothers me. I’m sure it’s the fault of Windows itself, but Linux doesn’t open jack until I tell it to. With all the extra helper programs needs in the tray to run all the proprietary hardware, I about lose it with all the shit popping up to yell at me.






  • I would love to if all of the most helpful specialized communities didn’t all use it.

    I can’t even get my friends or family to use Matrix/Element, let alone the masses.

    Trust me, I want to make the full switch, but if I’m hanging out on my fancy open source server with no one on it, what’s the point?

    I will agree that anything akin to Facebook or Xitter isn’t helping achieve anything, since they don’t provide communication that can’t be found elsewhere (social updates, memes, event invitations, etc), but for communities like this specifically, there’s just not many other places to go.
