I’m wondering about her reason for not using one too. What is the advantage?
She thinks the web can’t exist without ads? It can, because it did once.
Long time linux user and tinkerer. Currently working as a devops engineer. Very positive to the idea of decentralized internet platforms. :)

Go back to windows is not an option, it’s a really horrible system. I dont see how people can use it without blowing their brains out.
Just another reason to not have a YouTube account. If you use Newpipe, you can subscribe to feeds anyway without any YouTube account.
I didn’t pick them. :)
Yeah it’s even better, I agree. :)
Dev 101 is not followed in real life… Sadly, caring about code quality is difficult or impossible when you work with others.
Most users actually have enjoyed both systemd and pulseaudio for many years now. They are both some of the best technology we have in the Linux world.
Kind of obvious how it works isn’t it? You become hateful as you fight evil, and you become more and more accepting of cruelty as long as it’s to the enemy. Happens in wars all the time.
You become what you fight, very easily, if you are not careful.
This is the reaction I get from people too. :)
Judging from reviews, people are avoiding VW now because of really shitty infotainment systems…
It’s ad blocking and entire operating systems, or computers configured in any way they don’t like.
If this goes through, they can force you to install any plugins they wish, or disable any plugins they wish. Or make sure you don’t run Linux and only Windows or Mac. They can force you to have your camera on. They can do anything since they make the rules.
No innovation will take place. Competing browsers or software will not be allowed or manipulated into marketed as “unsafe”.
This is a takeover of the open web stack as we know it.
It’s not about that… I don’t know why it’s so hard to understand the psychology here. They feel strongly that something is wrong and want to fight it. That’s it.
Again, not supporting it at all but you should at least understand that they are not so different from us. They just grew up around hate for these things and continue to feel hate for these things.
If they would have grown up in a different environment, I don’t think they would even care about any of this.
This is typical of Windows in general. You are basically a guest in your own computer, asking for permission to do something from Microsoft, or in this case, Nvidia.
I think eventually, some people will be OK with paying 5 dollars per month for a YouTube competitor that is better than the original. Much like Kagi is doing for search engines. It won’t be for the majority since they still expect free stuff and no ads, which doesn’t work.
