Same here, it’s the reason why I kicked Ubuntu off my laptop. They removed any way to choose and made it such a pain to get around the Snap bullshit. I’m on Linux because I want to choose what I do with my system.

I think the reality is that no one on Reddit gives a shit about Lemmy

I wouldn’t be so sure:

This is less about the instance as a whole. The !worldnews@lemmy.ml mods are notoriously terrible. It’s best to just avoid the community altogether.

The Linux version of the game is sometimes treated like an unloved stepchild though. I actually played the game through Wine for years because the Windows build had about twice the FPS on my Linux system.

There’s also a bug when reflections are enabled that makes the game unplayable and it hasn’t been fixed for about a year. It took them something like two years to fix another one where the mouse randomly left the window on a dual monitor setup and that one basically made me stop playing altogether. That said, I appreciate them supporting Linux in any case.

This totally reads like a E-Mail you’d find on a random PC in Deus Ex.

Huh, I exclusively browse Lemmy through a VPN and I’ve never seen that one.

I’m afraid it’s terminal.

The final nail will be when they eventually kill old.reddit.

No personally identifiable information or private account information is transmitted between instances. The only thing that is synced is the content of your posts, reports and up- and downvotes. And all of that serves a purpose and is shared willingly.

You’ll want to use something like text-generation-webui for LLMs. Not sure if this one is supported yet though.

Qbittorrent is my favorite client but there are a couple of great alternatives like Transmission or Deluge.

You really shouldn’t use uTorrent. There are a number of safer and better open source alternatives out there.

It was probably the content moderators if it was a controversial movie like you said. There’s not really a way to find out what happened unless you contact the admins.

Have you tried downgrading your drivers to the previous version?

Nah, I watch a lot of videos about cars and most sponsors are legitimate businesses and some that I’ve bought from before.

VPNs and apps on the other hand…

Word of advice: do not do this to any device that you actually depend on. Linux enthusiasm is all fine and fun, but this will kill most practical functionality of your device. I’d say try it out on a old phone you might have laying around but not on your daily driver.

Fair enough.

I mean… That essentially does the same thing but it’s much more complicated than just clicking a button in the qb GUI…

Adding to the qbittorrent recommendations: qb has Socks5 support and and supports binding traffic to a specific interface. It doesn’t get much better than this.
