that would break iMessage support on older iOS devices that no longer are supported

Yes, that’s what “no longer supported” means.

Valve is currently a private company, which is likely why they’ve been able to avoid enshittification for so long. All we can do is hope that whoever eventually takes over when Gabe steps down also has his ideals at heart.

Ah I see. I don’t think there’s a way to do that yet.

If you’re so inclined, perhaps you could contribute to the discussion (or development) around tags on Lemmy here, since a feature like that would solve your issue.

Just block the community. It would have been faster than typing this comment.

Why not have the best of both worlds? Set up a repo with all the information, then run a bot that periodically updates a pinned post with the data from the repo.

I love Zorin, probably for more superficial reasons than most. I like a clean UI and Zorin provides that by default, no fiddling. I get that people like customisability and ricing and all that, and if I could design my OS as easily as I could write CSS then I probably would, but I’ve yet to find something that lets me do that. And even if I do find it, Zorin still looks good and just works, which is most of what I care about.

Everyone here is saying it’s fantastic and much better compared to 10 years ago, which is completely true.

However, the state of VR gaming is still pretty dire. You can get it working on some hardware setups, but not others, and it’s nontrivial to find out what’s going wrong. I’ve lost a couple of days trying to diagnose problems on multiple distros and it just doesn’t seem to work for me. It may work for you, but the chances are a lot lower than if you were to just play normal games.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but it seems like it would be trivially easy for Meta to make an army of bot accounts to manipulate whichever posts they want into being near the top of people’s feeds. That could be regular ads disguised as normal posts (a la Reddit-style guerilla marketing), or even more political astroturfing.

Okay, but that doesn’t address any of the points I brought up.

You said to give Meta a chance. The rest of us are broadly gesturing at all the shit they’ve done in the past, and how we want as little to do with that as possible.

Innocent until proven otherwise.

Corporations like Meta have shown time and time again that they cannot be trusted to play nice with anyone else. Have we already forgotten about Cambridge Analytica or the plethora of other scandals they’ve been at the center of? The proof has been in plain view for a while now.
