Re-read what I said then try again.

Your point was that users can use arch install scripts to automate some of the setup process.

I countered by saying they could just use a distro that has an installer integrated directly into it.

I also added that in your mind, there is no legitimate reason to use an arch derivative. This highlights your bias.

What was I missing, exactly?

People are calling them Nazis because they support fascism.

Ask any republican if they'd rather live in a democratic society that is communist or a fascist one that is capitalist and all of them will say they prefer fascism.

They also support religious nationalism and governing based on emotions rather than logic and reason.

There are many parallels between republicans and Nazis. This is why the overwhelming majority of neo-nazis are conservative.

Whew, saved me clicking on this bullshit.

Thank you. Journalistic integrity is hard to come by.

Or just use a distro that sets everything up for you.

Seems like anything is the solution except that in your mind, lol.

Glad we have option 😎

Thought Arch was all about DIY?

Bro. It's a public forum. What 'digital privacy' are you talking about?

I think webapps are accessed solely through the browser. It doesn't make sense to differ them based on 'low level access.' I have an app that is essentially just HTTP requests to a RESTful server. I have access to all the features any other app has, provided I am granted the proper permissions. I still only use the app to communicate with a webserver via HTTP.

It's why we have someone saying "wefwef does things I didn't know a webapp could!" Probably because it's not a webapp. It's just an app, lol.

It also has nothing to do with writing an app in a platform's "native language." Jesus. Stop upvoting that guy, lol.

Sounds like discrimination based on sex. A clear violation of the Civil Rights act of 1964.

Thanks for the suggestion!

 

It’s a horrific oversight that the designers thought it would be okay for instances to block instances, but not users. Why are we cool with letting others control what we see but not ourselves? Either I block all NSFW or I’m showered with porn? I’d rather have the ability to block porn instances than have to block every user posting on them. It’s also really stupid because these users could be posting something elsewhere that I’d like to see. All in all, I’d like the designers to take a good, cold, hard look at who is making these decisions and why they’re listening to them.

It really doesn’t make sense to give instances this control but not users. I’m a huge fan of empowering users to be their own moderators, not relying on overlords with an agenda to do it for them.

That's pretty cool, but I think we should focus on leaving that platform altogether.

 

I mean what comes after the @. I'm tired of seeing a bunch of lame porn from @lemmynsfw
