  • Meta apps / "services" are spyware and social engineering and they're barely trying to hide it at this point. TBH they could say it out loud and like 1% of people would delete the apps

  • I just took a peek and you're right. But there is an option to "pause" a group, I didn't explore enough to see if it could be permanent. The rule that you can only delete a group when it has no members is absurd, wtf

  • You should be able to "archive" a group as admin, which essentially shuts it down. I haven't tried but I've seen it happen in other groups. And yeah, it's really disturbing what people will accept from FB for the sake of inertia and comfort. I've told a couple friends about Meta using the localhost loophole for tracking and recommended they delete the apps and just use the web version if they need to, and they all still have the apps. Who even needs privacy, right? Sigh

  • It seems only image containing content federates to Pixelfed, so text only posts are not visible

  • That's interesting (a little chaotic with the different sized images but still). I've been using Interstellar for Piefed and it apparently doesn't support that, so I had no idea

  • I had a bad feeling about that with Pixelfed when I saw them repeatedly ignoring questions about when to expect groups, ha! I know you can follow / reply to Lemmy groups with Mastodon, but can you post to them from there? Or from Pixelfed?

  • I'd rather keep it part of a bigger social network where people can interact with it as needed while doing other social stuff. Plus I know most people won't leave FB for it, and getting new different people involved would be nice. Just a bonus if people move to the Fediverse to see it and realize there's more to explore.

  • Maybe I haven't given it a super fair chance, but I was not impressed with Friendica. I only tried it on the webapp, but the interface was just depressing and not super intuitive. I keep hearing it's a good substitute for FB but it needs some work before I would feel comfortable recommending that to people

  • Linux Mint a PITA to install on Win 11

    Jump

  • I don't even game or use any Windowed only programs. I watch shows, use web apps for work, and that's about it. If I can run Firefox and Stremio that's about 95% of my needs met, ha!

    I dug out my old MacBook to see if I can test out some distros on it. If I find one I like and use for a bit I'd be all in on trashing Windows

  • Interesting, what distro did you end up using?

  • This. I had to do my attempted Linux install while my kid was napping in like my 30 mins of free time I get a day if I'm lucky

  • Once you fixed that issue did Linux work well dual booting? I'm sure I can get past it but I'm mostly worried that this foreshadows ongoing problems

    Jump

  • I had a bad feeling that dual booting wouldn't be the seamless thing I hoped for. I have an old Mac laptop I might try installing on to see how I like it and decide if I'm just gonna wipe Windows entirely.

    It's incredible how shit Windows is and everyone just accepts it. It shows me ads on my lock screen FFS (and I know how to disable that cuz I've done it three times now and they keep coming back like a horror movie monster you didn't behead).

  • Thing is people really don't know what brains look like or the force that would be required to crack the skull. I don't think a deer is capable of it.

    BUT it very well could have cracked an antler and busted open a good wound and left a bloody mess that you might assume were brains.

    But also this sounds like total BS.
