We have a similar saying in my family, but it translates into break one generation at a time, meaning you allow the kids to be lazy while the parents work themselves to death. It is usually used as a dig when someone younger is lazy.
Good, break up that boring monotonous pattern.
For me personally I just hate that I do not know where to find configs, especially when using a dotfiles repo, it becomes harder than if they're all available under a common path.
Wait, isn't this exactly the argument that Putin uses about NATO?
Not a fan of either, but it feels hypocritical for NATO to call Putin's arguments nonsense, and then turn around and use that exact argument against China.
I'm stealing that one.
Alpine might be a contender.
Were you born in the 1970s? Both me and my wife heard that exact same sentence from our mothers.
I've heard hotter than the hinges of hell, but can't remember the context.

These kind of policies seem to be cropping up everywhere right now. The EU just rejected a similar policy. I wonder if there is a coordinated effort behind this and if so, who is behind that effort?
I'm not sure of the specifics you refer to, but it sounds a bit like walled-garden-thinking that there's a central authority that can enforce rules. Lemmy is very different in that regard, every instance is subject to its owner/admin and as long as mods operate within what the operator finds acceptable, it goes.
