Kommt darauf an:

Wenn man isst was man ist, dann ist man ja schon was und das Essen wird in dem Moment zu dem, was man schon war.

Wenn man ist was man isst, dann wird man in dem Moment zu dem Essen, was man soeben gegessen hat.

Oder so.

Why does it require a phone number to use?!

I do, I feel like we desperately need some more competition/options in the browser engine space.

I basically have one primary criteria in choosing operating systems: I want the one that gets the least in my way doing the things I want to do (whether that's something productive or entertainment). I don't care that I'm using Linux, it just happens to be Linux (or a Linux distro) that's currently better at getting out of my way than Windows (or macOS, or any other OS).

I've been evaluating Linux on my desktop like once per year maybe, and until recently Windows always won in terms of getting out of my way. I was using Windows 10 LTSC IoT before (because guess what: it got in my way less than regular Windows 10/11) and it was pretty good honestly, but what finally tipped the scales over for me was that Microsoft decided to let an update add unwanted entries into my start menu and re-enable the stupid search field in the task bar.

So I re-evaluated different Linux distributions last year, eventually landed on Fedora and together with swapping my Nvidia RTX 3080 for a Radeon 7800 XT for better Linux compatibility (especially with Wayland) and also Valve's Proton getting better and better, I started using a Linux distro full-time on my desktop January 1st, 2024.

Stuck with Fedora for a few months and landed at openSUSE Tumbleweed (after some annoyances regarding SELinux and other things iirc with the Fedora 40 update). Tumbleweed or rather the fact that it's bleeding edge had its fair share of issues in the last days (with some big releases like Mesa 24.1, Plasma 6.1 and some other packages being relatively buggy). This made me think about using a more stable distro like Debian or openSUSE Leap (I know there's also Slowroll, but some issues Tumbleweed has also roll over to it), but then again I pretty much always have fairly recent hardware in my PC, which usually demands somewhat recent kernels and other packages.

If I find that Windows gets less in my way tomorrow than what I'm currently using, I'll consider switching to Windows. Or macOS. Or Debian. Or FreeBSD. Etc.

Win 3.1 works great via DOSBox, even supporting higher resolutions and color depths.

If you count different versions of Ubuntu separately, then yes.

Depending on how it's done they aren't really comparable.

I'm not familiar with openSUSE's immutable distro, but Fedora bases their atomic variants on what are essentially glorified container images (meaning they include a kernel for example). Every single deployment of a given image will be identical to each other. Only certain directories are writeable so that configuration and user data can be modified independently of the base image.

You can also "overlay" your own/custom packages, which essentially installs them into the image. When updating, a new base image is pulled and your overlayed packages are installed into the base image again. With a "regular" distro, you are deriving from the default install as soon as you install packages or even uninstall default packages (which also works with atomic distros, but the package removal is overlayed).

It's not so much about the ability to rollback as it is about reproducibility across several machines. It's comparable to how iOS (and recently also macOS) and most Android variants work.

Hahaha that got me! I legit thought this could've been a PR stunt that actually may have happened until I read the last sentence ... after which I thought it was even more likely to have happened.

It's actually 10 years old when taking the original Wii U version of Mario Kart 8 into account.

One might even go as far as saying it's morally not okay to pay for a Nintendo game because you are in a way financing their lawyers.

But consider that anything not honoring your time and attention is disrespecting you.

This is why I use ad blockers, switched to Linux and why I'm always quick to delete apps that continuously nag me to do something.

rclone supports Proton Drive, no need to run a Windows VM for that.

Normally, list items have an active state when they are being tapped (example from Mlem):

Lemma doesn't seem to have any special state for an active list item. This can make it seem like one didn't actually touch the item, it feels kind of weird to use.

Would it be possible to update the TestFlight build whenever a new build is pushed to the App Store? This way, TestFlight users won't have to switch to the App Store version because the TestFlight version would always be at least as new.
