You specifically state that you're glad that your CPU and GPU aren't a vector for companies to fuck with you, but they are a vector for Apple to fuck with you. Apple just hasn't done it (yet?)

It's not that "Apple is bad" it's that you're commenting about how you're glad that companies like Nvidia can't fuck with you, while being seemingly oblivious to the fact that Apple absolutely can fuck with you because you're running a proprietary OS using proprietary drivers on proprietary hardware. Apple has more power over you than Nvidia does over Linux users, yet you're commenting here like Apple is a better choice.
Reddit's burst of users from digg though was on top of an established site with a reasonable userbase. How many people were using lemmy before spez decided that Twitter was a role model instead of a cautionary tale?
Thank you for bringing both your technical skills and your steady handed approach to moderation to Lemmy. I signed up on lemm.ee a little over a year ago because at the time it was the largest instance with an open sign up process that had a reasonably neutral stance on moderation. So far it is my only Lemmy account, and I doubt I'll ever need to make another.
