Small projects do not benefit from economies of scale, I can almost guarantee you very little of this is actual profits.

I’m ok with k8s, I’m just chicken shit because I’ve never had an opportunity to use them in prod.

How does Talos differ from something like Ubuntu with microk8s?

Is it production-ready?

I’m thinking of setting it up on an OVH bare metal dedicated server to run various sites and Docker processes, but I don’t want to handle Kubernetes myself.

Both can be true, Python does have a lot of examples floating online.

That’s because scripted languages are more forgiving in general.

No, their customer base is now American Libertarians, not FOSS and privacy-centric people.

There is a mild overlap, but the actual target demographic has been made much clearer recently.

You: “Public opinion is tanking, so it must be true!”

Them: Provides detailed, sourced information that explains the situation

You: “Nerd, I don’t read that shit”

Are you following your emotions or are you truly trying to understand the changes? You seem to be attacking / strawmanning people left and right in this thread and are generally not interacting in good faith.

Onus probandi.

You make the claims, you serve the proof. You can’t point at a vague, general direction and go “here, proof!”. Especially not a social media feed, that’s the most subjective, volatile “proof” you could provide.

Quote me the text, in its full context, where it says that Mozilla is selling the data they are “now collecting”, or that it was optional for them without degrading services. Because I can’t find it.

All I see is data that Mozilla is required to collect to provide existing services, they are now putting it in black on white. I don’t really care what the “general opinion” is, opinions do not automatically become facts once sufficient people hold them.

I’ve seen Mozilla do bad stuff, this is just a very standard privacy policy update. Let’s criticize them when they actually deserve it, and encourage them the rest of the time.

Also, nice strawman instead of simply answering my question. 🥰

Can you be more specific than pointing in a vague direction?

Because it sends a message that they do not support community-driven projects and will instead support large, corporate social media.

It would not have meant anything if they were never on Mastodon in the first place.

I don’t see how it’s relevant with a productivity suite.

Don’t care, don’t do crypto. Where my Linux apps at?

I have not encountered those yet. I guess keep a Gmail handy if you really must.

Which email host did you switch to? Looking for something hosted in Canada, ideally.

Set your emails up with your own domain name. Never have this problem again.

I’m having a hard time believing anything they say when the incoming administration they seemingly support is constantly making threats of invading our country.

Andy here, since it’s my original post that’s being reposted here, let me comment further.

My post is talking about Gail Slater, who is by all measures, actually a good pick, with a solid track record of being on the right side of the antitrust issue. Yes, she happens to be nominated by Trump, but her record speaks for itself.

This is not going to be a popular opinion, but on the specific issue of antitrust, Democrats fell short. In 2022, we campaigned extensively in the US for anti-trust legislation. Two bills were ready, with bipartisan support. Chuck Schumer (who coincidently has two daughters working as big tech lobbyists) refused to bring the bills for a vote. In the aftermath of this failure, great people like former Democratic rep David Cicilline left congress, leaving few strong voices for antitrust left in the Democratic party. In the meantime, at a 2024 event covering antitrust remedies, out of all the invited senators, just a single one showed up - JD Vance.

By working on the front lines of many policy issues, we have seen the shift between Dems and Republicans over the past decade first hand. And that’s a missed opportunity for Dems, because by and large, support for cracking down on corporate monopolies is popular on both sides of the political spectrum. Unfortunately, corporate capture of Dems is real and in the end money won. It is hard to see how this changes, and Republicans are likely to lead the antitrust charge in the coming years.

From that perspective, and going back to my original post, Gail is a great pick. One should not equate our support of Gail for Proton not being neutral anymore. We continue to call out bad behavior from both sides, whether it’s Dems or Republicans, on our core issues. Just a few weeks ago, we were called out for being in bed with Soros because we gave money to too many “liberal” organizations: https://proton.me/blog/2024-lifetime-fundraiser-results No, the Proton Foundation isn’t the new Soros either (even if we may coincidentally fund some of the same things sometimes). We simply stick with our strongly held core believes, and leave politics out of it, because the issues we care about, should be apolitical.

Stop using AI to generate images. It’s obvious, it looks awful, and companies are genuinely looking to use it to stop having to pay human artists.

Yeah GitHub out there being silly
