Yeah. It’s real good. I wish we were federated with more instances, but thats a process and will take time.

Only if your fifteen minute comment recorded during the morning commute is transcribed by the most limited speech to text system possible and put as alt text.

Lockdown mode stops it.

You’re welcome to join hexbear, where this federation decision was voted on and we tried to make a space for people who are tired of the fediverse too.

Just chiming in to thank mr clay for making that thread so engaging and fun and to second his recommendation that you read it.

You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll leave cursing the great satan, amerikkka!

You’re welcome to join hexbear. We had a big ol vote about this and are trying to create communities for the people that want a respite from federated posts and content!

It’s incredibly entertaining fr

Couple hundred gigs. Everything else is on the server.

Eh, none of this is really addressing the fundamentals of getting comfortable figuring out how to do what you wanna do, which is what in my experience leads to people seeing command line use as magic incantations.

Like, if you’re on windows you know how to figure out how to do what you wanna do, right click a file, look for entries in the context menu, look at the properties, open with, etc.

This works because people fundamentally understand the metaphor behind the operating system.

If you’re in bash and don’t know how to do what you wanna do you don’t need any of this fancy zoomer shit, just use “which”, “man”, whatever your package manager offers and the other commands that had big oriley books written about em.

People need to develop the command line equivalent of the “click around and see if you learn anything” skills.

E: I gave the linked article another read and it really is about setting up a production environment in the command line and not about getting people comfortable with the command line at all.

Like, if someone needs to cut down a tree in their front yard they don’t need to know how to operate a felller-buncher, they need to know how to use an axe handle to judge where the tree will fall and what it will fall on.
