Canva makes me regret living. There I finally fucking said it. Whew that feels better.

Just change one other mind. If everyone did the same they would be gone in no time. Do two and it will be done even sooner.

If self hosting your music you could always go down the route of Listenbrainz scrobbling with something like Explo to autograb the weekly recommended playlist. Same goes for Last.fm. Music discovery is also the thing that had me hooked for so long.

Just got done studying for an AWS cert required for my job. It was 150 bucks and an absolute waste of my time. Do not envy us.

I can actually speak to this as I also have weird issues with FF that doesn’t happen on a Chromium based browser.

Forms are a huge pain in the ass on FF a nonzero amount of time. It seems form validation and error handling simply fail a lot and it makes it almost impossible to navigate, even with me trying to fix their broken code.

Another weird place I’ve had issues intermittently is marketplace grids. Think Home Depot search results. Entire grids won’t show up or have CSS beyond comprehension.

Lastly video codecs. I use asbPlayer a lot and FF just does not have the same capabilities.

I can’t speak on OPs problems but I’ve absolutely had my fair share.

If people are always mischaracterizing what you say, maybe take a step back and reevaluate what you are saying.

So paying people a living wage is “free money” but what about the millions in subsidies we hand out to companies? The same subsidies they have no intention of putting towards their people and instead use it all for stock buybacks? It seems extremely insane to be upset by this when the larger problem is staring us in the face.

There is no bottom for the people looking extract every ounce of wealth from the rest of us.

I’ll say it, it makes you better. (This is not biased, I just so happen to also have that same preference)

I’d wager even the 1% is the stereotypical “solution in search of a problem”. Seems to be a reoccurring theme as of late in the tech industry.

It isn’t done. It really is never done. Purely from a “keeping the lights on” mode, you still fix minor bugs, update dependencies, fix vulnerabilities and maybe even make small code changes. Outside of that, you are always implementing new features, fixing old features, or creating tests/automation. All of that takes a lot of work and requires manpower.

It has been breaking a lot lately and it’s really sad. I pretty much pull all of my content off of YouTube now through yt-dlp so once that goes, im pretty much entirely YouTube free. I absolutely refuse to use it in the state it’s in now and really wish more creators would offer content on other platforms. Yt-dip is amazing and great but shouldn’t be the permanent solution.

Yeah I’m not quite sure you understand how webpages or the massive backend processes that keep it afloat work.

No no it’s a free market until feels the burn then it becomes a problem!

I know it’s not DOS per se but just getting into Caves of Qud and MAN I’m loving it.

We failed this person and I’m utterly disgusted by it. What a fucking sad, pathetic country we have here.

Why the hell would anybody ever want to be on a platform for children? Why would any parent allow their kids on a platform for adults?

How is Matrix dysfunctional?

Setting up Matrix/Synapse was extremely easy and done in a day. The self hosting part is not that hard and I would say migrating users would be the majority of your time. Plenty of VPSs online make obtaining infrastructure very easy.
