Heyo! Just another random who’s moving over from centralized social media to the Fediverse. Mastodon wasn’t too bad but I love anything like Reddit!
Games, anime, Japanese, food, and music are my loves. Fanfic beats food tho, I can read for hours instead!
I’ve been living with Fedora Silverblue for the past month or two and loving it, except for the fact there is no true good alternative to ShareX (FOSS but on Windows only) for taking screenshots, video clips, audio clips, and having easily configurable hot key galore. Is Wine + Share X a good/viable alternative? Cause Flameshot is very rudimentary compared to it.
I use ShareX for sentence mining when I consume Japanese media for easy Anki flashcard creation.
I mean yeah, it’s still pretty much in beta rn.
Not ur fault or anything but I’m a little tired of the people who keep questioning loops and pixelfed on being open source and federated. Like, it’s coming/already happened bro, just chill.
People keep being like “Is Pixelfed FOSS yet?” When there’s literally several 3rd party apps available for the service already (I use Pixelix). Loops app is in beta on Android and iOS, it’ll be open source when it’s not absolute dogwater to run (ngl the UI scroll is painful).
But like it just got funding and new members last week, it will be fully FOSS soon enough…
This is why I get so fucking mad at the tradwife Tiktok people, who go “Oh feminists are forcing you to go to work, I miss the good old days!”
Like no you fucking don’t, in the “good old days” since the industrial revolution anyone who wasn’t rich had to work their ass off in shit conditions, including women and children. These people never read The Jungle (that shit was horrifying in middle school, and I only read an excerpt), or saw the pictures of coal kids, or the Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire back in 1911 that killed 100+ women and girls.
You get to pose for the camera with a full face of makeup and hold your soccer team of kids because your husband is rich and thinks you’re hot. Full stop.
