Tattooed_MummySo far the fediverse has led me from twitter to mastodon and encouraged me to give up Gmail for proton mail. What next? Lord, I'll be looking into Linux for my old laptop next. It's like a cult here.
I'm not complaining

dingodog@Tattooed_mummy does Usenet still work?
Whitey@Tattooed_mummy Linux is great if you like to tinker
Ludovic :Firefox: :FreeBSD:@Tattooed_mummy you should consider a BSD instead of linux :p
dibi58next you may find out there is too much gafami even on linux and look at other non proprietary nor incumbered options
you may find out your hardware is unsafe and may look into esoteric architectures
you may find out that there is too much scraping even on the fedi and look into p2p networks possibly on the darknet i2p tor
you may find out service providers offer warrantless access to anybody and you may look into lora, packet radio and meshes that bypass providers
Sam Weston@Tattooed_mummy Sorry not sorry. 😆
verb (printfJess) 🦄@Tattooed_mummy Linux is pretty great, ngl
abhijith@Tattooed_mummy When you buy a new computer it will come with Linux🤣.
LONG LIVE HERRSCHER OF SENTIENCE!@Tattooed_mummy what part of fediverse are you hanging with if it makes you want to ditch gmail for protonmail?
Anders Rytter Hansen@Tattooed_mummy we have a good influence :D
linux is awesome. i'm on fedora silverblue. its a very stable and solid distro and still has new package versions but wouldnt recommend it for new users because it can be complicated to use. ubuntu or regular fedora may be good to try for new users.
Murad@Tattooed_mummy it'd be worth coming out in favour of a specific Linux distro to stimulate a proper debate about why you're wrong 😉👍

Typically cults are about less freedom, not more. Seems like this is more like deprogramming.
