or maybe we acknowledge these issues and browse lemmy for entertainment and getting away from the stresses of daily life rather than be constantly reminded of it and roped into repetitive discussions that are preaching to the choir

err, what I meant was we need to burn down the system

I love how most major US companies commit crimes against humanity and that's considered very normal and business as usual but whenever Saudi Arabia diversifies its funds it's suddenly the most horrifying inhumane maniacal evil thing imaginable and we get 500 articles reiterating that. They spent money on football? They're sportswashing us! It's all a conspiracy!!!

Meanwhile many US companies run on child slavery, others like Nestle extort precious materials from Africa and intentionally de-stabalize countries there, many western countries such as US support genocide in Israel and so on. But that's just business as usual, can we PLEASE focus on Saudi Arabia's spending on sports?!?!?

What the hell, this still happens? This was a bug I had like 6-7 years ago. Same problem, KDEWallet popping up asking me for verification even though I never used it.

Mostly aesthetically, but also since Linux Mint is a very stable distro updates are usually slow and the packages it uses are often outdated. If you're the type of person to want to update to the newest thing as soon as it's out, then it's probably not for you.

Manjaro and Ubuntu have never really had perfect out of the box experiences imo, and as usual the Linux community loved to recommend bad starter distros.

If you want something that "just works" I'd highly recommend ZorinOS or PopOS. They've got good defaults. Linux Mint is also good, but it does feel a little outdated.

FF16 looks incredible, but sadly I don't own a PS5 so I guess I'll wait for the PC version to come around. I hope it isn't too far away...
