  • As much as I want to agree to this, a part of me screams “STOP FANBOYING CORPORATIONS”

    Lemme tell you a short story about bait and switch

    We all know that android is a collaboration of companies to have an open handset ecosystem (which is weird, because these are companies driven for profit)

    one of these companies is quallcomm, they were so nice that they released an open source “bridge” for devs to thier hardware called codeauroraforums

    Thier marketshare grew and the performance of thier hardware were miles ahead the competition

    Then it came when these “subpar” and cheaper semicons caught up on thier performance and also…covid happened

    it shrank quallcomms earnings, made them to make some “decisions” and one of them is killing codeauroraforums, switched thier “opensource” stuff to codelinaro in which, all of the hardware supported are devkits of thier struggling snapdragon x

    In addition to these decisions to increase earnings, they also made a deal with microsoft to make laptop chipsets (just like what apple did. Unfortunately, barebone windows on arm is different from windows on snapdragon, and now they’re finger pointing who’ll support that thing, lmao)

    So…uhm…yea, stop fanboying corporations and thank you for listening to my ted talk

    btw AMD is cool with linux…for now








  • Why would you like to federate something that has practiced a “single/minimal domain fits all” ? (ads, scripts, media, trackers, etc. in a single fucking domain), that’ll most likely to stress your instance/server and bandwidth since you cant segregate the stuff you only need. I know activitypubs runs differently but if they managed to put thier style of “single domain fits all” (its only a matter of time) then they could just easily inject thier stuff (ads, trackers or whatever the fuck they have) on your instance making your instance thier side bitch
