I just want the basics like ~, cat, grep, curl, etc to work.

I once had to install openssh on windows because the default util for ssh was ass, for some reason it would work very differently than every other client i tried

With containers I guess it matters less. You could have a Windows host and Linux container, and probably not cause any problems with case folding or line feeds, but again: why half ass it.

Containers are way more heavy on windows sadlyz that's because you first need a VM of linux to make them work

Do you do software development work?

Yeah, i do it mainly on Windows for various reasons and it's shit tbh

Some tools suck for windows, some doesn't exist at all, i need too many siftwares to mimic Linux functionality, i have to install dependencies manually using installers sometimes if i am lucky they are on Scoop(a package manager for winslop), mess with env variables every 3 seconds and i want to kms

I can't even use some C/C++ libraries (like ncurses 💔) and compilation documentations are always 3 times longer

    I imagine it might be a factor that windows is just more familiar to many people

    Does it really matter in a development enviroment? Like, yeah, it can cause issue for some devs the first few times they use it, but if you can't adapt to a new OS, can we really trust in your skills? At least, that's thinking

    A user in linux without admin rights is pretty limited in what they can do.

    Yeah, that's what i was thinking too, you can lock down Linux but then you would've to remove administrator rights which make it harder to develop stuff but if you don't remove them, it's easy as fuck to remove the stuff that locks you

    That's the most crazy story i have read and the best one probably

    Also, THIS is how you are supposed to meet people online not with dating apps, dating apps just suck and make you choose the most sexy "option" and maybe their interests maybe

    He even tried to wash it off with "but there is a setting to disable it, just navigate 32 sub menus and click toxic mode" and never addressed the fact that his software would hide the shit behind a "technicall issue" excuse

    I discovered about Lemmy and Piefed devs opinions and views which i not agree with¹, so i was thinking of using Mbin², i looked in to join mbin website and idk what to choose, there is a big instance which i want to avoid³ and idk if the smaller ones are stable, any suggestion?

    1 Piefed is also made with Python which isn't the fastest language and i hate reading python codebases lmao

    2 Please don't tell me that the devs are nazis or smth 😭

    3 joining a big instance kinda defeat the purpose of the fediverse tbh


    Perchance

    Soo, i was searching for a SearXNG alternative since it's an hassle to customize the UI, it's also slow and i didn't found much to be honest

    The only things i found is Websurfx which look like vibecoded (at least, the readme look like it was wrote by a clanker and in the contributions there is an AI agent)

    Do anyone have any suggestion?

    Edit: i'd like to not spend money on a search engine tbh...that's why i'd like to self-host or use a public instance

    Edit 2: i found out about those:

    https://github.com/Ahwxorg/LibreY (kinda dead tbh)

    https://git.bwaaa.monster/omnisearch (works but some engines don't)

    Edit 3: parentesis

    Edit 4: Degoog may be the solution, i am still open to other solutions tho

    So, i was thinking...they for sure will not allow you to use your face to verify multiple accounts (just like how you can't use your email or phone number to verify on multiple accounts) otherwise everyone would just use the same image to bypass the age verification so how do identical twins do? I am sure that AIs (and human operators too, tbf) will just guess that it's the same person

    Minecraft is easy to pirate...but why? Well to answer you: there is 0 effort to pirate it, download the client.jar from mojang official APIs (which is totally FREE) and run the jar without using any valid session ID, done! What...that's too easy, were is the catch? Well you can't have a skin, you can't play minecraft servers that don't allow un-authenticated users and anyone can use the same user without any password
    Is that really piracy? I mean i am using a free thing, not messing with microslop shit and servers - yes i did read mojang eula and no- it's not against it.
    So i wonder: can we not call it piracy? Dunno...i leave the words to y'all!

    Edit: i don't think it's piracy because when you buy minecraft they give you an account to login in their auth servers, but you don't even need to use the auth servers to access the game, just to use realms, access servers that don't allow non authenticated users etc etc

    Action and Stuff (called also AnS), is a marketplace addon that became popular soon as you know, they even got inspiration from a lot of Java mods, as results it got annoying having a community of a mod that give inspiration to AnS or a mod that has some similiar features, even if said mod came before AnS! I swear...just look at Hold My Items youtube comments! Luckly people are doing it less, but still... Action and Stuff was great because it made famous some concept but now it's annoyong doing something with similiar concept because their fans will just attack you

    Cross-social app (feddit.it)
     

    So, i was wondering if anyone know a mobile app that can communucate with other fediverse social other than Lemmy, right now i just found apps that let you search only lemmy instances but i would like to search cobtent from other places too! Like pixelfed etc etc with a single account (isn't that the point of the fediverse?). I know that by using my instance website i can do it but i'd like to have an app.
