maybe your “evidence” was a load of crap and they knew it

social credit has never been a thing in china. i’ve lived there.

leave it to liberals to clap like seals over well-put disinformation

if you ever talked to anyone from china you’d know that this asshole is completely lying about the social credit thing (among others)

ah the good ol’ “i can’t make a choice so Everybody Sucks™ i am very smart and superior” intellectual suicide

wtf you should actually be banned for this

i was just kidding guys!!

cool platitude bro

you’ve never actually thought about this at all have you?

congratulations you just posted the single dumbest thing ever posted on this site

here’s your reward

we fucking said this would happen and this dumb asshole refused to defederate on the flagship instance anyway

Yeah, it’s only comprised of millions and supported by the majority of Chinese people who, according to you white savior liberals, are too stupid and brainwashed to know better.

You can’t even imagine that someone might not be mindlessly frothing in rage over everything China does isn’t a paid Chinese shill. Fuck off, you xenophobic weirdo.

i know exactly what you meant, i just think you’re completely full of it.

nothing will ever satisfy you people because you’ve already made up your minds about being xenophobic weirdos

they could save the entire planet from an asteroid strike and you’d still probably go “okay but they only did it for show”

funny ‘cause when i was in china there was winnie the pooh merch in like every fuckin’ store

you’re full of shit and you just parrot clickbait youtube talking points instead of doing any actual research, but you’re named after some libertarian right shit so i guess that tracks

Yeah, they continue to add new features that weren’t present in KDE 3 too, in a manner that remains true to KDE 3’s iconic look and feel. They post about these new features on their Mastodon, and write in depth about them in their release notes.

They also port and maintain old community-made themes, mods, and applications as official packages, which is something I really appreciate even though I didn’t use it back then.

My favorite thing about using *Nix and FOSS in general is that we can not only preserve it’s history through forks, but immortalize it. If you want to keep the experience and workflow you enjoy, you simply can. Using Linux with Trinity is like having Windows XP but it’s still receiving (and will for the foreseeable future) actually good feature updates, security updates, bugfixes, and access to current software and hardware.

• I’m really not sure what they’re planning for Wayland at the moment (if anything), but one of the plus sides is that it isn’t too dependent on it’s default window manager, and I was even able to run most parts of it via XWayland under Wayfire with only a handful of issues that probably wouldn’t be too hard to resolve in the future (e.g. multiple desktops on kdesktop).

• Initially, I suppose it was just to provide an option for people who weren’t happy with KDE 4. These days, I’d consider the main benefits to be a nice way to have an old school UX for those who prefer that, and excellent performance on aging hardware. (In some ways the UX still outdoes KDE 5/6 IMO, such as TDE’s version of Konqueror being a much more capable file manager than the current versions, or the highly configurable power manager.)

• It uses a fork of Qt3, TQt.

• This will vary from distro to distro, but I have it using just a little over 100 MB of RAM on a cold boot with MX on my ThinkPad X200T, and practically no idle CPU usage.

trinity because it’s lighter than almost everything else while having more features than almost everything else

🤓

Trinity is criminally underrated. Compared to modern lightweight desktop environments (XFCE, MATE, LXQt, etc.), it’s far more feature-complete and in spite of that it manages to run lighter than any of them.

No, having an account won’t give you insight, but what I’m getting at is that most of us are here to get away from the glaring flaws of corporate social media. Obviously I want as many people as possible to join the Fediverse, and I don’t see how advocating for or at the very least normalizing more the exact kind of corporate-controlled platforms that drove most of us here is going to help that.

What’s with Lemmy users doing free advertising for corporate social media like this? You’re already here, so you should know better, right?
