I adore Void; it’s been my daily driver for about 5-6 years now. Simple, fast, easy to configure, and the Void Handbook does a great job of detailing Void-specific items that you wouldn’t necessarily be able to find in the Arch Wiki, for example.

the package manager’s command to install stuff is kinda hard to remember but does its job well

xbps is incredible and very fast, but if you’re having trouble remembering the commands or just don’t want to have to type the chain, I’d recommend looking at vpm. It’s a very apt-like way to manage it e.g. vpm update vs xbps-install -Su and vpm search vs xbps-query -Rs

It’s great to see AES countries beginning to adopt Linux and FOSS, even if it’s approached less from an ideological standpoint of FOSS == socialism and more from staying away from proprietary Western technology (Microsoft, Apple). If it’s solely the latter, that’s still the correct course of action.

“What’s happening to Russian open-source developers gave a warning sign to Chinese developers,” one user commented on knowledge-sharing website Zhihu.com, referring to many software makers being blocked from the open-source community just because they are Russian or not supporting Ukraine. “Software without borders is just a dream that will never come true, and China needs to build its own open-source community.” … “This new version signifies that we have gained the ability to lead the OS’ development by ourselves,” Zhu said. “I hope more users will try our new version and give us feedback.”

This is great to hear!

Raddle is the distillation of the anarchist into the most concentrated form of brain-wormed online anarkiddie that spews the most toxic, vile, and backwards bullshit seen in any realm of “leftism”.

Thank fuck they’re contained in their echo chamber.

And we’re the ones who want to exist in self-affirming spaces? Liberals can’t see the hypocrisy of decrying the far-right yet acting exactly like them.

Even more reason to use Linux now 😎

For Matrix, I’d recommend conduit over synapse, with the expectation that all of synapse’s features haven’t yet been added (most notably support for spaces, which may or may not be a dealbreaker).

It’s incredibly easy to set-up and very lightweight. I never self-hosted synapse due to how resource-heavy it is, and constantly had issues with dendrite racking up resources as well.conduit has honestly been the easiest thing I’ve self-hosted.

Yes, both are run by the devs who are of course communists. These were the two original lemmy instances: lemmy.ml was the “standard” flagship to show what lemmy was capable of, while lemmygrad was the communist space

Unfortunately the more invested and “hardcore” Redditors still tend to be libertarians, although a lot of run-of-the-mill liberals are now included in that group.

So what happens when you get tons of them leaving a platform en masse? They’ll bring their reactionary toxicity with them, claiming “no hatred” or “bigotry-free”, while enabling pro-rulling class rhetoric and blanket-banning/defederating with communists. At least this split on Mastodon isn’t as heavy as it was already filled with a lot of “leftists”, and as there aren’t really any explicitly ML instances available, a lot of communists are intermingled in left-leaning spaces.

Here though? They can push all their ire onto lemmygrad.ml, alienating a pretty big chunk users if they defederate, even worse if they eventually do so with lemmy.ml given the admin crossover.
