I did this when I started to use Lemmy during the reddit protest, to explain the general concept of the fediverse to reddit refugees not used to decentralized platforms: https://imgur.com/a/fediverse-redditors-fiLOmI7
It’s probably not exactly what you’re looking for but could it be a start?
It’s not ready yet (preview state) but NexusMods is developing an app for managing all their mods: https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/NexusMods.App, for Linux they’re releasing both an appimage and a standard setup.
On one side, I’m one of those glad for people coming to Linux because Linux is truly fantastic and it can make your life easier on many things, I’m happy for them.
On the other side, I share your concerns, because everything that gets adopted by the masses is inevitably subject to enshittification, I would never want that to happen to Linux.
We should find a sweet middle-point tho I have no idea what that would be.
I surely hope they never will, no user program should ever be allowed to run at kernel level, that’s what malware does.
I personally avoid those kind of games, but those who won’t can dual-boot.
Not the one you’re asking but I’ve been dual-booting Windows and Linux on my gaming desktop for many years, every time a build a new PC, disabling “secure boot” AND “fast boot” in the BIOS is the very first thing I do and I never had problems (I play on Linux but I keep Windows for testing in case I want to report a bug).
Fast boot is even more troublesome, since it’s a Windows specific feature that allows it to not truly shutdown so it can startup faster later, but that can cause locks for other OS that won’t work correctly.
In theory, Linux should be able to support secure boot (not fast boot), but since that one too was made for Windows, there are cases in which it could cause problems, I will always disable it just to be on the safe side.
Do you really believe they don’t have backups? Especially since it seems selling content for AI training was their plan for quite a while?
Or that they didn’t make full backups a couple years ago before the protest, anticipating a lot of users would try to delete their comments?
I think the only way to truly delete anything from reddit would be living in EU and enforcing a GDPR request, but even in that case, I believe it would be very difficult to check they actually comply.
Why? It’s the point of Lemmy, being able to participate in communities regardless of where they’re hosted and where your account is registered.
Of all the titles you could choose …
The article is interesting in that it talks about pushing towards open versions of kernel modules, instead of legacy ones, and of much broader scope that the literal 2 lines you chose as title.
Why not keeping the original?
