How has it been like 20 years since Slashdot was relevant, and we’re still getting the same, “LOL install Linux instead” comments?
Like, I’ve been using and loving Linux since the late '90. But damn, I’m expecting to see “Micro$oft” in these comments any moment.
Put a large collection of albums into your “Library”.
Now try to pull up a list of a single artist’s albums within your Library.
The “Library” management is so remedial that it’s basically a joke. It can’t measure up to iTunes from 20 years ago. It’s completely unusable for a serious music collection.
It may be fine for people that just listen to singles and playlists, but every other music service can do that too, while also offering complete functionality elsewhere.
YouTube Music is a half-baked, half-complete product. It’s inexplicable that it exists when they literally just needed to do nothing but rebrand Google Play Music.
YouTube Music is the enshitttified version of Google Play Music.
Apple Maps + CarPlay is so much better than Google Maps + Android Auto that the latter is embarrassing.
I say this as someone that has owned Android phones since the very beginning (HTC Dream/T-Mobile G1).
Game devs: “No thanks, we’re waiving the fees by using a different engine.”
For the last X number of years, I’ve listened to people proclaim how Microsoft has changed, they’re not the '90s Microsoft anymore. They make things open source! They’re putting Linux in Windows now instead of trying to murder Linux! They’re not doing Internet Explorer things anymore! You old Slashdot readers are stuck in the past!
'90s Microsoft sends their regards.
Linus criticizing Steve on “proper journalistic practices” shows an incredible lack of self-awareness.
My Linux from Scratch install. It was built by a moron.
Isn’t like all of Lemmy already there?

Does Slashdot still have value? I read Slashdot way back in the '90s and early '00s.
Facebook collects all this data, yet Threads still thinks someone like me (who listens to extremely harsh underground music) wants to read posts from J-Lo.
This is funny, because I literally said “good!” when I read the post title. So I’m right there with you.
Use Firefox.
Support Firefox.
Using alternative Chromium based browsers is not it.
Both browsers are equally capable of doing their primary job, which is to download Firefox.
Ugh. I’ve been a Debian (and derivatives) user since the late '90s, and you’re unlocking memories of what chased me away from Red Hat distros back then.
Part of my Reddit exodus plan was to get serious about my RSS setup.
I’ve settled on:
I may experiment with some replacements for rss-proxy, as I’ve run into a couple sites it doesn’t scrape well, but FreshRSS and FiveFilters have been smashing successes.
Capitalism: “No.”
