A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

THANK YOU. I'm someone who loves Linux and daily drives it, but it feels like Lemmy's userbase is just those who moved from r/linuxmasterrace who don't understand that just because Linux doesn't cost you any dollars, doesn't mean it doesn't cost time, time which people just may not have.
Yep! Every OS requires the user to pay something, and that's either money or time - or a certain amount of tolerance for creepiness.
I beg to differ. Fedora Linux worked out of the box on my current Dell laptop, on the previous (Acer) laptop, and the previous pc too (I think it was a Lenovo). No problems whatsoever.
Meanwhile, it took multiple hours to disable the various ads, pulp news, and trackers on the Windows pc that I use for work.
