not everything [Stalin] did was bad
Some of Hitler's buildings are good enough to still be in use.
If that's what a Westerner does to dissent, imagine China.
"whataboutism is effective propaganda". No, it's a reminder to address the actual argument, not talk about America lynching negroes.

Obviously. On PC, Steam alone takes 30%. Everything she gets though? Likely used for something horrible.
The main maintainer of this instance and PrivacyGuides, Jonah, was last active on reddit just days ago, but a year ago on Lemmy. Clearly it's not a priority for him.
By the way, it's the same website that scrubbed the section on alternatives to the big tech social networks like Twitter and Reddit, making the wild claim that there's no practical difference between them and the alternatives.

Two of the reasons I'd never use it. The other is not wanting to support the Google monopoly.
Linux is self-serving for them because it's the only way to not have to pay a third-party for licensing the OS. Enjoying the side effects of that is still fine though.

All that with no encryption at all.
