Alternate title: The Tech Burnout

[-] 30p87@feddit.org 7 points 1 week ago

Hey twin, lol

[-] rimjob_rainer@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 week ago

This is 100% me

[-] billwashere@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Yes. I like this way better than “tech conservative “

Well except for the Arch part. I’m not a masochist.

[-] LGTM@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 week ago

Currently at the crossroads from newborn paranoid into either this or tech paranoid, it's so joever

"Has hundreds of messaging apps their friends won't use."

Got caught.

[-] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 18 points 1 week ago

Hey, someone in the friend group has to test the apps ahead of time for when they all inevitably wake up and delete Discord, I can guide them to matrix or SimpleX! This is exactly how it will go right?

Guys... where'd you go?

[-] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 1 points 1 week ago

Guilded

You know the roblox chat app

[-] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 1 points 1 week ago

Hi do you need new friends who have the same 100 messaging apps ?

Fluffychat gang

[-] JovialSodium@lemmy.sdf.org 23 points 1 week ago

I live between the tech conservative and tech paranoid with a splash of distro hopping.

[-] Engywuck@lemm.ee 9 points 1 week ago

Same, but I stay on Arch btw.

[-] RandomVideos@programming.dev 22 points 1 week ago

I cant believe i have been called a conservative

[-] 30p87@feddit.org 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I think we're all in between conservative and newborn paranoid ... for me, I love alpha/nightly, which LW doesn't have, so FF it is. But I cope by telling myself that a properly configured FF is just as good as LW. And Signal is better than needing to use WhatsApp with family members.

[-] muhyb@programming.dev 6 points 1 week ago

Yeah, I guess so. The slippery slope is real though.

[-] Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de 17 points 1 week ago

Someone who even it broke couldn't fix it because it's an Apple.

TempleOS is the one true legitimate operating system

[-] whotookkarl@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

It is definitely one of the operating systems

[-] Chozo@fedia.io 7 points 1 week ago

This meme is so private that it doesn't even show up on Mbin.

[-] billwashere@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

I’m not sure I like being labeled “conservative”…

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 week ago

Conservative doesn't mean braindead.

It means keeping things the way they are. Like conserving the rain forest.

[-] billwashere@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Oh I know this in my head. It’s the negative connotation that’s in my heart that’s the problem.

Years ago, when Telegram was relatively fresh, I convinced most of my friends and acquaintances to use it. I don't know how I did it, but now that I want to get away from Telegram, I wish I could do it again.

[-] neox_@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

The FSF member does not use libreboot anymore (not entirely free on some boards for a while now). See GNU Boot!

Haha good meme. I'm a tech conservative for sure!

I use Mint btw

[-] UnfortunateShort@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Guilty of being Ricer. To answer the questionmakrs, I decided on Brave (again) recently, although in terms of theming, Firefox definitely offers more.

[-] Hafty@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I’m firmly tech conservative, but I love MKBHD videos and my iPhone.

[-] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 4 points 1 week ago

This is the most accurate mem I've ever seen

I'm the Tech Conservative with an iPhone, uses the Fedora Distro as my ride or die at the moment! I feel pretty balanced...Though, I do have a desire to hop to other distros for a while before going back to where it all started: Ubuntu. Ubuntu started my passion for Linux; opened my world to FOSS, issues with Privacy, and viewing most companies with neutrality, unless they've shown their dark side!

[-] dicksteele@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

Are you me? This is my tech journey also, including fedora on desktop and laptop, iPhone without any upgrades for last 3 years.

[-] LostWanderer@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 week ago

I might be if you started on Android but then transitioned to iPhone 15+ and iOS after Google started to cram too much LLM Bullshit into Android. Otherwise, I had been a Windows person first, before I couldn't tolerate Microsoft's BS any longer. I should've left some more tech history in there, but this meme is certainly my current self!

[-] dicksteele@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

I think I got the first iPhone 3G. Then I moved to android and my last android phone was google pixel 3. Changed to iPhone 13 and been with that ever since. Similar tech history for sure.
