I don't know what Rust is but glad to see anyone leave X or Facebook. There is a swimming pool at the local military base where my son wants a job as a lifeguard, but to find out when they are hiring, you have to go to their Facebook page. A government entity that requires you to sign into Facebook to see what they offer and when they are hiring.

Rust is a programming language.

Rust is the stuff metal gets

No. Rust is a multiplayer map featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Fuck you and have a nice day.

[-] varjen@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

I knew what it was but clicked anyways.

[-] busyvar@piaille.fr 2 points 5 days ago

@skisnow @neme nice try but we can see link target in thumbnail 😝

[-] skisnow@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 days ago

Darn. Problem with the Fediverse is you don’t know how things will render on other people’s clients.

I'm happy with doing so just so I can see comments without signing in again. I do believe social media was geting too highly censored, and I dont trust the government to decide what to censor.

But you cant call yourself the "town square of the internet" while hiding things from people you cant monetize.

[-] comfy@lemmy.ml 11 points 6 days ago

Yep. Twitter and Discord are the two most annoying walled gardens I can think of when it comes to projects (like FOSS dev).

[-] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Good news, it was mostly private for profit entities doing the censorship

[-] KillTheMule@programming.dev 12 points 5 days ago

I wasn't on X, but now I've created a mastodon account :)

[-] xav@programming.dev 1 points 4 days ago

You've managed to create a 2+years old account, congrats

[-] KillTheMule@programming.dev 1 points 4 days ago

Huh? I might be misunderstanding something (maybe a joke, even!), but this is my lemmy account, that's kinda older indeed. How would that be connected to my mastodon account?

[-] xav@programming.dev 1 points 4 days ago

Eh. I mixed them. My bad.

Oh nyoooo, Rust is woke

  • Lunduke (probably)

He crapped on Debian for this reason too. & for some reason people think he's a journalist.

Also will Pleroma & Akkoma get any love & I also hope they create a Matrix room as well

I really liked his "Linux sucks" presentations when I watched them many years ago, but I didn't know anything about him beyond that. Then some time last year I saw that he made another one, and I decided to watch it mainly for nostalgia, and I was shocked to see so many points about how linux companies are woke, something about opensuse firing anyone who was right-wing and redhat doing some white shaming move or something. I paused, checked his actual channel and holy shit. More than 90% was anti-woke "journalism", and has been for years now. I was severely disappointed.

Niccolò, KDE developer, made a video about Bryan's... everything. It's revolting. People still bringing up his stuff must be either unaware and thus should be informed, or they're complicit. Having talked to a few, I've noticed it's usually the latter.

[-] AccountMaker@slrpnk.net 2 points 5 days ago

Just finished watching it, and honestly that's the idea I got after those red flags that jumpscared me when I was watching that linux sucks video. I think I watched them up until 2018, and I remember finding them entertaining and they always ended on a postive note, but I knew absolutely nothing about Lunduke apart from those 4 or 5 videos, that's why I was so shocked to find out that he's a generic right wing parrot.

As a sidenote, Niccolò seems like a really cool guy. Thanks for sharing the video, I subbed

[-] mke@programming.dev 2 points 3 days ago

Glad you liked Nicco and found it informative. I think his takes are usually grounded, and his software development background helps. I certainly like him a lot better than most tech influencers, if he even counts as one.

[-] Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 6 days ago

something about opensuse firing anyone who was right-wing

I knew my OS of choice was awesome but damn. 💗

[-] MITM0@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago

His "Linux Sucks" series was also rage-bait, He's a shill & lacks morals & attacks any FOSS projects for not being on the side of politics that he is in.

Most of the FOSS outlets have outright banned him & his community from interacting since he's a menace

Good. No one with any sense still uses that site.

[-] TypicalHog@lemm.ee 5 points 5 days ago

That's crazy.

[-] veer66@mstdn.in.th 5 points 6 days ago

@neme After reading the replies on this post on X, I realized that leaving X is definitely a good idea.
