Why do you think they do? Logically think it through.

Market sharen and incumbent advantage. Ease of adoption (or appearance of). Ubiquity and lack of need to retain. Predatory behaviour by MS. Different priorities for users.

Unless you actually consider the real reasons why Windows is so widespread you'll never make a dent in it.

What happened with Unity in the end? Did they back down?

You can't expect me to believe there is a race of creatures living in well-ordered homes who spend all day making candy while their evil counterpart hides out in menacing fortresses that augur only destruction

Populism Updates @PopulismUpdates Tell me your most radical position that cannot be placed on the left-right political spectrum

Admiral Snaccbar @Chris Mench Serving shrimp with the tail still on when it's already mixed into something (pasta, rice, etc) is insane.

Hey all, I've not been putting as much time into Lemmy as I thought I would, so I'm requesting applications for new mods! There isn't really anything to do in terms of reactive moderation, there's almost never any reports etc, but a proactive approach to growing the community, encouraging posts, and all that sort of thing would be great.

Let me know below if you are interested!

Should have expected this

Just a reminder that reporting posts you don't like (or that you disagree with, or that are disagreeing with you) but that do not break any rules is a waste of my time and yours. Downvote and move on. Repeat offenders will be banned.

Jeremy Clarkson: Just been for a walk round the farm and I'm a bit alarmed by how few butterflies there are.

Something is afoot.

Danny Wallace: Diesel-smelling Top Gear host who threatened climate protestors misses butterflies.

Disco Inferno (lemmy.world)

I was told recently about a school that was shamed into changing its school motto.

The motto was "l hear, I see, I learn" Nothing wrong with that per se. Unfortunately the motto was in Latin, and the Latin for "l hear, I see, I learn" is "audio, video, disco

What the f ck that's the best school motto ever change it back

copperbadge Obserwuj

Your yearly reminder that "l learn through suffering" can be translated into Latin as "Disco Inferno"

I've got to be honest that picture is just a pub with books.

Its estimated that spam consumes more than 33 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity every year, the same amount as 2.4 million homes. It also produces the same amount of green house gas(GHG) emissions as 3.1 million passenger cars.

60s, 70s and 80s...people were free.

Hmm, straight white males were free. Everyone else, not so much.

Interestingly, these used to be called 'jokes' before memes existed.

The hilarious thing is you can't post from Sync yet, only comment, so for every post about Sync someone had to use their browser or another app to post it.

All Lemmy instances are test environments right now. It's just that lemmy.world is being tested the hardest.
