Dual boot is the way for right now. Proton is huge, but there are still a good number of games with compatibility issues or rootkit anticheats. Personally I advise steering clear of the latter, but that's neither here nor there.
I use CachyOS as my daily driver and booted up the Windows partition maybe 3 times since setting this up back in February (and most of those times were just to play REPO because Elgato hardware with dual input and output has serious issues with Linux, but I've sorted that out now with a workaround)
Let's add a 4th person in there, someone who thinks they're helping by doing nothing but yelling that the fire isn't allowed to burn things
This is absolutely one of the reasons they're pushing this garbage so hard. It's VERY easy to manipulate as a propaganda tool.
You can already see that most of these tools lean right because their userbase does - leftists don't touch this garbage because of numerous ethical concerns as-is. Add more astroturfing on top of that, and now it's just a straight up automated fascist mouthpiece.
I'm just using Nextcloud's Memories app. I prefer to keep my photo backups in the same place as everything else in my cloud storage anyway, so it works nicely
Of course it's right-wing, lemmy.world is literally just a liberal hub LOL, its no different than reddit's awful default subs.
I've been using Magic Earth for navigation, it's not FOSS but still has a lot of strong vouches in these sorts of communities, I believe their privacy policy has been thoroughly vetted if I recall. Works great and does what it needs to do.
For Gmail, I highly recommend Tuta, fantastic service. Paid plans are very affordable. The only thing I wish their client had was more in-depth rule customization but I may just be stupid. Admittedly setting up email forwarding from my gmail accounts has made me a bit lazy in fully switching over every single account from gmail to a tuta address, but I'm getting there.
Yeah true. It's generally better from what I've seen but nazi chuds really are everywhere.
They're gonna tell us to all vote for Gavin Newsom 💀
Yep, and I hate that because I want to support the artists and mostly listen to more obscure shit these days. Plus bandcamp is owned by Amazon I believe so even though the artists get more out of it, there's still a Bezos tax.
Then there's figuring out how to stream it remotely while driving or whatever. It's a whole thing.
I do genuinely really like Tidal so far, but I'm not familiar with their company's political stances or anything, and of course it's not FOSS at all. Spotify is dead to me though.
The Christian nationalist fascists love Israel not just because of their warmongering, genocide, and apartheid, but also because they think its existence keeps Jewish people off in their own country away from everyone else.
It sounds contradictory, but the vast majority of support for Israel is literally rooted in antisemitism.
Liberalism is a right-wing ideology, full stop.
I can definitely see that. I'm not really too familiar with this space of games so I can't speak on it much, but it does feel like a passion project, and that's not a bad thing.
Every day I wake up praying to read the news that someone did the funniest thing to this nazi fuck. I'll settle for an arrest though.
To be fair, the vast majority of people actually using AI bullshit align with the right, so these LLMs are going to inherit that bias.
The fascists are definitely astroturfing them too, no doubt, but the userbase as a whole for this tech isn't great, because right-wingers don't care about the ethical issues with it.
I just got a 3 day ban for saying that it's everyone's civic duty to doxx anyone they know involved in this current administration's nazi bullshit.
I still stand by that, and as soon as the ban clears I'm going to be wiping my account and closing it for good. Fuck that place.
Seriously. They donated millions to the trump campaign and barely pay artists pennies.
The music space is one of the biggest things we're lacking platforms for right now for sure. I've shifted over to Tidal for the time being, but I swear I'm just tempted to go back to local files at this point.
It's actually so refreshing seeing upvoted comments here with the correct take, whereas the chuds would be all over this on the other site
Fuck JKR and everything she stands for
I didn't pay for any Google bullshit and barely use anything of theirs these days. I paid for the hardware. There are literally full custom roms that sandbox and/or disable their junk
