Google was "cool" 2 decades ago... or before they combined both monetization (through ad) with power (through monopoly) they inexorably transformed EXACTLY to Microsoft the same way Facebook/Meta did the Google playbook.

Those huge tech corporations are pulled by the market to follow the same, sadly successful, strategy playbook and keep no uniqueness.

Google has been the new Microsoft for years already but through careful marketing consumers somehow believe they aren't.

Indeed, so still a good advice, thanks for sharing

Arise, ye prisoners of starvation!

Well they didn't "write" it, just formatted it, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Internationale

Takes literally minutes to try with 0 install and no risk for your data : https://distrosea.com/start/kubuntu-24.10-default/

I'm not saying you should enjoy it (even though I do, Debian stable with Plasma for a while now) but it's so convenient to give any distribution with any desktop environment a try that IMHO it's wrong not to spend few minutes and see what you might be missing.

I'd then buy bacon to eat the Brussels sprout, they aren't actually that bad, just stinky to boil.

If I were the dad I'd get tricked once... then keep the evil one and use it as weight comparison point for all others. I don't need to unwrap any. The light ones, if there are any, are the good ones. I'd do that while looking in her eyes grinning knowing how long this little ordeal took for her to make.

How about an Immich integration, e.g. a button that says "Share via my PixedFed account" or even just the icon that would then post it on your behalf?

So... actually (put on fedora hat) it's a GREAT way to learn!

What I do NOT recommend though is distro hopping with your data and your daily life setup. Namely the safest to learn is main system is stable, easy to setup and fix, you're comfortable with even if you are not "proud" to claim it on Lemmy BUT the weird stuff you do on the side, it's on a dedicate harddrive (ideally not even partition, just so that you can even mess that up) and you go LinuxFromScratch of whatever rock your boat knowing your data is safe and if you fuck up you can still go on with your day.

Neat, is there a way to share from Immich to Pixelfed?
