lemm.ee went down on 30/05/25. I've moved to - lemmy.zip/u/clot27

  • I think most people here dont even use PCs, smartphones are used a lot more than that. And those who use PCs, a majority of them use old hardware forcing them to find alternative operating system (I have experienced this personally and has installed mint on PCs of 6-7 peoples like that). I think old hardware is what pushing them to use linux. Moreover, most geeks use either mac or linux until forced by the company to use windows. Its definitely not a regional thing, as far as reputation is concerned, for normal people its just like windows like people who want to edit files, pp presentations, excel sheets, etc all of it is same as windows due to awesome tools like libreoffice. What else people need mostly? linux GUI has evolved enough to help them for all "normal" use cases, otherwise internet is always there. I think it will continue to grow as a result of recent microsoft F ups and as people become aware.

  • Yea (atleast we lead in something positive now)

  • 15% here

  • As a user for almost half a decade I can confirm this button has always been there, and I have witnessed multiple private groups getting banned upon reporting

  • Bluetooth should be killed

  • Blame all of it on left, they fucked up badly

  • Mastodon's original app is just trash Threads are completely unreadable, it should be like that of X

  • Ok conspiracy theorist signal fan

  • And the post is about telegram alternative?

  • Should've been me (I am 6+)

  • Good

  • Signal can't do shit Canit sync messages b/w devices seamlessly? Doe it have unlimited storage? Channels? Isn't upload size limit 100mb? Telegram has 4gb. Advance Bots? Good Ui/Ux? High quality stickers? Big public groups? Mini apps? Lol, signal is NOT an alternative to telegram as a whole, it can only partly replace its messaging functionality

  • None Signal is shit

  • Signal fans won't agree, but I do

  • Signal fans being edgy cool kids

  • Yes, but it's not it's only functionality, unlike signal. Also how is durovs arrest can be justified by saying "telegram aint e2ee"? Signal bros are something else.

  • Is that the point here? Telegram is not a messaging app, it have that functionality but it does not revolve around that. And there is e2ee if you enable it. Thanks
