That is only maintained due to the new operating system being a new shell placed on top of the countless older shells and some new small features that rely on the newest most fragile thing they added with the shell

I heard some call it the "painting over rust" method, and they're maintaining the most used and by some organisations the most relied on operating system in the world

Well first they support file uploads, second I feel like everyone I ever met from this instance was nice to everyone (sure that can be because it's smaller but it also has less controversies (i.e. what the dude I was replying to, the lemmy.world blocking us) due to the overall nature of this instance)

Went here for the file uploads, stayed for the community, that's what I can personally say

I'd suggest the switch for you

Lol, for me it was similar, I had a few things I didn't like about lemm.ee so I ditched my account there and went here by accident (well just by searchimg and it fulfilling all my needs and a ton more things), ended up liking this instance a ton so it became my daily driver

Ah, don't you just love when (a part of) the land of freedom advertises propaganda (or censors unwanted ideas more appropriately) against a minority from the early age

Doesn't even remotely resemble anything else /s

How did you make firefox look like that, or is it anything else?

I am from there and I have to agree with him on the dot, every bigger (like 250 residents min) random village has a train station here

Except not since you would have to replicate your current life to the smallest thing imaginable, and if you didn't it would cause a butterfly effect meaning you probably wouldn't get this opportunity anymore

And then there are some cough some of my classmates cough that barely know how to save a word document to a different location other than the default documents folder or how to full screen a presentation quickly (i.e. not having to go to that tab and then clicking full screen, the faster way just just to click F12 (idk rn if that's the correct one) or the shortcut in bottom right)

I could never imagine them working out how to put files on a CD, bet they don't know how an optical drive looks like, and funniest thing is, every singe one that had problems like this was an iPhone user, just shows how technologically uneducated the average iPhone user is (as you can guess I do not live in the US, and not like I live in a wealthy country, I do still live in Europe though)

But I wanted to do the opposite cmon bro

[–] ziixe 4 points 2 years ago

Exactly, I have never seen anyone actually talk about it except here

Yeah, and then run a android emulator inside that and then use tik tok, reminds me of that attempt to run old Mac os on a Wii since they're but PowerPC based, but it ended in a ton of conversions and it taking like 20 mins to click something, but it won't be that bad probably

Gonna mess with it once I get a new phone tho, can't now since it's filled with crap

Honestly we probably can just somehow shove Linux components like flatpak and other stuff like the terminal into android, make them apks somehow so they can work whenever

Of course this would be hard AF to do but I just want to run tik tok in a sealed off VM using flatseal goddamnit (I don't trust it with my phone but I want to access the videos on it)
