[β] WheatleyInc@lemmy.world 10 points 3 years ago (6 children) Microsoft stinks, I use Windows because I'm lazy. MAC is so much worse though, why have I never heard a Linux user criticize MAC? permalink fedilink source hideshow 12 child comments replies: [β] gamey@feddit.rocks 5 points 3 years ago Most of us used Windows before and a Mac is a lot closer to Unix (many Terminal applications and stuff work well) but from a usability standpoint the completely walled garden is awful and bashing Apple is one of my favorite hoppies, iOS and their hardware are just even better attack surfaces and I like low hanging fruits! permalink fedilink source parent [β] nightmareofahorse@programming.dev 4 points 3 years ago (1 child) Id wager few have used a Mac compared to Windows. Windows was always more ubiquitous, and its usually the default in work and school settings so it has a lot more chances to disappoint permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] shalva97@lemmy.sdfeu.org 2 points 3 years ago Exactly. During my 4 years in University I have not even seen Mac from far. Most of the computers were cheap Dell mini pc and the rest was desktop computers.

Personally, I prefer using really YouTube. I like having the record of what I watched on my account and being able to interact with things like the "like" button and comments, or add it to my Watch Later playlist. So I'm never going to intentionally seek out Piped. But that doesn't mean the bot is bad. It's doing a good job for people who do prefer that site of making it easy for them. And I don't see anything wrong with that. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] KrisND@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago* I called it a bad bot because it's become annoying, I strictly only use NewPipe on mobile because I like the features. I see this as nothing more than mass advertising with a bot to auto correct ppl. However, with the bots I've seen here both piped.video and piped.yt do not work on my desktop or mobile devices, I have tried troubleshooting it but it's not worth too much time when I can just view the direct YT using adblock and still not have any issues. There is no reason the website should require me to turn off protections or other things if my current settings work on YouTube already. It is also annoying that I have bots turned off in my settings and for some reason this bot that goes around making messages is the only one I see anywhere. permalink fedilink source parent [β] cooopsspace@infosec.pub -5 points 3 years ago (1 child) Because Mac is tonnes better than windows still despite inflated hardware costs. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] shalva97@lemmy.sdfeu.org 0 points 3 years ago How Mac is better?
