does anyone actually care about AMAs? I thought they were glorified advertising lol. Also that's a tough sell, what instance would you point them to, and how would you convince them they'd get good PR?

Looks like they got their priorities right

We shall not stop until all the sources have been opened!

FOSS. I don't pirate at all, it's a security nightmare. If I were to, it'd be heavily sandboxed and definitely not anything important to my day-to-day. It's just not sustainable or ethical, not to mention extremely inconvenient. I just pirate some movies occasionally.

The fun part of the fedi is seeing the instance drama. Where before everyone would just yell at the centralized platform corporation, and now we get to yell at the people directly who are trying to filter us out! Usually for good reason.

So I also asked what actually situation do you intend to do long form writing where you can't just reach a laptop/tablet. I'm confused on what the use case is here. If you plan on writing for an hour or something, then surely you would've planned ahead and brought something with you. Not to mention phone is seriously going to hamper your wpms.

The buttons are really small, especially with the size of smartphone screens. That's an even bigger problem when you consider the fact your thumb will be fat fingering the buttons, or the side of your thumb will rub up against unintended buttons. Part of why typing in portrait is bearable is the heavy use of autocorrect that basically carries the experience.

You mentioned a tablet in your post which baffles me. Because if you're open to something that large, you can simply just get a foldable keyboard attachment, or get something like a regular 13" laptop which most people opt into. Any situation you want to long form type, you're going to be sitting somewhere for awhile, which at that point just bring a keyboard. It makes no sense not to. Phone texting is usually short bursts.

In what situation do you have the time to type extended amounts of time, but are unable to have a backpack/suitcase/etc that had a laptop/tablet with a keyboard. What is the use case here where you'd have to type long form on mobile?

Well you probably won't interact while gaming anyways. Little billy won't get attention when you're on a dark souls boss.

For me, it's Genshin Impact that keeps my Windows install around. Anti cheat stuff is still bullshit.

The great thing about Lemmy is that you can pop up your own instance to be pro or anti anything you want, and no one can stop you (except your VPS provider). Why do they ignore this and focus on personal attacks, when their project is giving power to those who may disagree with them.

Everyone knows there's only capitalism and evil communism. The cavemen were not enlightened to realize they should give all their hunting and gathering to their village leader while only being allowed scraps from their efforts.
