Hello everybody! I was thinking of switching from GNOME to KDE Plasma on my laptop. The main things keeping me from switching are

  • Touchpad Gestures
  • Dynamic Workspaces

Since I have a pretty beefy machine, dynamic workspaces are more an optional than anything but if there's something unnegotiable to me, especially for a laptop experience, is the touchpad experience which must me at least viable. So what has been your experience? Please I need your opinion

We've known the side effects of social media for decades but we're still doing nothing...

I'm a gen zer and I would absolutely freak out. I'd rather not going out rather than being spied 24/7 by my parents. Seriously, this is the best way to kill trust between children and their parents. Now even the social relationship between parents and children has to be extremely toxic and anxiogenic as a basic minimum requirement

I shot this pic with my phone of the time, which was an Oppo A74.

The pic is unedited. What do you think?

Hello everybody. I'm planning to get my first camera body and lenses but I'm not quite sure on what lensens to get. I think I'll get a LUMIX DMC-GF1 which I can find for fairly cheap prices so I can spend most of the money for some good lenses.

What lenses would you recommend me buying? Is there some kind of "general lenses" I can use without having to switch them according to situations? I'm very new and confused by all the technical terms and stuff

Most of the times either says complete bullshit or vague and unprecise things so be careful

They've reached such an economic power that now they just want to be as profitable as possible, crushing any kind of competition of popular pro-user participation while profiting over our data and content

WE, the users, made them able to do so, giving them economic and sometime even geopolitical power. But WE still determine whether they can exist or not man, we still have the power to bring them down. It's time to take back what's ours!

I'll go straight to the point:

  • Piracy is useful to bypass regional frontiers and access to censored content
  • Piracy is helpful to watch content without supporting it if you consider it not worth of it
  • Piracy might be helpful for content preservation and survival
  • Piracy is useful to ACTUALLY evaluate whether to spend money on some digital content or not
  • Piracy is sometimes the only way to actually own DRM-protected content

It's time to teach them we can actually build a free, open source and popular alternative to their dystopian monopoly!

Hello everybody! I'm a student who wants to start building android apps, but i'm noticing that android development is so structured and overcomplicated to learn that i'm loosing any hope. Could anybody of you explain me the basics? I'm not talking about code, but how to manage the IDE, what do we have to learn etc. Any advice would be highly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Which one would you recommend? I'm currently on the default instance but I want to support smaller instances for the sake of decentralization

EDIT: I'm noticing a lot of you guys are telling me about Lemmy instances. That's not what I'm looking for! I'm looking for a Matrix Chat server!

Still, I will take that Lemmy instances in serious consideration. Thanks!

Damn I made a post in the [email protected] complaining about Battle Royale games and I'm happy to notice that posts on Lemmy now have actual engagement!

Actually even more than all the posts i've made on reddit since there's no algorithm meant to close us in fucking echo-chambers

I hate battle royale games. Every time I play them i get anxious and nervous, I cant take it anymore

I have played Apex Legends since it came out and I have about 900h between both steam and origin (mostly played during covid).

Since I stopped playing this rage games I feel much better

Tell me what you think of battle royale games in the comments if you want

Hello everybody! I'm a student living and studying in south Italy. As you might already know, there have been a few protests made by Ultima Generazione (Brutally translated: Last Generation) which have been object of debate and disputes (and mostly critiques)

I'm afraid that Italian politicians are now exploiting these protests to indoctrinate people into hating environmentalism. In my personal experience, I've seen plenty of people who used to support environmentalist protests starting to, I wouldn't say hate, but at least distancing themselves from the environmentalist cause (regardless of the age)

Know here's the question: Have there been similar protests in your country? What about the reaction of the media and the public?

EDIT: i put a random pic of Fridays for Future and Extintion Rebellion militants helping with the flood in Emilia Romagna
