It came with either Windows 2000 or XP.

Feel free to join Ukraine as a voluntary fighter. Many have done so. Or keep spouting shit here about others. Put your money where your mouth is, Sir Feckless.

Maybe my client doesn’t care about mods (Sync for Lemmy). Otherwise maybe mod removal is just for the mods instace. Im on Sopuli.xyz

It wasn’t a mod. You’re just at -17 vote count because what you said was moronic.

I have my client settings at not to hide, just collapse.

It’s a good start 💁‍♂️

It’s the eu parlament elections, not our own. Our own is still in the hands of a centre-right party, in a coalition with shitty far right party (because they needed a majority, and the typical centrist party decided to not participate).

On the bright side, that far right party is fast losing support.

Studies show that ligatures improve readability, but I acknowledge that it’s likely untrue for outliers.

Do you also get surprised when you backspace a tab and suddenly it removes more whitespace than 1 characters worth?

Or did you learn it fast and really never think about it?

I think it’s more a “getting used to” thing, that once learned, you don’t think about, but it makes things more readable.

I mean, we read code more than we write it. You just vomitted over something that increases readability. Maybe a time for a rethink?

I think there’s a difference between distributed and decentralised. But apart from that 👍

The great majority of developers never contribute, that’s a false expectation. Majority of programmers work in the private sector and use local git hosts/solutions instead of GitHub.

Again, expecting those devs to not use git because of one hoster, is a ludicrous idea in itself.

It hasn’t. There are literally thousands and thousands of developers using Git daily without having nothing to do with GitHub.

You are entitled to your opinion, but that’s a fact. What MS does or doesn’t, with GitHub, has no effect on these devs. You can see how egregious it is to read a random person sayint we should stop using a certain tool, because Walmart also uses it? Jeesh.

I self-host GitBucket, and honestly your reasoning behind giving up arguably the best version control application, just because of one hosting site, is downright ludicrous.

Nah, they are average human beings

That’s insulting? Quite civil words, compared to the words the community he is describing, use in that thread.

There was a lot of shitty comments by people who just bashed, but not all.

I’m not seeing the “insulting users of the community” point you stated OP, could you clarify? I did see one snarky response to a dude calling him an asshole, and I also saw posts stating he shouldn’t be a mod, and generally very hostile responsens. Those in mind, I think his output was quite civil even though I disagree with his reasoning and opinion to large degree.

This feels like a witchhunt to me, and I for one don’t think a volunteer moderators job should be in question if he has a hot take on something. He’s just keeping the spam etc. clean, he’s allowed to have differing opinions on subjects, as long as there is no misuse of his mod powers.

In think that there’s enough space here for differing opinions and discussion. Echo chambers are not good. Fyi: I’m against his idea, but I welcomed the discussion.
