Yep. During my very short (6 mos) stint as a tech support rep for Dell, I've learned to assume your customer is an idiot. Even when they're using techie terms or jargon (and at times more so). Never assume other things besides that or you'll probably regret it.

You have to be very clear and precise. A single misunderstanding can take a simple problem a lot of time to get fixed.

Honestly, if I didn't need chat apps like Slack for my job I'd be pretty content with one of these. They'd still be good as secondary phones, but unless they can support chat apps (without other online apps like FB, IG, and even browsers - so good luck with that) they can't be my only/main device.

Why? First, because this editorial board doesn’t like getting yelled at. Second, there are going to be way fewer people with way less power mad at us.

I love this article lmao

Okay, I'm dumb. I've never used this. It seems it's a script. How safe is it? How exactly does it work? (i want to try it out lol)

This honestly makes a lot of sense. 🤔

I think it's DDG. I forget exactly, but i think I've read somewhere DGG has ties to Bing. Idk the specifics.

As for Brave, yeah. I agree. It's good to be wary. Unfortunately, not a lot of chromium-based alternatives. Linux has ungoogled chromium but security isn't that great either. It sucks, tbh.

One risk of the fediverse is that data is cached locally from federated servers. That could put server owners in legal jeopardy for hosting illegal content.

This 100%. And not just piracy-related stuff.

Tbh, there have been some decisions by lemmy.world admins that i didn't really support, but this one is understandable imo.

I wonder if the lemmy devs are aware of this and what steps can be taken to protect the instance owners from stuff in other instances that can get them in trouble.

Yup same. I was with Qobuz until it started having issues (kept buffering even if there's no problem with my connection). Apple music is buggy on Win 10 and sounded worse than Qobuz so i skipped it. I'm now on Tidal (fuck MQA still) but still looking for goodbetter music streaming services. Netflix can rot.
