Damm, that is a long thread, I spent like 25 minutes reading it and only got half way through it

I am a guy from southern germany. I like scouting, trains and computers. Politically, I would consider myself as a democratic socialist.
(For anyone wondering, yes this is from the same guy, as !DeckPacker@piefed.blahaj.zone)

I would recommend you buy a Pixel phone and install GrapheneOS on it, if you want to continue to be able to do what you want with your phone.
It’s in Googles best interest to lock this down even further, so we should try to just not rely on their software anymore

1·4 days agoReddit was a centralized vc-funded social media from the start. That always was and still is the problem with reddit (enshitification etc.)
The Fediverse is none of those things. We have the power. As long as there are good people in the Fediverse, that want and are willing to do great things with it, the Fediverse (or at least a portion of it will be great.
Think of the Fediverse like E-Mail. Shure, there are shitty E-Mail providers. But if you are unhappy, you can just switch your provider and still talk to anyone that has E-Mail. There is no way for a single bad actor to ruin E-Mail for everyone, because there is no one fully in control over E-Mail.

1·4 days agoThere is a guide for this here, but I don’t think it’s really possible or a good idea to build it for unsupported devices.
At that point it would be better to install Linuage (or a fork of it), because they support devices for way longer or look into PostmarketOS

1·15 days agoI guess gender is pretty much meaningless in my opinion. It probably should be abolished.
But also, it’s fine if people care about their own gender.
It’s not that big of a deal as people make it out to be.

2·15 days agoGender is a social construct and describes a certain way we choose to act and dress etc.
So it’s pretty much impossible to be wrong about your gender if you are honest about your ambitions. The only way I could see someone being “wrong” about their gender is if someone says they are a certain gender but deliberately chooses to act in accordance with another. But even then, the line is blurry, so it would be stupid to police, what “true” gender expression is supposed to be.

15·16 days agoAnd we should condemn them deeply for it.
You should still vote for them, I guess, but they don’t even have a presidential candidate for the next election.
This purity testing between Democrats is so stupid. They fucking better give me a candidate, that doesn’t want to slaughter Palestinians. That shouldn’t be a controversial statement. If we signal to Democrats now, that we will vote for them no matter what stupid inhumane bullshit they do, then we are just gonna get another Biden that doesn’t do anything for 4 years and then loose to the stupidest Republican candidate imaginable.
It’s not like the Democrats do anything for transrights, Gavin Newsom literally said, that they were to supportive of Trans People and that’s why they lost the last election. Shure, their own research (that they tried to hide from the public) showed, that Kamela Harris’s position on Gaza lost them the election, but shure, let’s blame the minority group that is already heavily under attack.
I mean, shure in the short term, Gavin Newsom might be preferable to Trump, but he will be so bad, that everybody is gonna hate him after 4 years and people will just return to the Republicans. If we just continue to accept the Democrats bullshit, we are not doing anything for ourselves.

3·16 days agoIt really depends on the video game I guess. There are a lot of video games, I would consider high art, but there are others, I wouldn’t. That’s really subjective though and other people will probably consider other games as art than me.
But there is no way to objectively determine what art is. My personal definition is like I determine the gender of a person. If the artist says, it’s art, then it is art.

5·16 days agoI don’t know what the fuck you are talking about.
It’s still sold, so it definitely has a market value.
If you are talking about sociatal value, then I disagree even more firmly. Art has a lot of value, regardless of what medium it is delivered by.
You know that movies and video games are digital art, right?

The great thing about git is, that it is pretty decentralized in principle (everyone has a full copy of all source code and commits on their machines), so it is pretty easy to move your whole repository to an alternative git hoster, like Codeberg.
