paywall that finances both creation and the providing material.

Finance creation? It promotes lazy copycat contents. Even respectful (at least before their YouTube career) tech/artisan/DIYers etc are falling for the clickbait, the YouTube’s basic/teen humor… I pass on the tabloid stuff.

You want to make views. use these keywords:

• Apple
• I spent $$$ on …
• AI

The thing is that platform is just a TV.
I guess content creators should also pay for their access on the platform, not just a cut on the revenue. it will enforce good/honest creation .

Don’t want to be pedantic but you don’t “own” children, you are parent.

I forgot to precise that Porco Rosso, Chihiro and other Miyazaki are actually available in the non family/kids profile, hence my little breakdown

Adobe because Adobe tells them Firefox isn’t supported.

And why? It has nothing to do with Firefox. So here, You are not using Chrome for its pretending superiority, you use it because of sabotage.

Don’t get me wrong, you are totally free to do whatever you want, pal.

The issue is not so much Apple but the lack of real challenger. If only Sony didn’t give up on the PC market. I guess they bought in about tablets killing the conventional PC.

it baffles me that people are still using Google Chrome.

if you took non-friendly hardware, don’t expect magic. ok, the macbooks up to 2012 were quite hacker friendly but thinkpads are really the to-go laptop for a perfect Linux experience. nowadays, we have more variety: system76, framework, etc…

I would have expected something with Atheros, they were known to be FOSS friendly. but yeah, I didn’t encounter such chip for a while now. I don’t mind too much the drivers are closed sources - even though Broadcom is known to be a pain in the ass - as long as the “OS” and control software are opensource.

many thanks all and especially @SmoochPooch@lemmy.world I didn’t know that Ubiquiti APs could be “jailbroken”. Hopefully, I have never upgraded those :)

Not opensource, I don’t want to install their stuff on my smartphone (bluetooth and position required) or need a VM. I am not fond of leaving such blackbox devices on my network which needs cloud! EDIT: OH and I remember the issue with the control software due to MangoDB drama.

It is used for now on guest only network, sure I use Wireguard on top but still, find it annoying. And tbh, it has been suggested and the to-go solution but I notice that people are just blindly recommending what they read chatty techie’s blogs.

thanks @Palitu!

seems not much. for sure, you should avoid fosscam! pure shit

kudos pal!

cloud is overrated.
