If that doesn’t make it more difficult to use, then enabling Proton by default doesn’t either. Most distros I’ve used require enabling multi-lib repos in the package manager just to try installing steam - you’re telling me that isn’t added difficulty?
I never got used to it. Always felt gimped using it. At least with Windows I had shortcuts and virtual desktops.
Your windows problems weren’t brand new problems and likely from there systems or integrations.
When I say there were issues with OSX, I mean brand new problems stemming from updates breaking compatibility with systems and software. Nothing like getting to work one morning and every single employee lost the ability to screen share, or suddenly the file system for your virtual machines was broken, etc.
“make it easier” meanwhile Steam is still only 32 bit
As someone who has had to use Windows, OSX and Linux as a daily driver at different points, OSX was by far the most challenging to work with. Every few months something broke. Fully on Linux now.
The only time I use Windows is for Fusion 360
I see the cheques cleared
Is one fucking punctuation mark so much to ask for?
The content is so repetitive, likely because they drive engagement by reposting content with bot accounts. I still get a major amount of news from there, I can tell it’s value is slowly fading
“Allows” is sometimes used synonymously with “Enables”

There needs to be at least some evidence that the American subsidiary of tiktok broke data privacy laws
If they did, they’d be tried under those laws, not some new legislation that allows carte blanche banning without a trial. That should tell you everything you need to know about whether there’s any proof of them breaking data privacy laws.
You act like citizens are being handed crack cocaine.
It’s just videos. If you don’t believe in people having free will to watch videos on the Internet, you don’t believe in freedom.
Okay, so shut down twitter, Facebook, Fox News, rebel News, etc. Oh, what’s that? You only want to shut down platforms that you disagree with? So “poisoning minds” was just a false projection.
Citizens should be free to choose which social media platforms there wish to use.
Companies are not free, which is why they must operate within the regulations and laws that protect consumers and the nation as a whole.
Banning TikTok only violates the freedom of citizens and does nothing to protect consumers or the nation. Your argument makes zero sense in this context.
Android will push notifications for news articles that you may be “interested” in. I think it used to be called Google Now.
Congress is concerned about theoretical propaganda, but it’s a reality in nearly every major news outlet and tech companies, but zero concern when it fits a certain narrative.
I’m Canadian - 2 weeks before the election I started getting about an article per day pushed to my Android phone, for a few days.
This right here - if you ever use TikTok, you really quickly realize why it’s so successful. To deny its success is just plain willful ignorance.
I’m Canadian, but so much of the content I consume is from Americans so I hope it stays.
Which is why you linked so much of this proof, eh?
To date, there is no public evidence that Beijing has actually harvested TikTok’s commercial data for intelligence or other purposes.

And, just so you don’t flail around with misinformation, we’re talking american TikTok data.
The thing with TikTok is almost all americans on it have gravitated away from other platforms because it has more to offer. I don’t think there’s a large demographic on TikTok who don’t precisely understand why they use TikTok over other platforms. (Edit: youth I suppose) I also believe this is why they want to force TikTok to sell, they want to have it exist as a platform but with new management.
If TikTok doesn’t sell and it does get banned, I almost guarantee the demographic will quickly find themselves on another, likely Chinese owned, platform. This will still be a win for Congress as they’ll have fractured TikTok and weakened the demographic as a whole.
Time will tell.
Why kind of psychos are merging with failing tests?
