I was also a lurker in “the other place”, but convinced myself to participate here since I wanted to help lemmy feel “alive”. Now I really like it and comment regularly.

I thought I saw an anouncement somewhere that some people from that sub moved to lemmy… Maybe search for it again.

That does sound really comfy.

“Main character energy” is a great way to put it. If I came across someone wearing these I’d have some assumptions…

Isn’t it free if you’re okay with using it in light mode?

I mostly use the CLI but when I used to use PyCharm the JetBrain git GUI was the shit. The closest to it in a standalone program I’ve seen is maybe sublime merge, which is also great.

Yes. “The internet never forgets” is actually a thing.

Okay… it was, though.

I think it’s extremely hard to tell what people would prioritize. If you aks them hypothetically, everyone probably is some green warrior for mother earth. But then when push comes to shove, the industry will give them the choice between a flagship phone, glued all around, and a phone with a removable battery with all the greatest specs from five years ago. Of course many will chose the glued ond, and then some people will be like “welp, the free market has decided”. 🤷

Very cool! I used to think that no one would care when researchers would protest these things by striking. But I guess anything that hurts the well oiled money making machine that is modern academia (not for researchers though, of course) gets noticed. Seeing it done for real is great, and even more so that it was successful!

The machine needs to be fed.
