Okay but change European to the whole continent.

I was excited at first, because I thought I could still chat with friends who won’t leave Discord.

Because the steps for Xitter were :

1. Want a Xitter
2. Go to Xitter
3. Create an account
4. Enjoy(?) Xitter

Even one extra step that adds friction can lead to you just not doing the thing.

Mega-corpos spend billions to reduce the number of steps to your wallet, because they make it back tenfold.

Update: 8 hours later, no change.

Update: Yep, still nothing.

I’ll check again after 24 hours to see if Lemmy does anything.

The Linux Experiment showed content, but Coffeezilla and Louis Rossman show empty for some reason.

I am beginning to remember what made me think Jellyfin wasn’t user friendly.

Maybe it wasn’t the user interface after all.

Tl;dr:

• PhotoPrism: Local AI with strong privacy but heavier setup.
• LibrePhotos: Same, but less polished, more community-built.
• Immich: Best self-hosted Google Photos alternative.
• Ente Photos: E2E encrypted, low-maintenance, most “plug and play”

The last two paragraphs are entirely about the fire, and don’t engage with the anger at all - which was the subject of the headline.

It’s like I was watching a news segment where they stop reporting and cut to a talking head who started analyzing political responses to the fire.

How much Chinese companies are donating to relief efforts and the political parallels of an election being delayed (covid before, the fire now) are tangentially related, but in my opinion, that’s no longer focused on “Anger swelling in Hong Kong over deadliest fire in more than 70 years”.

Yep. What’s considered intuitive UI changes depending on what you’re used to.

It’s why Google fought so hard to put Chromebooks in American classrooms.

I believe you. I feel that way about iTunes (trauma intensifies).

But Jellyfin doesn’t have that reputation.

Have you tried the box it came in?

TL;Dr: They want the Hong Kong leader to focus on the renovation company’s possible corruption, not the bamboo that didn’t burn.

The Hong Kong leader responded to the fire by promising to replace (traditional Hong Kong) bamboo scaffolding with (mainland China) steel, because they’re claiming it might have been an accelerant.

Residents argue that this is a distraction (most of the bamboo is still standing) from the real issue: the company doing the renovation/maintenance seems shoddy/corrupt and should be investigated.

At this point, the article gets unfocused and jumps around a lot.

By the end, she’s talking about the upcoming elections being compromised by the Chinese government.

I set up Plex on my mum’s TV and she can just push play. The UI is intuitive (read: familiar) to her.

Jellyfin has a reputation for giving users more control and customizability, but the other side of that coin is that it’s more “fiddly”.

My users don’t want to fiddle.

All of your comments in my inbox are immature attacks.

Since you’re not even trying to engage in an argument with me, I’m blocking you.

Wealthy capitalists, if they’re not based in the US

Are you talking about this part? If so, what I was saying was that billionaires moved to either the US or the three countries I mentioned.

That means the billionaires from China also did not move to Taiwan.

You can also look at the wiki for Taiwan’s billionaires. Only one was born in China and not Taiwan (Hong Kong, specifically), and I’m pretty sure he moved to Taiwan way before the events we’re taking about in this thread.

That would be… so lame.

why the fuck would you bring it up as a reason to think Ukraine isn’t losing?

I was bringing it up as a reason to think the case for Russia winning wasn’t a clear slam dunk.

Resorting to conscription to fill your ranks is not something you do when you’re “obviously winning”.

And before you make a claim about Ukraine resorting to conscription, too, at no point have I claimed Ukraine was “obviously winning” either.

This was the statement I was responding to:

It’s basically an island that all the wealthy capitalists ran away to after China imposed economic democracy.

Here was my response :

Wealthy capitalists, if they’re not based in the US, have moved to [Singapore (or Switzerland, or the UAE)], not to Taiwan.

Where was what I said dishonest or irrelevant?

Edit: reorganized for legibility

It’s possible, but he didn’t say that, and our argument continued without your help.

It is weird that you’re white-knighting so hard for him.

Why are you here?

I was saying that the billionaires were not moving to the island of Taiwan.

You’re talking about US Empire, which, as mentioned in my other responses in this thread, is irrelevant to the physical movements of billionaires.

Even if Taiwan declared itself to be US Empire island #76, it would not change the fact that billionaires did not move to the island of Taiwan.
