  • I’m using fedora as my work system, because I have a relatively new laptop that needs the new kernels. Haven’t experienced anything you’re describing. Are you on fedora regular or on sliverblue (the immutable version)? If you’re having issues running the newest kernel, follow the fedora documented way to build and run your own. I did just that when needed a prerelease kernel and it worked out fine. I usually upgrade to a new release by the end of the cycle, so that the new version had 6 months to mature. I never immediately upgrade.







  • They have been making a profit on YT for years already. This isn’t to cover the server cost, its to increase the bottom line after all competition was crushed by them. Also, I remember a time with unobtrusive ads that were fine and not an issue, unfortunately for the past 2 years or so they’re pushing more and more ads lately doubling up on them as well. Clearly people - just like me - start fighting back and stop them from abusing with massive amounts of unwanted content.





  • Thanks for sharing this link. That clarified it nicely. I think its a bit odd considering they literally stopped approving new accounts at the same time as defederating. But again, they seem to have a clear vision in mind for all of this and that’s fine. On the flip side, this disqualified them from any large support community that might want to migrate over as the reach is going to be limited. Mastodon has the same issue with people asking to defederate the main instance all the time…
