I got an off-lease dell latitude 7400. Tbh, got it for free, but you can snag one on eBay for under $400. i5, 16 Gb ram, got a 1TB drive for $50 on Amazon. Runs Linux very well! I'd go with a light weight is like EndeavourOS or Arch.

As a rebuttal for this, I installed KDE with Wayland on my EndeavourOS and you know what? It's super comfy and good! Explain yourself! Are you just a Luddite?
Crate an account on a different instance? And oh yeah, stop being a dink?
Do a search in All for the keywords for the community name. Chances are you are either not going to find some of them or find multiple ones on several Lemmy instances. If you find several, subscribe to all and see which one is the most active, if you find none, consider starting one yourself.
EndeavourOS for the win! The speed of Arch Linux without the installation pain! Especially for older hardware?
My rule of thumb is this: if I perceive that the IP I want, was created by an individual who must have spent their blood sweat and tears creating it, I'll pay for it to encourage that work. If, on the other hand I'm being made to pay extra for something just because there's a queue of corporations that just want to profit for providing something made by others, I pirate it as a form of protest. As an example, I'll gladly pay for an ebook being distributed through an author's website even if I'm not sure I'm going to like it. But I will not pay for a cable subscription just to be able to watch sports programs. Another example: I've paid money for mobile games when I see a lot of effort being spent in making the gameplay engaging, but I will delete or try to cheat or pirate games that I perceive as pay-to-win.
A fair point. I deleted my account to reduce the statistics of active users of Reddit. On the one hand, I agree that the information that exists there is still relevant and can be helpful for some people, on the other, I don't want my account to count for some stat that Spez will use to report to investors on the continued viability of Reddit.
Just got an update on Sync and Discuss.Online is working again! I also tried Liftoff but it does not seem to think that Discuss is a valid instance.
While I agree that getting bullied in the news cycle is not healthy, I feel like getting the information about what's going on around you from memes is also not good. It lacks context and details to enable the user from processing the news with critical thinking. I don't know what the answer is, but for people who exercise their power of a vote, I feel like they need to be as knowledgeable about the issues as possible.
I dropped and deleted the account. Only time I go to Reddit now is if I am searching for something and a Reddit link is part of the search and happen to have the answer I need.
No other way, if you're banned.
