Google is out of my life and it wasn’t hard to do

With all due respect what systems are you “forced” to use AI? With only a very little bit of effort I never encounter it and am definitely never forced to use it.

LMAO right??? I can’t agree more

This was one of the reasons I went to kinoite. Part of leaving Windows was to get away from all their slop… The other part was to get away all the forced updates. I don’t wanna be forced to update if I don’t want too

Edit: to illustrate your point look at the stories of people who can’t use virilization anymore because they took out virt-manager and QEMU but did a horrible job of telling people and then stuff updated.

Now they rebase to -dx, layer the packages or go someplace else.

I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your response… It all makes sense now! I understand the excitement about these now

I have KDE on two of my computers but don’t really understand what you’re talking about. I keep reading though about the awesome paneling KDE has.

Can you explain more what you mean or give a link that explains? Maybe my use case is too basic but I don’t use anything beyond what I ever used in windows and I feel happy. However people talk about this all the time so I really want to learn

Same… Banned my account of nearly 20 years. Still to this day no reason or email why. Then every account I made was banned presumably because I used alias emails on a VPN.

So I find myself here.

I just thought about this… They made it so hard for me to make an anonymous account I moved here. The AI accounts have more tools at their disposal to get around this and have more incentive to so they stick around. They’re little going to fill their site with bots while getting rid of a good portion of their human uses because of their shit practices.

Further when you sell out to using you data to build AI models what do you expect to show up after?

Disable my AD blocker… Na I’d rather not read the article
