  • I decided to go with an immutable distro for my first Linux gaming PC because immutable distros are as idiot proof as you can get. I like that I can’t really mess anything up and if something does break, I can rollback to a previous version. I’m sure there are ways to setup rollback for other distros but I’m not a Linux person so I don’t really know what I’m doing and letting Bazzite handle everything for me made it a perfect fit.

    Everything has been smooth sailing with Bazzite so far.


  • Large corporations would be able to afford to make deals with ISPs to give them preferential treatment so that access to their sites are faster than others. This is good for social media sites whose whole business model is monetizing their users. Things like the Fediverse would be hit especially hard because of its distributed nature.

    ISPs can offer further tiers of plans making it more expensive to access websites that don’t belong to major corporations bribing the ISPs. All the corporations win in this scheme while furthering the enshittification of the Internet.

    Want to use Linux? Accessing those sites is difficult and expensive so why not use Windows instead

    Want to use Mastodon? Sorry but that sites super slow so how about Twitter instead.

    Want to use end to end encrypted email? Too bad. The connection their servers are super spotty. Better use Gmail or Yahoo for email like everyone else.
