🚨 Take the quick survey by June 15!

Is It Time To Say Goodbye To Reddit?
Has Reddit finally gone too far? First it was privacy, advertisements, and now third party apps. Is it time to say goodbye to Reddit?

@markwyner I agree. It was very well done and honestly showed me that my perfectionism has it's advantages. Our passions and values are what drives us. @hyde @eclecticpassions

@cos I just realized that I found this back in July of 2025 and thus far there is no public updates regarding this project. It would be nice to see a laser rather than InkJet, but it would be wonderful to see this become available as printers are typically not an open hardware design.

@travisj@indieweb.social I too was highly invested into Adobe with regard to Photoshop and Illustrator through a ex-employer. I even was a avid follower of Scott Kelby and a subscriber to Photoshop User magazine. I saw the signs around 2010 and then definitely in 2012. I left it all behind as I knew it was going to be a disaster. I'm grateful for apps like GIMP and Inkscape. They have their quarks, but at least I have my freedom and being respected as a user. All powered by the community.

@Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange Oh I entirely agree. I find this so frustrating that this is so hard for people to understand.

@82mhz@mastodon.bsd.cafe Don't concern yourself with repeating what has been said in the past. Life it self is on repeat.

@82mhz@mastodon.bsd.cafe I can understand how one struggles at times on what to write about in an intro. I feel most people have been there in life. Here is my brief suggestions...
- Try to do something that clears your mind
- Write about a specific link found
- Write about latest news
- Write about an interesting experience for the day, week, etc.
- Draw from what is within a post, life tasks, etc.

@mike@fosstodon.org Yes it was annoying. Not to mention the metal in the cases then were bound to cut you up. @SamuraiSakura@mastodon.bsd.cafe

@Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange Surprise... surprise. Why would big tech comply when time and time again they only receive at most a slap on the wrist? We need to see accountability.

@davidbombal@infosec.exchange Typically /bin/, /usr/bin/, /usr/local/bin/ and ~/.local/bin/. However an executable can be stored anywhere. Though only accessible anywhere if found within the environment variable called path.

@mhd@tilde.zone I used a few of these on old IBM clones. Though they only had two buttons. Nothing like used a brick as a mouse. 😏 @SamuraiSakura@mastodon.bsd.cafe

Do you find Little Bits Issue Highlights useful?
Replying to
@johnefrancis@cosocial.ca This is beyond disappointing. History shows that such organizations continue to break laws without any regard or care. They require oversight and accountability. 😦
