How would the community’s reaction be if Bitwarden goes, “Look, we are moving more into the enterprise space, which means using proprietary software to service their needs. Our intention is to keep the enterprise and public versions sandboxed, but there is crossover, and we made a mistake.”? I really don’t care what they do in the enterprise space. Perhaps I’m an apologist, but seemingly more torn than most other posters.

A few questions out of ignorance. How different is this to gitlab’s open core model? Is this a permanent change? Is the involvement of investors the root of this? Are we overreacting as it doesn’t meet our strict definition of foss?

Did someone spraypaint this before removing stickers from it? Because if that is the case hell yea buy it. You will never agaín find a laotop with such style ever again. Especially at that price.

Not to disagree but mozilla and firefox are not the same thing

I applaud you coming here, but you might have better luck on the steam forums as there are more people there who might have the same problem

Uh oh here we go again… spaces are better than tabs! Fight me! The shirt is coming off! Granular white space beats fewer character per file!

This sounds vaguely illegal

At what point/what would it take for yt-dlp to be shut down?

That is a very unpleasant analogy

If you can forgo a gui, it shouldn’t be hard to write a bash script to do this

You could turn it off and turn it back on every X period of time, but that doesn’t guarantee something doesn’t go wrong in between. It sounds like you don’t have alot of data relatively speaking. Is there a reason not to keep it on your present machine and do the above? Cost? IIRC you can get a 1 tb m.2 for under $150.

We are not worthy!

If you are an expert, why are you asking pee ons like us?

Excuse me. It’s American cheese food product to you. You uncultured… I mean it uncultured…

Alacritty. Alacritty. Alacritty. And did I mention Alacritty? (I’m just counting how many I have open atm)

Linux is grown. BSD is engineered

While a good solution in principle, it could (and likely will) false flag accounts. Such a system should be a first line with a review as a second.

That’s true. Most are perfectly fine provided they have a computer ready to use. Straight out of the box. Immediately. The lack of choice itself is comforting. Everything moves forward. No lateral motion.

We must provide them that type of “thing that just works”. Constantly move forward. What is comfortable. What is familiar.

Most people have had great answers coming from the company side of things. I’ll take it from the standpoint of individuals like us helping someone linux curious see the light, while still having the “just works” experience.

Do not give them any choices. None. Put them on your stable distro of choice for a new user, call whatever that is “Linux”, and be on your way.

But why? Isn’t that antithetical to everything we value? Yes and no. We value choice almost above anything else, but that doesn’t “just work” for most people. Which of those do you value more?

This was a lot of what I was getting at. We artificially build our own walled garden. We’ll let anyone in just as much as we’ll throw turds over the fence. Your shit don’t stink if you throw it at someone else
