I've been wanting to transfer my computer to Linux for years now, but I don't want all my mod lists to go up in flames

Besides that, I'm smack bang in newborn paranoid

Alternate title: The Tech Burnout

This is 100% me

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Yes. I like this way better than “tech conservative “

Well except for the Arch part. I’m not a masochist.

[–] 30p87@feddit.org 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Hey twin, lol

[–] LGTM@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 days ago

Currently at the crossroads from newborn paranoid into either this or tech paranoid, it's so joever

[–] CheeseNoodle@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Currently on a very locked down version of firefox but also windows, though I've been experimenting with mint on an old laptop in prepration for a switchover.

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 3 points 2 days ago

It's nice to have an old laptop to try things out. Good luck with the switch!

"Has hundreds of messaging apps their friends won't use."

Got caught.

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 21 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Hey, someone in the friend group has to test the apps ahead of time for when they all inevitably wake up and delete Discord, I can guide them to matrix or SimpleX! This is exactly how it will go right?

Guys... where'd you go?

I cant believe i have been called a conservative

[–] hatedbad@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 2 days ago

this is BSD erasure

[–] Sidhean@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

Haha good meme. I'm a tech conservative for sure!

I use Mint btw

[–] JovialSodium@lemmy.sdf.org 27 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I live between the tech conservative and tech paranoid with a splash of distro hopping.

[–] Engywuck@lemm.ee 10 points 3 days ago

Same, but I stay on Arch btw.

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I’m not sure I like being labeled “conservative”…

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Conservative doesn't mean braindead.

It means keeping things the way they are. Like conserving the rain forest.

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Oh I know this in my head. It’s the negative connotation that’s in my heart that’s the problem.

Between tech normie and tech conservative

[–] Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Someone who even it broke couldn't fix it because it's an Apple.

I think we're all in between conservative and newborn paranoid ... for me, I love alpha/nightly, which LW doesn't have, so FF it is. But I cope by telling myself that a properly configured FF is just as good as LW. And Signal is better than needing to use WhatsApp with family members.

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 6 points 3 days ago

Yeah, I guess so. The slippery slope is real though.

[–] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 5 points 3 days ago

This is the most accurate mem I've ever seen

[–] Korbs@lemmy.sudovanilla.org 2 points 2 days ago

I'm right between conservative and paranoid :) and want to stay there.

Guilty of being Ricer. To answer the questionmakrs, I decided on Brave (again) recently, although in terms of theming, Firefox definitely offers more.

[–] neox_@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago (2 children)

The FSF member does not use libreboot anymore (not entirely free on some boards for a while now). See GNU Boot!

This meme is so private that it doesn't even show up on Mbin.

[–] vegantomato@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Privacy meme

[–] Korbs@lemmy.sudovanilla.org 1 points 2 days ago

Haha, didn't even noticed the imgur URL. Looks like Lemmy proxies this tho.

[–] proceduralnightshade@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 days ago

Years ago, when Telegram was relatively fresh, I convinced most of my friends and acquaintances to use it. I don't know how I did it, but now that I want to get away from Telegram, I wish I could do it again.
