This. So much.

I am old enough to remember many people on the Internet questioning the entire concept of copyright and reacting to it with free licensing, defense of torrent sites, founding Pirate Parties.

Now I read that the primary reason to reject AI is that it is a “thief”??? In the era I described above, someone wrote a song with the lyrics: copying is not theft, stealing a thing leaves one less left, copying it makes one thing more, that’s what copying’s for…

I seriously learned how to use computers on Windows XP, so any computer I set up for myself, I set up to be as similar to Windows XP as possible.

“nura” does not mean “current” or “up-to-date”, it means “mere”, just FYI; you may be confusing it with “nuna”

In all of Turkey? Turkey is a big country.

Not sure I understood your problem well and I don’t have Inkscape in front of me right now, but I am pretty sure Ctrl+scrollwheel does zoom?!

Wait, has that become open source again in recent releases? I remember it not being for a while, but the repo currently says Apache 2.0? Anyone know more about it?

which is going to be all tech legally required to :(

I grew up in a time of technology being a liberating force that helped us live in a society more firmly based on individual rights.

I no longer live in that world.

OK, I wasn’t familiar with that term; TIL. Again, it’s not terminology I would personally have used; calling it a “fascist creed” over that still sounds like an exaggeration.

“Heritage is duty” refers to the heritage of computing, not of human beings. Completely non-outrageous in context.

“Command is service”, ok, that explains why Omarchy isn’t a democracy. I think many other FOSS projects aren’t either, so I don’t see anything outrageous in that either.

And you may of course disagree with their opinion on “Code-of-Conduct struggle sessions and identity-overload nonsense” (not words I would have used). Many completely well-meaning people hold different opinions on those topics.

Congratulations, you’ve just managed to advertise the exact thing you oppose. I would likely have given zero attention or thought to Omarchy today if I hadn’t seen this thread.

Also, I just read that “The Omarchy Doctrine” page; if someone seriously thinks that is a “fascist creed”, then that is very interesting. About the person who thinks that. If someone could help me figure out what part of that is supposed to be outrageous or especially controversial, I’d appreciate any help!

How ironic that you posted this and thus caused people to talk about the technology you want to give no attention to.

Haven’t heard of anything about this being done on a device level.

Then you simply missed a few news stories:

• https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/jun/08/starmer-tech-firms-ultimatum-block-explicit-images-children-phones from 3 months ago
• https://www.ispreview.co.uk/index.php/2026/09/government-look-to-impose-mandatory-age-verification-on-uk-smartphones.html from today

This is why countries need constitutions that limit what laws governments are allowed to pass. This is approximately the prototype of something governments just shouldn’t be allowed to ever do.

I don’t know if that’s true if they don’t publish a list of that. I certainly wouldn’t know how.

Yes. I have seen comments before from obscure instances that didn’t seem to be open to the public. It wouldn’t really make much technical sense to prevent that.

this, and also: what exactly is the question?!

If the Lemmy instance isn’t public anyway, then it seems like its federation list doesn’t have to be public either, so other instance admins would have no way of knowing what such an instance federates with.

No, not at all.

After your edit, it is slightly clearer what you are asking. But this is still a matter of desktop environment more than distro.

??????

Me too. It even supports connecting to SFTP servers (maybe needs an extension).
