I know it’s not your question, but we probably don’t have to give up either one. Just do a lot less of it. It’s a lot easier to convince people to do less or seek viable alternatives than to give it up.
There’s also a good chance that both will become greener with better, greener tech.
Could you provide a link to what you read?
There’s just nothing that comes even close to Sync for me. Happy to support the developer.
Thanks for the response. I appreciate it. It’s ok to agree to disagree. Especially on a minor issue like this.
Not trying to be better than anyone, and I do agree that it may not be the biggest of deals. But I’m a native speaker, and I’m just pointing out the grammar part and making people aware that it’s a Republican epithet.
Here’s an article about it for your enjoyment: https://www.npr.org/sections/publiceditor/2010/03/26/114585414/since-when-did-it-become-the-democrat-party
Democrat is a noun. Democratic is an adjective. You can say “vote for a Democrat,” but you can’t say “vote Democrat” because you’re referring to the Democratic Party where “Democratic” is the adjective. In that case, it would be “vote Democratic.”
Republicans love to use slurs like “the Democrat Party.” That’s probably where you’ve heard it.
*Vote Democratic.
Vote Democrat is just bad grammar.
There’s a reason why it’s called “work” and “free time.” Most prefer free time to do whatever they actually want to do.
And we’re way overdue for another patch or two.
Not to this extent in any way. It has been infinitely exacerbated with the dawn of social media. Those who seek to divide have the tools to do so. And we’ve seen since 2016 what it leads to when people are being continually lied to and they believe it because the lies fit into their own belief system. Trump is not a master at much, but he’s a master at that.
People just make up their own truth and say that you’re the one in need of “truth.” It’s a product of the “alternative facts” era that mainly Trump ushered in and others have picked up. If your facts do no support the preferred agenda, it’s just dismissed as “fake news.” Easy-peacy.

I gave Lemmy a shot after the API debacle on reddit. First week was bumpy with lots of timeouts and servers that weren’t able to handle all the new users from reddit.
It quickly improved. So much so that I went ahead and deleted my reddit account.
Started out bumpy and the servers couldn’t handle all the new traffic. Vast improvements over the last few days. So much so that I went ahead and deleted my reddit account today. Not looking back.
The signup process is a barrier at the moment that will have to be addressed. Other than that, I don’t really see why it couldn’t be the new, improved reddit.

As California goes, so goes the nation. Conservatives don’t like this.
If it wasn’t for the high cost of living, I’d move to California as well. Still hope I’ll make it there some day.
