  • Someone buys an expensive car. They say “I cant use the railway!” Are you going to tell them they’re wrong?

    Yes. Because they are.

    We dont know if they live next to a railway line. They’re also heavily invested in the car and unlikely to pay out for rail tickets.

    None of which indicates they “can’t use the railway”. It may not be their preferred travel method, which is fine (in the metaphorical sense), but to say they “can’t” use the railway is simply untrue.


  • OP said “the software and driver support isn’t there”.

    Someone replied and corrected them to explain the software and driver support does in fact exist.

    OP replied to say that what he actually meant was that it didn’t support the specific software and driver they wanted to use.

    Seems like a perfectly reasonable conversation.














  • To be clear, Fedi is basically the opposite of private. Every post you make is archived on some 25k servers. Even your DMs.

    Also it’s entirely dependent on your server admin and what kind of info they are collecting.

    If you want private social media, Signal stories are pretty much all we got, to my knowledge.
