  • Look, I’ve used Cachy. It’s great, pretty polished, looks nice.

    But do not recommend an arch distro like that until you know person is more tech inclined.

    Because a lot of Windows users are not, and they’re not going to want to open the terminal.

    Cachy is best for those who like to more effortlessly tinker with their system, like messing around with Polkit so KDE doesn’t ask for a password every second.

    Don’t forget, it’s not about what we’ve always wanted from an OS, but what the other person might want from an OS. When unknown, pick the simpler solutions, like Bazzite, Debian, or Mint.

    That’s how I’ve gotten 8 people converted to Linux from Windows this year.





  • I agree it’s not that simple, but it’s just a proposed possible beginning to a solution. We could refine it further and then give the vet refined idea as a charter for a lawyer to them draft up as a proper proposal that could then be present to a relative governmental body to consider.

    But few people like to put in that work. Even politicians don’t - that’s why corporations get so much of what they want - they do that and pay people to do that for them.

    That said, view count isn’t the same as membership. This solution wouldn’t be perfect.

    But it would be better than nothing at all, especially now with the advent of AI turning the firehouse of lies into the tsunami of lies. Currently one side only grows stronger in their opportunity for causing havoc and mischief while the other, quite literally, does nothing and sometimes advocates for doing nothing. You could say it’s a reflection of the tolerance paradox that we’re seeing today.



  • Just make the law so it only affects things with x-amount of millions of users or x-percent of the population number minimum. You could even have regulation tiers toed to amount of active users, so those over the billion mark are regulated the strictest, like Facebook.

    That’ll leave smaller networks, forums, and businesses alone while finally giving some actually needed regulations to the large corporations messing with things.
