They never forced a retroactive change

I think this is an excuse. Using the CLI you can easily create and specify the default branch. It’s also not difficult to check the branch name.

I use GitHub and all my older repos have a master branch with no forced change. When did they force a change? I think you are mistaken.

We’re just used to it though. What does master have above main in terms of communicating context?

I’d really advise against forcing all code contributions to be copyrighted to you. It doesn’t send a great message to contributors. It also gets murky if any libraries are used.

That’s a fair take

I think we’re thinking about it wrong. These aren’t open source people looking to contribute to projects. These are product creators looking to reach the open source community. It’s not the same mindset.

Agreed that competition only helps us users

Battle hardened > new

Unless the new has a killer feature set worth the trade off in potential bugs

It depends.

I definitely don’t support nazi and far right nonsense but I don’t think deplatforming does anything except drive those people and their users into deeper echo chambers.

Posts about people being nicer while being condescending about his position 🤦

Looks great I’ll have to give it a spin

Use what works best for you! I will say I love how I can customize StreetComplete so that the things I think are important can be asked first.

This feels like it was written by someone who hasn’t done sysadmin of a Windows network in a long time. Everything is online and is almost always one click now. Provisioning, removing permissions, updating email filters, adding users. Each item is so much easier now than it used to be. I loving running my PopOs install but let’s not pretend that SysAdmin is the 90s nightmare it once was.

Very true. Also the degradation due to installed programs hasn’t been a thing for some time. Even if something does happen you can refresh without losing any data very easily these days.

VNC would not work for your needs.

I’ve had success in this set up using TeamViewer (over internet) or No machine (local network).

Point 4 is only true if you buy a pre built system. If you install the OS yourself there is very little pre installed.

This has got to be bait from that user. The third screen is like the keyboard screen. What the heck are they even talking about. 36 hours to still be in the first three screens.

Check out the article and feature video. It does appear to link to answers it pulled from. Bing and Bard do the same. Posters saying it’s impossible are mistaken.
