That’s cool. How did you go about finding that? Any communities you can recommend?

In my experience, these YouTube channels buy that simplicity in exchange for leaving out many (important) details. Sure, college professors aren’t all didactic geniuses, but making things accurate usually requires to also make it more complicated.

This may be a stupid question, but how does an app being on Play Store and not F-Droid make it no longer FOSS?

No and no, it’s just hype IMO. But the trickle of new users seems sufficient to make Lemmy a more interesting place to be and a more viable platform long term. That’s already quite good if you ask me.

Man, when I played, poor Paul got burnt to a crisp. I’m still having flashbacks from that shock.

I feel like Windows 7 fills the sweet spot between the seemless UI of the 2000/XP era and newer versions. Windows 10/11 could top that list if Microsoft had bothered to create a proper UI instead of just slapping some material design on a handful of apps, while everything else is still basically 2000/XP. Then again, GTK2/3/4 can be almost as bad.
