Will there be a linux version?

I occasionally use it. You can message me at tsugu@disroot.org if you want.

Yeesh, imagine getting this mad because of a post about a messenger. I hate explaining memes because it ruins them, but I guess I have no choice.

When most people hear about Threema, they believe that 5€ is way too much to pay for a messenger. Some realize that 5€ is not that bad, but without a continuous stream of money, a service like this will cease to exist once it runs out of money, so it’s better to avoid it. And if they read the entire website, and discover that the company is actually providing messaging solutions used by a lot of companies who pay them monthly, for each of their employees, it becomes clear where the money is coming from, and that the company won’t go bankrupt anytime soon.

That’s the meme. If you don’t like it, I understand. But you can fuck right off with calling everything that mentions a name of an app/service as an ad. I made memes in the past mentioning open source chat apps, and nobody ever called it an ad.

Why do you insist that anything mentioning an app/service you don’t know is an ad?

I can respect this, though just because they’ve released the source code it doesn’t mean that what’s in the repositories is actually running on the servers. It happened before, and while it is not a big deal, we can’t know what is precisely running on there at all times. And the stock Signal app doesn’t allow federating with other signal servers out there, so personally I don’t care whether the server side has a published source code.

This is an ad for microsoft, then.

I’m a crypto bro, and not even I use it. Good thing nobody forces us to do so.

I literally thought about this while eating spaghetti. And then I proceeded to contact Brave and we signed a deal where they agreed to send me thousands of dollars to make this ad, I mean a meme, and only post it on a single lemmy community.

From my experience, Brave worked better on mobile than Firefox, so I stick to it. On PC I’m however using Firefox + uBlock.

As a fellow Ubuntu user, I think there are distros that are technically superior. But at some point I just got tired of chasing the best option. I just want an operating system that works on all devices I install it to, and that listens to my commands. Ubuntu does that just fine. I love what they’ve done with GNOME, its ram usage is minimal (1.4GB), apps launch fast, snap is nicer to use than flatpak (which I can install with a single command), and if I wanted to I can stick to an LTS for up to 12 years.

My record is around 5.

Literally every meme I’ve ever made was done in GIMP. I can say that the software needs non-destructive editing that applies to transforming layers. So far there’s only non-destructive effects on the layers, but discarding 20 years of work because the software is not a 1:1 copy of Photoshop seems silly.

It’s worth mentioning that GIMP is mainly developed by two developers. If you wish for the development to be faster, you should consider donating.

That’s what I used to think as well actually. I opened it, saw the airplane control center, and closed it. But then I volunteered for editing a photo for my school, and I had to learn how to effectively create borders around the text, as I would have to makes a lot of changes to them. So I searched and came across this video. And then I understood that GIMP is actually a really powerful tool, you just have to learn how the developers intended you to work with it. Admittedly, having to use the drop shadow feature for text borders is pretty retarded, but it lets you fine tune the how the end result will look.

GIMP or Krita might not be up to the standard as Affinity and Photoshop are, but at least while perfecting my skills in GIMP, I don’t have to worry about having to find a different software because a random company purchases it.

Not to worry, I have inside info from PornHub, and they assured me no people living in Texas were harmed during the ban.

As far as I know, Lemmy doesn’t allow the deletion of content. https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1b6g219/psa_you_cant_delete_photos_uploaded_to_lemmy_so/

You should however be able to overwrite your posts. So when you delete them, change every field to random nonsense.

It’s an attempt to parody the meme format where people take two similarly looking characters and put Science Blaster (Game Theory’s theme song) in the background, implying that the two characters are the same. Such as this one.
