Many leftists are armed already.

Personally, I’m not currently. I struggle with suicidal ideation and have been concerned about having access to guns.

With the rise of fascism, I think it’s time.

I feel the same way about gun ownership. I’ve avoided it as I have depression. Previously, it was a pretty easy decision.

The rise of fascism has changed the calculus for me. It may be time to arm myself.

For me, the most surprising thing about him has been how bad he is with the media.

I switched from Windows to Ubuntu years ago after getting frustrated with Windows.

It took some getting used to, but I love it now!

I’m not a programmer or especially tech savvy, but I’m old enough to have used DOS when that was occasionally necessary in Windows.

I recommend Ubuntu to anyone looking for a Windows alternative.

But like you said, things will have to be dumbed down and hidden extensively.

I switched to Ubuntu years ago after getting frustrated with Windows. It took some getting used to, but I love it and wouldn’t go back.

I’m not a programmer. I don’t game on my computer. I pretty much just use a web browser. Occasionally I’ll install a new program.

I’m just tech savvy enough to figure out how to do stuff by googling. Most of the how to guides are over my head, but there’s usually a very remedial one that I can understand.

Ubuntu has served my needs perfectly. It’s stable, simple, and runs like a dream on my older laptop.

Lemmy is my first exposure to the Linux community. I was surprised at the hate Ubuntu gets.

Sorry. That was me
