I don’t think AGPLv3 license would prevent someone from opening a nazi bar lemmy though…

"if you were in violation of lemmy’s terms of use, yeah…” wait, is there a central lemmy that can nuke other instances? I thought the whole point of the Fediverse was that if you don’t like an instance, you just defederate from it, and that there was no central power.

Yeah, we used to own the software we bought and could do whatever we wanted with it on our private storage, but now capitalism has realized it’s more lucrative to only sell licenses. Imagine Microsoft/Apple/Google erasing your privately stored documents tomorrow because they contained stuff against their policies. Very dangerous when you have governments banning abortion, trans rights, and even labeling antifascism as terrorism.

I can’t believe the number of people thinking trillion dollar mega corporations overreach is good just because it’s happening to others. Tomorrow, it’s you - that’s why we need more consumer rights and privacy protection, but the thing about rights is that they are for everyone and not just for the people you pick.

Self-hosted private server, just like a lemmy instance, one joins out of their own will. Imagine mega corporations being able to decide what is acceptable on your lemmy instance and take it down if they don’t like it?

Tomorrow, to conform to the new regime, Microsoft starts to shut down private servers with mentions to LGBT and Antifa.
If you don’t stand up for free speech when its idiots using slurs, there will be no one left to stand up for you tomorrow when its your speech under attack.

I feel you.
I recommend checking photopea.com, it’s a very light photoshop webversion that can do almost everything photoshop can do, a very cool tool.

As a life-long pirate, having full MS Office, Macromedia and Adobe packages weren’t ever a problem, but one day I decided to start using FOSS stuff… and man, getting into GIMP was damn painful, oh, the horror!
I’m very glad for photopea.com when I need to do some quick stuff, but for GIMP, this guy here made a very cool setup to help us Photoshop users https://github.com/Diolinux/PhotoGIMP

I’m also in no way qualified to check code, so I just trust that if something has a lot of forks it means a lot of people are looking at it.

Thanks. I tested a few and so far I favor PicView (haven’t tested ImageGlass yet). A lot of people recommend nomacs, I find it kind of weird because it technically doesn’t even support Win11 since its last update was 2020, before Win11’s release (Win11 isn’t even listed on its site). I wonder if there haven’t been any codec updates since then for nomacs to still rank so high.
