I’m not saying there’s not a misogyny problem. Its the same old repeat divide and conquer playbook that I have issue with. You can see it all over the internet. We will never solve the root issue if we keep feeding this clickbait b.s. Purely designed to get people frothing at the mouth, its shitty “men bad” journalism.

Blaming parents is an individualistic solution to a systemic problem

A system made up of individual people…

No one EVER wants to take personal responsibility. God forbid a parent actually parent and not just hand their child’s mind over to the state.

Timmy - Can I have meta glasses / mindrape myself with brainrot?

Parent - No.

Problem solved over night.

Shifting all of the onus onto the “mysterious system” is exactly what causes these issues in the first place. Its a cop out 100%. “Well I know I didnt even try but but but the system.”

Change happens when individuals nut up and take things into their own hands.

The parents are shitty parents and will continue to be so as long as people keep hand-waving any and all responsibility.

clickbait gender wars bs? I guess we’re sliding back to reddit tier now?

Praise our benevolent overseers, truly they are the chosen ones to lead us to paradise.

The collective amnesia is unreal. Did we all just forget about prism? No US tech company can be trusted with your data at any level. By law they have to have backdoors or be shutdown, and can legally lie to you.

who controls the keys / where are the keys?

Users will know that a conversation is end-to-end encrypted when they see a new lock icon

😂 imagine trusting an emoji

cant wait to see all the reasons the normencattle come up with as to why they still need linkedin

pretty dang fragile So tired of fragile software BUT its usually free and responsibility falls on me to contribute or stfu.

Now shitty paid software? I could rant for days.

I’m saving nextcloud for when I need to scale and have more hardware.

never hurts to learn.

Cal.com is open-source and selfhostable without too much issue. The issues just stem from proton’s encryption and cal.com still being in development.

Odoo seems super heavy for my use-case but thanks for sharing. Never hurts to have backups. easyappointments doesn’t seem too bad.

The site is basic wordpress atm and I’ve got a separate server for hosting webapps.

Thanks this might be the solution. Fingers crossed it supports round-cube without issues.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but you’re saying shared/sync’d and updateable calendars outside of big tech like google is still an unsolved problem?

The biggest way you can help is to TAKE ACTION. Get the ball rolling. Regardless what you think the solution is. Take action to make it happen. Don’t wait on “someone else” will do it. If you don’t have the skills or know how. Reach out to someone who does, keep the ball rolling

exactly that’s why actions speak louder in these cases.

Lets not act like this is an impossible task.

There is a process and actually multiple ways to accomplish this. Looking into, we might not even need to fork android, but just support existing alternatives.

I would think the first step is to fork the Android Open Source Project. use that as a base, start cutting out any links to google, fill in the gaps, etc. This is obviously not my realm of expertise but there is a path.

“170,000 tech workers lost their jobs in the U.S. in the 18 months prior to mid-2025”

Don’t tell me we can’t scrape together a team of experts and make this happen. Yes there will be barriers and push-back, but its either this or we just keep deepthroating google.
