    You don't create an account. And do not save coookiies for it. Only use a web browser. This would severy limit your usage as Instagram would constantly nag you to login and deteriorate your experience. But worth it. This is how I use it.

    You don't have to go to Instagram frequently but only when someone shares a link with you.

    My logitech mx master 3 works instantly on fedora with all it's features. I also have various wired and worless keyboards and mouses that work instantly on Fedora.

    For same mouse on windows, I need to wait for it to download and install outs drivers.

    Maybe you got things confused or are using LinuxFromScratch or something.

    Generally, when things work on windows, it is the effort of whomever made the device or software. Microsoft generally does not develop drivers. However, when things work on GNU/Linux it is the effort of GNU, Linux, or the community. The manufacturer probably did nothing. This simply explains why we are generally relaxed or "give Linux too much benefit of the doubt relative to the “things that just work”".

    So fairly comparing a Linux distro to raw windows, Linux is better. When you install a distro, things just work, when you install windows, most stuff do not work and you need to complete setup. Unless you use tools provided by the manufacturer, but then again, it is same story.

    Not really weired. For example, a keyboard has a firmware. 99% of keyboards have no way of it being updated or changed. It is part of its electronics. So not a big deal. But, if a keyboard has a way to update the firmware or install another one, then it should be FOSS.

  • If lemmy.world became the biggest in the fediverse with a user base that could rival Reddit. Would it become monetized?

    It could be monetized by showing regular ads next to content a and disguised adds as content. Also, if using the federated API, they could push some sponsored content desgized as such.

    This cannoy be applied to the whole fediverse but only to instances whose owners a want monetization.

    I am sure that if implemented, someone would make it work on mobile apps and others while showing a setting to "disable ads". And there would be forks that block adds by default etc.

    Maybe have a look. At what Threads are doing.

    It would be best if I don't have to create an account or install a proprietary app to perform the initial setup.

    I still haven't found any AMCrest camera being sold near me. I found some Hikvison.

  • I want to setup a camera monitoring for my house and some rooms. I need to bee able to view the cameras remotely and and also do recording if possible. I could find some camera brands like dahua cams but having briefly tested them they. Seem to rely on acwmtralized cloud and proprietary visualization software. What are you recommendation? This is not a professional setup I would at max have 3 cameras.

    For all my needs of temporary android devices, I use a temporary VM instead. where I install android-x86. Now I am looking for alternatives to this distro. It is a bit slow to use and now dated. Still on android 9. Any recommendation that are FLOSS? A guide how to install Lineage OS on QEmu or KVM is also a good alternative.
