I mean they ignore all the other laws, let’s add another to the list.

XMPP is federated

I mean only insofar as every other chat protocol “replaces” SMS. It only works if the other party is also using it. SMS and MMS will continue to be used with a completely different transmission mechanism.

AFAIK it is specifically meant as a replacement for SMS

Nope

and is used with regular pre-installed SMS Apps.

Only works with 3 proprietary apps, that I’m aware of. Google and Samsung Messages and iMessage.

Breaking news: AI is worthless. Stop using it.

I am not using GrapheneOS to then give my data to Google willingly

No one enables it to “give Google data”, they use it to get apps to work that use it as a dependency.

I don’t know anybody who still uses SMS/MMS to communicate.

RCS is neither.

I dunno what that means. I gave what I felt like a very simple take and this person started to argue with me, not the other way around.

You did say simple…

Newsom running for Pres?

If it has a apt package, it’s as easy as “sudo apt install xyz”

This is the kind of ignorant shit that relegates Linux to nerd circles. What do you do with this information? What is xyz, and exactly xyz because if you get a single letter wrong it does not work. Further the user has to already know what they want, which a new user will not.

LOL sure

Apart from Steam not being a standard installed item, it is very feature full.

I’ve just given you several examples of how it’s not.

For 32 bit you also need to enable multi-arch.

Just making my point for me now.

You wrote it was mostly for servers

No I wrote that’s it’s more commonly used in servers.

I don’t think you really understand the implications.

I don’t think you do.

sigh you don’t.

Debian is probably Thee most supported distro with the most packages available.

I’m not talking about availability. I’m talking about comes pre-installed so the user doesn’t have to go out and find them to use basic functionality.

Debian is also among the absolute best among Linux desktop options, and actually quite popular.

I did not say it was not great or popular.

There’s a reason Debian is still the most forked distro.

This is not the dunk you think it is…

no fractional scaling? thats a DE/WM feature not distro related

Lots of distros these days come out of the box with that pre-configured, so no, it’s not.

only includes default apps? you mean following the DE’s developer’s vision?

Yes.

Older drivers won’t support newer hardware. Only includes default apps from gnome and KDE. No DE tweaks to speak of. No performance optimizations. No Gear Lever. No fractional scaling implemented, etc. etc.

Debian is more like AOSP. It’s a starting point. Super bare. More commonly used in servers and such.

That’s not what you said. But since you did, it’s very easy to install and use. No hobby required.

GrapheneOS is ~10x more private and secure than iOS.
