Ah, righto. That was an old rule in many subreddits. Seems to vary a bit by Lemmy community, though. I just cringe at clickbait!

A friendly request - please de-clickbait your headlines and say what the material is (although you do mention it in your summary).

I’m not anti-capitalist, I’m just content with the things I have.

Perfectly happy with my iPhone 14 Pro Max, which has better build quality than the current offering, and my half decade old Surface Book Pro (running Linux, naturally) – also built like a tank. When I need extra compute or storage, my NAS and home server await. For really serious stuff, I can always fire up an EC2 instance. Propping up the economy through consumerism is not my concern. This feels like a sponsored piece, akin to all of those articles after COVOD exhorting us to go back to the office full time.

Bravo for de-clickbaiting the headline!

Downvoted for:

• Clickbaity headline.
• Annoying YouTube thumbnail face.

Fellow satisfied Tailscale user here. Worth noting that one can host a custom control plane server if desired, which in theory removes cloud dependencies for Tailscale from the equation: https://tailscale.com/kb/1507/custom-control-server. Use of Mullvad exit nodes is optional ($5 / mo for 5 machines at time of writing). I’m not sure if TS’ native exit node feature can be configured to use other/sepf-hosted VPNs, but I suspect this is not supported.

Software development, equities trading and customer support according to the article.

Extremely happy with Voyager.

None of these are things I want in an OS.
