I honestly don’t think there’s much of a difference between these groups. Both have lots of people hating the guts of another group. And both are substantially radical in views. This all is just crazy

Wtf? If you’re short - people don’t like it, if you’re tall - people don’t like it too, if you’re of normal height - noone cares. So what’s the point really in worrying so much about it?

Don’t care about this whole drama that someone is trying to start. At the end of the day Gnome is just the most comfortable DE for me personally. Plain, simple, beautiful, no cascading dropdowns, no distractions. Customizable just enough. The next option would be XFCE, mainly for a great balance between performance and niceness

I use Brave as a second browser (mainly to separate different activities) and did not have any issues with it apart from dragging tabs between monitors (it creates an additional empty tab sometimes when doing this). Turned off all unnecessary stuff right when I first launched it and that’s it. No bloat, no issues, just works. Didn’t know about this CEO controversy but seeing as it was a long time ago, don’t think it’s a valid reason to not use Brave. And both logo and name are cool.
It’s a solid option which we don’t really have a lot of in open source space

But you are an actual tankie! Stop gaslighting people into being afraid to call immoral tyrant apologists for what they are

I honestly think that we should have major instances federated to everyone and instead of complete defederation, provide users with options to block (basically hide) content from certain instances and users from your feed. It would also be crucial to have a separate tab then for all (unfiltered) content. The thing is, one of the main problems with traditional socials is that it is so easy to create a bubble around you and not see anything outside of it. While it’s OK to have personalized feed, it’s also important to be able to see everything the way it is - even with marxists, stalinists, fascists and so on. Maybe having some arguments with them here and there would be good too.
The other viable option is to just leave everything as it is, and retreat to viewing only subscribed content when you feel like it
