    You will also have to trust that their anti cheat is never going to break and never will fail. It’s not just about what they could willingly do, but also what could happen in case of failure, that level of control could literally mean break your entire system, already happened with them and already happened with other services with the same level of access

    I will admit that it was drastic and maybe not the best way to express what I wanted to say, in my defense I was irritated and sleepy. The mentions about “rustaceans” toxicity didn’t come out of nowhere and not just for technical reasons, anyway I tried to express too that I was not trying to generalize but I saw this behavior in many “rustaceans”, even the core team is just…

    I’m not sure if I could call what they do “elitism”. Saying to people to the programming language they’re building should not exist, because we already have rust and they’re just wasting their time and blah blah, and in my comment you can see just how much I hate it, and is not only one person doing it, that why there are so much friction between “communities”, I think recently is not that bad

    I started to think that every community has two sides, one when you try to enter and learn the language and other when you say that you don’t like something( and I mean valid criticisms) they do things way way different than “usual”, specially the rust community that behaves like a cult basically, and again I’m not saying this because of a meme I’ve seen it from afar and it’s really disgusting. That why I mentioned that even for twitter standards, it is not nice, and still most of the community still is in twitter at least most known members.

    And I understand what you say, and I know is true, but men at some point it’s just tiresome to watch. And I kinda like the language, but at the same time I wouldn’t have to like to deal with that.

    Ironically this is the nicest rust user I know or at least the less toxic: https://x.com/DrawsMiguel

    I’m not part of any community, but believe me the “rusteaceans” are the most obnoxious people I have ever seen(on twitter) and that’s saying much. At least with the racist you know that most of them are trolling. But “rustaceans” are just incredibly awful people. I mean I’m trying not to generalize, and I know that’s not everyone from that community, but they tend to be really insufferable and no, I’m not guiding myself from a “meme”

    Yeah, I mentioned openSUSE as first choice only because of Yast, I think that for people that want to set up their system mainly using a GUI is one of the best tools for that, if not the best.

Fedora is good but I prefer rolling release distros just for preferences, but usually is not difficult to set up and it has high compatibility.

    If you prefer Arch, Endeavour OS is also a good option, is my main distro right now together with openSUSE (I tend to prefer it, but the package manager can be slow)

    I would try to avoid Manjaro, for this and that, and I would recommend openSUSE instead, even Debian or maybe Mint. Fedora is kinda cool and is sometimes easier to work with.

    There are more options but in going to give you my favorites, at least for desktop:

    1. openSUSE, honestly the installer is kinda easy, specially if you are going to use just one partition, installing packages is kinda slow but overall I can say that the after install is easier that any other variant, you can use yast for almost anything.
    2. Fedora, is just easy when you are used to Linux, doesn’t break easily to my knowledge.
    3. Linux Mint, is like opensuse, but with more outdated packages.

    And Debian, the installation process is not that hard, but the packages it has are old compared to some alternatives, overall I would prefer this one, but I also like to have my packages as current as possible.
    In general most of the things should work out of the box, at least I didn’t have that much problems using something in Linux for the past five to six years.

They took any chance they could to see if they could monetize further the emulator, specially when they try to charge for the online that one time…

    You can, just say something along the lines that you want to send a message to X person using Y app. Siri will or should open the app and allow you to send the message. Just tried with WhatsApp
