The distro shouldn’t matter too much, but the desktop environment will.
I recommend using KDE if you want something similar to Windows, and GNOME if you want something similar to macOS.
Using a GUI also isn’t really dependent on the DE either for most programs. It’s dependent on whether or not a GUI for it exists in the first place.
Patreon stopped being benevolent years ago when they changed their pricing model to exploit small donors more.
Send money directly using Monero. Avoid as much ‘overhead’ as possible.
Why? Haven’t you noticed the apple userbase is filled with morons who are proud to make rich people richer?
See? Apple users are as dumb as a sack of diapers and deserve to be taken advantage of accordingly.
That would be nice, but when Apple says “jump,” all the other businesses ask “how high?”
The world is full of morons with more money than sense.
Why does Apple feel they deserve a 30% cut?
Because they can. Time and time again, useful idiots have proven their dipshittery by sucking off the people taking them for a ride.
A main tenant of business decisions is to fuck over your customers as hard as they’re willing to be fucked. Since nobody has any standards these days, corporations make a killing.
The game is made up of dipshit players mostly working against their own interests.
What exactly does Apple think that they’re brining to the equation in order to deserve that 30?
Apple users are some of the dumbest people on the planet. Most of them will gleefully support paying more to make the company richer.
Why are those not being considered.
Because people are stupid 🤷.
Direct payments with Monero seems like the best option.
Everything else takes a cut, which they do not deserve.
Yes! Exploit the morons as much as they’re willing to be exploited!
None of them have the brains/balls to fight back.
AI is just the next form of control after businesses have already infiltrated online forums.
