I love Void, but I personally find that Arch is much better supported overall in terms of packages and the AUR. I haven't tried Void recently though so maybe I should give it another go and help contribute.

The best way to get a company to do anything is through public disclosure, however it is reasonable to reach out to them first, anonymously (so that they don't sue you or kill you), and hope that they are descent people too.

I would like them to review my numerous fake profile reports to Facebook, which they ignored... it was probably in the 100s during this last election. They failed to act and I am pretty sure that they promote, allow and encourage the use of bots and fake accounts on their social network as it helps inflate their user count.

This makes him vulnerable to blackmail and other things. It is a huge national security risks and in fact I am pretty sure why the USA was formed in the first place, was in the best interests and security of the citizens.

This immediate got pulled from the front page, wondering if they are trying to censor it. When is the trial?

Let me know when they open source their spyware OS and then we'll talk. Until then you are just continuing to campaign for exploiting educational tools by locking them down so that students can't understand why they are getting forced upgrades, always getting viruses, and having their shopping and browsing information sent to Microsoft Moscow or Mossad.

You're actually not far off. They are the biggest threats. Have you ever noticed that all of Microsoft releases gets leaked by Russian groups like WZor? Russia has long been releasing betas and alphas of Windows before anyone else, and no one has questioned how or why?

That is simply not true. Google has been a much stronger supporter of open source. Ever heard of Android? What about Kubernetes? Chromium?

Also, Google Docs supports exporting to ODS and other document formats... in addition to automatic conversion into Google Drive.

Atom 1.25 8 years ago

Too many people in here running PR for Microsoft. VS Code is just as terrible, if not worse, than Atom.. and built using the same bloated framework.

Little silly how? They literally provide no information about their changes. How many phones do you think they were forced onto? I guarantee you a majority of their subscribers are soon to join their OS providers native file sharing service, and for good reason. Google Drive provides an entire online application stack for third-party developers and a simple API. Google Photos is great as well, as it has the best object and face recognition software.

OneDrive actually does the same pretty well too, and integrates with their native Office Suite. There is really not a good reason to select Dropbox at this point, unless you are just working PR for them.
