    At first cryptos had a true value, as in people wanted it and saw the potential of the coin itself, and not of the price it had, thus raising the prices. Then it changed. Capitalists with their huge capital started playing the market. So instead of the cryptos having a monetary value based on their actual value to society, they got their monetary value from previously monetary values. This means that the value of the cryptos shifted towards how much value it could provide to the people investing in them.

    At this point anybody with half a brain should have stopped caring about the actual monetary value of cryptos. Bitcoin was made for one thing and that was to be a decentralized alternative far away from any government. And now you have one government, that only consists of a mere 5% of all humans, that somehow made the market crash? Everybody that doesn’t think this is beyond crazy is getting played, hard.



  • Isn’t there a saying about this? “Leopards ate my face” or something like that?

    “Leopards at my face” comes from claiming that your face would not get eaten while advocating for leopards eating faces.

    If you would use it in the context of ads, it would be more along the lines of claiming you will not get ads because you are “special” while the thing just straight up says it will serve you ads.

    I don’t think the thing is advertised as something to serve you ads, so it’s not the same.


  • Pretty decent, but there’s a few things I think should be improved:

    • Logos !!!
    • Instead of having a chain of distros as an answer, make a nice group and don’t point towards any one of them. I’m still trying to figure out if you have some sort of ranking going on.
    • The split after “Windows or Mac? -> Mac -> <similar> or <similar and user friendly>” is weird and should probably be a question and differently phrased.
    • Immutability is misspelled and not explained. The gradient also makes it looks more special than the others (while it’s just a difference). Maybe an asterisk with an explanation at the bottom would be better for this.
    • At one point you use “Please” instead of “Yes”. I understand the joke, but people who could actually use this flowchart might not.
    • SteamOS is not a viable distro choice. (For now at least) I would suggest removing it until it actually becomes one.
    • “Are you a developer” has 4 answers but could be split into “Yes” and “No” with their own GPU questions.
    • White on yellow/orange is hard to read.
    • White on pink is readable but could be made easier to read.
    • Maybe a better font would great too
    • You could also add some Lemmy/Reddit/forum URLs where users could get Linux help.
    • You could also add some information like “Just looking for a Linux laptop? Buy System76” or something (I’m not up to date with decent Linux laptop vendors)

    You are open to critique so I hope you don’t mind this many points.
