KDE creates a safe haven for Windows 10 exiles.
In the context of the @Endof10 campaign, we have created a new “for” page, this time “for Windows 10 exiles”:
https://kde.org/for/w10-exiles/
In it we explain how Linux with Plasma can help users escape the deranged cycle of having to buy a new computer every time Microsoft force-upgrades their operating system.
@turtle my response to this? Skip the CDJs and just do live eurorack performance. Have I successfully done this yet? No. 😭
That sounds wild! I’m not a DJ but have some interest in it.
@turtle it is wild! and difficult! hence why i have not done it yet lol but at least i won’t be at the mercy of a predatory business model anymore
@djsf@fosstodon.org I can imagine! Are there any DJ controller manufacturers that are more reasonable in either supporting older hardware or making it more open so it’s easier for other software to support?
@turtle None that I’m aware of. And part of the problem is that almost all clubs use Pioneer. And when you perform you gotta use what they have, especially if you are part of a lineup.
@djsf@fosstodon.org I see. Sorry to hear.
