  • I really don’t get it either. Like it’s some impossible task to just stop using certain apps or some shit.

    I don’t use social media(except Lemmy, I guess, if you count that(I don’t)). The only notifications I get on my phone are from texts. I haven’t touched Tiktok since 2019. I don’t scroll YouTube shorts 24/7.

    Everyone’s acting like this is some drug or addiction. And maybe it is to some, but again it goes right back to self control.

  • Read the article, just a bunch of morons who have zero self control.

    Isaacs specifically pointed to the 1990s as a time with “a lack of phones, more personal experience, but also still some of the ease of modern technology.”

    Just this alone shows they have no idea what the 90s were like.

    “Waaah my phone does too much, I just want an iPod!”

    Delete social media, download Spotify and boom, your phone is an iPod again. Or turn off all notifications on your phone and buy one of those iPod clones.

    “Gen Z” acting like the world was better before social media but they have no idea how to function without social media. If they went in the theoretical time machine back to the 90s they’d have a mental breakdown trying to find their way to the local McDonald’s.

  • Just a bad title. It’s “Ubuntu Certified”, as Canonical has added it to their certified program.

    Framework, the company, has stated that Ubuntu and Fedora work well on their devices and that Fedora is(was?) recommended.

    I got my Framework 13 in early 2026 and been running CachyOS on it since day one. Haven’t had any incompatibility issues at all.

    The “Ubuntu Certified” label is supposed to help schools and businesses use it for purchasing power to say “oh these repairable laptops are also officially supported by Ubuntu” if they wanted to use Ubuntu in the workplace.
