Found the guy who never worked a union job.

Its a very true dichotomy.

Hey let's hire Ashok for this position! He's really good!

Oops, sorry. Bob Whiteman has been here for 30 years. He's just good enough not to fire but he has seniority so he gets first dibs on the job.

Hey, let's give Ashok a raise! He's really good!

Oops, sorry. Bob Whiteman has been here for 30 years. He's just good enough not to fire. It he's been here the longest so he gets paid the most.

The false dichotomy is assuming your choices are a massive adversarial bureaucracy or not making a living wage.

That doesn't have anything to do with what I said.

I don't think its too bad, but it probably depends a lot on a lot of factors.

Since I first started my hardware got a lot stronger, and nextcloud, php, and mariadb have all improved and so my experience has gotten pretty decent.

Remember though, there's a ton of biases here, so I could be wrong...

My experiences with Nextcloud have been on another level in general. Really positive. I use it for a lot of things including notes, and its been really solid.

Nextcloud Notes has become my go-to (Oh look, SJ is advocating for Nextcloud again! How original!)

If Lenovo had better marketing, their decent lower cost phones should be dominating the market totally.

Friendica is interesting because it's fundamentally different than a lot of the others. It supports ActivityPub, but also other protocols. The view is fundamentally threaded. It supports groups so some parts of the threadiverse can federate with it in that regard and presumably it could too. It also supports RSS, so you can get content from outside the fediverse.

I liked it, especially with a custom skin I set up. My big problem was that it has a php back-end and I needed something way lighter for my tiny at the time server, so I went with pleroma.

I'm cheap.

So far, Conduit is the only answer for me, since I don't own any quantum supercomputers.
