This comment feels at odds with what you said about traffic being preferable to tolls. Although I suppose public transport is slower if you design a city around the concept of "fuck you, got mine".

Why would they host something like Lemmy or Mastodon? I'm sure their development communities and employees use something like email, IRC, Matrix or Slack to communicate internally. Creating a federated instance of something doesn't make sense for them unless it would help work towards their organisational goals.

I reflexively deny all or as many cookies as I can, and I have never had a site not work; to my knowledge they all work perfectly.

Universities are not monoliths, to me it seems like the desire for a merger was a top-down motivation (i.e. by top level management) that faced strong opposition bottom-up (staff and faculty).

apt is to Debian and Ubuntu what dnf is to RHEL-based distros (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, Alma/Rocky) or zypper is to SUSE-based distros. RPM's equivalent is dpkg

In my case I was ecosystem'd into RPM and Flatpak, so openSUSE makes me happy

That's a very interesting anecdote, now that you say it
