Nosism is well established in the English language; I can’t even see what you’re talking about in the OP; but had I seen ‘we’ in place of ‘I’ or ‘Me’, I would have taken it to mean the context is the application, rather than the developer.

Also, a team can be one person.

Well, they have a point.

I feel like seagulls are the perfect method for ad delivery

Seconded. I have endeavourOS on my desktop and mint on my laptops.

Endeavour (arch based) is great for people who like to tinker with the setup whereas mint is ootb ready to go, with most UX features ex windows users would expect.

I used to recommend elementary OS to Mac users, and mint to windows. Now I recommend mint to all, and to customise it to mimic Mac; if that’s what’s desired… As it’s just so damn stable in comparison.

If you’re familiar in any capacity with self hosted tech. Id suggest checking out matrix servers. I setup one for family and friends a few months back. Currently it’s only running on a 2 core 8 gig ram vps with around 15 regular users, and ticks over fine. It’s routinely used as a phone chat client like WhatsApp, as well as for voice channels instead of discord.

You can utilise multiple different clients; but I would suggest element, as they’re the closest to WhatsApp, and therefore the easiest for people to adopt. (Afaik, it’s the only matrix client with voice & video call support too).

Matrix servers run on the concept of decentralised federated servers, with the idea that as the technology expands, admins can federate with other matrix servers and allow cross communication (in much the same way the fediverse works).

Good old fashioned tribalism.

They should’ve known; it’s not like he was called McGruff the good dog.
