    As a poly person: no, it is not a “affiar-tolerant monogamy”. That is an open relationship.

    Polyamorous partnerships are far more committed. Also, sex is not always a part of it.

    Of course there is the concept of a primary partner, but there are lot of poly folks that thislike this idea.

    But what all of those relationships have in common: there is no case where only one partner is poly. All is about communication and consent.

    And to the core topic: There is this thing like a polycule. A network of people with somehow connected relationships. Breakups in those structures are often consensual and no big fuzz. But if it gets dirty, at least in my experience, the offending member of the polycoule gets shown the door. And most of the times, those are the new ones. People that think the could convince their partner to get monogamous because they are the only one that is needed.

    Sorry for the long post, you hit a nerve there ;)






  • There us so much wrong with this article. From installing a fucking browser via flatpack, over ignoring the fact that office 365 is a thing to the fact that there are alternatives to Adobe.

    Sure, not everything is perfect right now, and people have to learn new stuff.

    I have migrated multiple people to fedora in the last two years. And guess what, regardless of type or age of user, they had no troubles with it to this day. They use gimp, play, have browsers with password managers, and write office documents. Yes. MS office.

    Articles like this are one reason why people hesitate to make the switch. Doompainting, that’s all it is.

    And what the hell are you talking about vrr? Kde, sway and hyperland support it for years now under wayland. Gnome still does not have it, but that is gnome.

    And if more distributions would not per default use gnome, such misconceptions wouldn’t exist in the first place.
