Why TF is discord on the list for “best community chat app”‽ That shit should be disqualified.

Not OP, but maybe because it is a survey from a Linux group and discord has treated Linux like 2nd class citizens since 2015 and they don’t give a flying fuck about making the experience as good on Linux as windows. It is an afterthought.
And it is not like they did anything special at all this year to warrant a “of the year” award. Discord has been out for almost a decade. That is like saying windows is OS of the year when they have done almost nothing but bad decisions this year and the OS is already been out for a long time.
There’s a dearth of options, honestly. I was tempted to write “none of the above” for the chat app section.
I wish the questions weren’t mandatory. I am only knowledgeable enough to fairly answer 5 or so of the questions.
I don’t like that all of the questions are mandatory. For some of them, I just haven’t done enough with whatever it is to have an opinion and would not be able to provide good data.
It’s crazy not to have openmediavault or to ever discuss it on their shows. But I guess when the inferior competition like UnRAID is paying them to boost sales it’s better to ignore one of the best server distros for selfhosters. It is literally built for small business and home servers and it’s debian underneath which is great for power users that find shit like UnRAID limiting and shady.
They have different projects there each year, but it’s based on what people talk about and use. AFAIK, there has been almost none links for updates to OMV here on Lemmy for example nor do I personally hear about it very often.
Also, they’d didn’t even include Unraid as an option in this survey so it’s a bit weird to call them out for that?
Yes they do have some advertising, but it’s completely tracking free and not those stupid dynamic adds other podcasts go for. It’s not an easy job keeping multiple podcasts series alive with barely any advertising. So in this case I’m happy unraid sponsor them, it’s highly relevant to the show/listeners and it’s an amazing NAS OS.
I’m sure OMV is a great OS, but compared to other options such as TrueNAS or proxmox it’s nearly never mentioned.
They’ve moved on to Proxmox and NixOS for self hosting/NAS purposes. I don’t think OMV is being intentionally ignored, they just don’t use it anymore themselves.
