Hopefully they actually killed that contract and not just saying it for clout. They better have a plan to still provide better Internet services to these communities.

My wife’s family had to deal with shitty xplornet services for years while living in the sticks. They literally had no internet for weeks and xplornet was like “we don’t see any issues on our end”. It took multiple calls to actually get a tech to finally come out, but then said nothing’s wrong and left it at that, despite no internet still. Xplornet just eventually started ignoring their calls. They got starlink and haven’t had an issue since. It sucks that it’s owned by Elon “the man-child Nazi” Musk, who could just decide to cut off services in Canada. Doesn’t help our own telecoms are dog shit in their own way either. It’s long overdue getting the rural and remote communities access to Internet in Canada.

Good point, I had forgotten that the Liberal leadership race is underway. I’d personally be fine with either of them as the liberal party leader. But in the end, I’d rather the NDP be given a chance at governing.

Hopefully, but we won’t know until the election actually happens and the votes are counted.

Seems like there’s multiple different problems people are having, which is unfortunate. Mine was an actual popup error stating that the server was unavailable or a different version which was strange. Sometimes it lets me in now and sometimes it doesn’t.

I keep getting an error with pixelfed.social as well, likely due to the influx lately. I’m hoping for dark mode soon as well. It’ll improve with time, but it’s been a bit of a rough go with the attention it’s getting.

Today I learned! Good to know, it was worth a shot lol.

If you don’t mind sharing the invite link as a few others have mentioned, I’d be interested. Shoot me a DM if you are up for it

It really isn’t that hard to bypass the windows 11 account setup. There’s literally a CMD function to make it so you can skip it on a new machine. Fucking Elon can’t take 2 seconds to figure something out on his own before blasting anyone else because of his incompetence.
