    Also, how many of these sales are actually leases?

    This is just my personal experience, but thenumber of people I know who had always paid cash for a late model used car in the past who leased for the first time because of their income excluded them from taking advantage of the tax credits is shocking. I think many of these people will likely go back to an ICE option if the cost hasn't come down or they aren't offered a deal on the buy out option.

    It's going to be a VERY interesting market in 2-3 years.

  • @Abraxas@feddit.uk Never banned. Started exploring alternatives during API changes. Staying on federated because it makes more sense.

    Everyone understand how ridiculous it would if you could only email people on same email service, but for some reason we accepted that limitation as normal for social posts for many years.

    @return2ozma@lemmy.world That's a pretty short sighted view considering just ~150 years ago the Democrats were the party against abolishing slavery. Times change, but American politics really don't.

    Limiting the choice to the lesser of two evils only benefits one of the classes in the real fight. As Alaska (since 2022) and NYC (this week) have shown, RCV allows voters to select who they really want to lead regardless of whether polls say they are "wasting" their vote.

    I think the new Drupal CMS install profile + Recipes via the Project Browser makes Drupal MUCH easier to maintain than WP for anyone already familar with Composer or other package managers like npm, gem, homebrew, etc

    The idea that most WP sites (that aren't hosted by WP.com) are still maintained by downloading the plugin files from WP.org and then uploading the files to the site blows my mind.

  • @danishdude1944@feddit.dk my parents bought my brothers and I an Apple IIc a year before the first Mac made it obsolete. We had a Commodore 64 with a cassette tape drive for games.

    The first computer I bought with my own (borrow student loan) money was a 120MHz Mac 8500. I bought it before I graduated, took it to the graphic design lab and cloned one of the lab 8500 drives with all the software onto it. A few years later I ended up working at that same university and disposing of hundreds of worthless 8500s.

    I was still paying mine off :(

    If you are going to evaluate Drupal in 2025, I STRONGLY encourage you to start with the Drupal CMS install. There are so many optional modules with Drupal, it can be overwhelming.

    If you are already familiar with Docker, you can spin up a Drupal CMS instance using DDEV. You'll have no problem Googling that.

    If you aren't familiar with Docker and want to try it, https://new.drupal.org/drupal-cms/launcher is a ridiculously easy way to start on most operating systems. That approach gets a little trickier when you want to move the site/cms application instance to a host. There is documentation, but I would look it over before getting too far into this approach.

    My recommendation for spinning up a Drupal CMS instance is on a free sandbox on https://docs.pantheon.io/drupal-cms. Acquia offers a free trial in exchange for the information they need to target you with marketing, but it is only a 4 hour trial. Pantheon lets you keep your sandbox as long as you account remains active.

    Unfortunately ActivityPub isn't included in any of the Drupal CMS Recipes (yet), so you have to add it with composer require 'drupal/activitypub:^1.0@alpha'.

    Composer is npm for PHP. If you are familiar npm, apt-get, homebrrw, pip, gem, etc, you'll have no problem understanding Composer.

    Many years ago I worked on a project with some FSF staff who refused to use non-FOSS solutions to coordinate or conduct meetings. While the developers involved where all prolific contributors to open source projects used by millions of people, they were all willing to compromise on some of the tools we use to develop and communicate for "the greater good". The FSF staff weren't willing to make those compromises. At the time I was frustrated by this. As Slack ownership changed, costs increased and policies around what they could do with "our" data evolved, I now have a lot more respect for the FSF staff who are "holding the line".

    It can be, but a large percentage of WP installs aren't even blogs that manage posts over time. They are basic 20-30 brochure-ware sites that use WP as a page builder.

    WP is popular with .edu sites where they are managing thousands of structured content types; faculty profiles, academic programs, events, etc.

    Drupal is also a popular solution for that type of project where managing a large amount of structured data is a key feature.

    My experience has been that WP needs to "built up" to handle large site while Drupal needs to "burned down" to be a good fit for small, page building projects.

    Though Drupal's new preconfigured Drupal CMS installer with "recipes" for different use cases is making it a better option for smaller site projects.

    The amount of design elements (HTML beyond text markdown like divs) and pseudocode (elements that only render when parsed before delivering to the browser) that end up in the content is something to consider. Enabling a text editor alone does not tell you much. You can support easier bold, italic and strike though with a structured data approach.

    It's when you get into creating layouts in the editor that really differentiants a page builder from a content management solution.

  • @Cris_Color@lemmy.world being nice helps establish the "tone", but I'm not sure that wouldn't change with another "API event" on Reddit that results in another, larger mass migration.

    Another suggestion I have for college graduates is to ask your alma mater if they are going to start using something other than commercial social to engage with alumni.

    Most universities don't want to make mistakes investing in the bleeding edge, but they are quick to follow. When a few schools do something, many more quickly copy that. They are also looking for low cost wins. Their engagement numbers are already telling them that Xwiiter no longer works to reach alumni or potential students.

    If even a handful of alumni suggest a change at the right time, that is often enough to get them to give federated social a try.

    That is when the less toxic "tone" really helps.
