There was never a last straw for me, because I never subscribed to any bullshit. I read and understood the dangers of SaaS as a school kid long before the term was cool and long before privacy community and corporate industry popularised it. Unless something really requires realtime work collaboration, like Google Docs/Office 365, or if there are realtime social activities like multiplayer gaming or messaging/chat/videocall, just about everything else does not require an active internet connection, and should be doable locally on a system. This is why devices like iPhone, iPad, Chromebooks and so on are NOT real computers, but merely rented kiosks.
Ok, good for you, lol.

Tagging communities with r/ don't work on Lemmy.
You need to clear your foggy head and get some sleep. Your cheeky comment was BS and your comeback was too lame. Strengthen your game if you want to do these kind of replies.
Also someone else downvoted you.
I just thought that your sentence about being the first, was stupid and something a 5 heard old would say. It was admittedly funny.
And then I wanted to inform you that r/ doesn't work on Lemmy, just in case you didn't know. !communityname@example.com is the correct format.
No offense meant.
You came here 2 weeks ago. Open and check my account history... (๋_๋)
What does that have to do with your earlier statement?
I am speechless, astounded, astonished and flabbergasted all at the same time. You need to be in a museum.
Alright kiddo. ( อกยฐ อส อกยฐ)
You can install Linux on them and make them real computers, though. Right? Right?
You can, but then they lack processing power. But they do become light computing machines.
