  • Which is funny. I get MLS season pass with my season ticket. I had to jump through so many hoops just to ACTIVATE this free thing. You can’t just visit a website. You need an account with a credit card. You either use an Apple device or iTunes. You can’t use their app on any platform (even the one youre going to use to watch it) to activate. Big thing is you cant even get iTunes on Linux without a huge hassle and wine. This isn’t even getting into that the android mobile app wasn’t even released till this year, like three years in.

    The whole experience convinced me to NEVER buy anything Apple.













  • I think it depends who you ask.

    As a linux admin, I don’t mind it and actually really appreciate it. It’s a robust system like you said and though a bit persnickety on resolving things, does its job well.

    As a home user, I find that mostly you shouldn’t know it ever exists anyhow. The one time you might would be podman volume issues (when you forget or don’t know to append a z/Z) or when you’re doing something odd. I can see how some would dislike it in that case.

    But in any case I fully recommend running it and just learning how to use it. Kind of like IPv6. It’s misunderstood, too often disabled, and should be more widespread. They both are really improvements to what came before. Just technology that takes a little more time to learn is all.

    Here is a helpful video explaining it- https://youtu.be/_WOKRaM-HI4
