I got a surface pro 3 from goodwill for $99. Been running fedora on it and it runs hot the fan will get loud but honestly it’s great for reading manga with komikku or watching movies and stuff. the pro 3 works without the linux-surface kernel so that’s a plus even if it does mean it’s a little slow. gnome works great on it and it makes me wish all my laptops had a touchscreen. in tablet mode the on screen keyboard leaves a bit to be desired but I hear there’s some improvements in gnome 47 and 48 so I’m hopeful

I like it but I’m still not used to it

I guess because they want it to be done correctly but there’s plenty of opinions on the correct way to do it

swear, but it is funny

honestly glad you made the thread still cause I just love questions like this to see if I can answer them and if I can’t I learn something

well yeah obviously, 3rd party launchers that are optional to use because they serve a purpose. Forced launchers like uplay and origin are the issue. they serve no purpose and offer a worse experience for the user and are forced on your system. Back in my day when a piece of software came with something else that pops up on your screen and runs in the background bogging down your system and collecting data, we considered that a virus.

I think picking an instance is just something people will have to learn and get used to as that’s very essential to the fediverse experience.

I personally hate algorithms picking shit for me and that’s why I use lemmy and why I used reddit back when it first came out. I search out and pick what content I see on my feed.

I definitely agree with more marketing. It’s insane to think there’s a lot of people that still use reddit and never even heard of lemmy

honestly just PC gaming in general without 3rd party launchers

I want to use matrix so bad but matrix clients suck and there’s no voice channels like discord

cool guide love stuff like this

I did not know that. That is so amazing

It is insane how smooth it is it blew my mind

I love kernel mailing list drama.

that’s the main reason I moved away from lemmy.world

I think it should stay private

I just use debian cause it’s rock solid and most of what I set up are in containers or VM’S anyways

Noice, I’m surprised more people didn’t move over.

it does

Definitely think it’d be useful if it could be used as an offline reader like Kiwix

oooo. niri is a good one. I’ve had it installed on my fedora system for… Hell I don’t even know how long but I just haven’t been using it. I’ve really been wanting to use NixOS for a while but haven’t had the motivation/determination to sit down and learn it.
