You’ll know you completed the installation successfully when you look down and see the socks have materialised
You can set a community to only allow moderators to post
Could use a Lemmy community I guess
Do you know what they didn’t like about Mint? If it’s just the DE (which I imagine covers most of the look and feel for a beginner) then there are three different defaults to try.
Neat! Other replies saying it doesn’t work on their machine, I’ll have to try it out in a few different environments.
No idea, what I linked is a built-in feature of Lemmy (every community has an RSS feed) but you’d have to ask OP about how their custom communities are created
Even better, you can then follow those communities as an RSS feed!
Seems like it’s terminal-emulator-specific rather than a built-in shell feature
To use the last argument of the last ran command, use the

Sounds like a poor-man’s !$
to me!
I think you are blind (or maybe your version of the website is being truncated?)
It is an interesting history of email though, it’s only the final 10% that even mentions bitcoin.
You can just create a throwaway account for GitHub
I know I’m getting off-topic, but the last time I tried this it ended up being locked either because it didn’t like a simplelogin email or because I didn’t give it a phone number. Hopefully that was an edge case but I haven’t tried again recently.
I started using GitHub before Microsoft bought it, what should I be using instead? GitLab? Codeberg? Something else?
I asked a similar question last month, there were some really detailed replies in there which you might find helpful
I think it used to be called “cloudready” until Google bought it and made it official. It seems like it’s aimed more at businesses and schools that want a fleet of Chromebooks, but it seems alright for the casual tinkerer too.
ChromeOS Flex is an interesting one; it’s definitely not as flexible as a proper Linux distro but if you need something simple and hard-to-break to run on an old machine (for instance for an elderly relative who’s still using Windows XP) then it could be worth a shot. That said, I’m now investigating whether Linux Mint is a better choice for my own elderly relatives!
Not an actual answer, but I think a Chromebook reaching EoL doesn’t mean it stops getting all updates. I think it’s something along the lines of it stops getting firmware updates but it still gets browser updates, though worth checking exactly what’s happening on your specific device. If you’re feeling crazy you can even try installing ChromeOS Flex on it and it should miraculously be “supported” again.
Aside from all the usual points that everyone else has already made: automation. Scripting stuff on Linux is relatively simple, trying to fuck about with powershell or work around a tool that’s GUI-only is infuriating.
It’s probably not mandatory, I imagine the arch wiki explains all the details
