You swipe down to navigate upward, and up to navigate downward. I recently spent time using a MacBook, which apparently defaults to this...

what amd driver do I use?

I recently built a new pc and since I switched from Windows to Lunux (Kubuntu) I got an amd gpu (6700 XT). Because people told me it is less of a hassle than Nvidia.

How to organize images with custom tags?

Hello! I have a bunch of photos all mixed together, and I’d like to sort them out in order to better find the ones I’m searching for without loosing half an hour. I was thinking of adding custom tags to each image (manually), like “my dog”, “trip to Paris”, “my friend X” etc. I’d like this tag system to be...

It was such an amazing feature. Something that users of proprietary systems hadn’t even heard about. We had this on desktops before things like Apple’s...
