Making stuff! Fibre crafts, gamedev, general tinkering. Occasional drawing despite being lifelong terrible at it. Making stuff for no real reason other than enjoyment of it is what life’s all about!

nobloat, in What Linux OS & Desktop Environment (DE) or Windows Manager (WM) do you use?

Debian with Sway

serpineslair, in What Linux OS & Desktop Environment (DE) or Windows Manager (WM) do you use?

Same, minus the dracula theme.

shrugal, (edited ) in How would you explain Lemmy/Kbin to a Reddit person or to a social media person?

It’s like multiple reddit sites, but they all work the same and the content and users are synced between them. So you can pick any one of them, follow topics and contact users from all of them, and if one site goes haywire we just ignore or block it and move on.

The way that I explain it is quite similar to yours. It works, but you need to emphasise

  • that unlike in Reddit, there’s no central group of admins controlling the whole thing; and
  • that each instance has its own communities, and those are equivalent to subreddits.

otherwise users start associating instances with subreddits.

scytale,

That’s how I explain it as well. It’s better than the email analogy I see all the time. Obviously using reddit as an example only works if the person you’re talking to knows what reddit is. Otherwise, I just change it to something they know (i.e. facebook, discord, etc.)

Work PC: Fedora with Gnome & Forge ext for tiling.

Laptop: currently testing Garuda KDE after jumping on it early and it being really scratchy other than the theming, it’s really matured with almost SUSE level tools.

Tumbleweed!

Snapper already saved my ass more than once when switching, then later updating, prop. nVidia drivers.

MagneticFusion, in What Linux OS & Desktop Environment (DE) or Windows Manager (WM) do you use?

Mint XFCE but soon switching to OpenSuSE Tumbleweed with Gnome

nossaquesapao, in Do you prefer to wear a smartwatch or a regular watch?

Smartwatches look like something so consumerist to me, like a desperate move from companies who are having diminishing smartphone sales, but need a constant growth to not face a crisis.

Seriously, with very few exceptions, like people who need to track health issues, I don’t see why someone would need it.

Zeoic,

They are really nice for keeping on top of notifications, but as a person who can’t stand wearing a watch but also likes to deal with notifications immediately, I am torn lol

A fitbit inspire is pretty good for that, but it’s only slightly more bearable than a full watch for me

Fondots, in Do you prefer to wear a smartwatch or a regular watch?

I really want to get onboard the smart watch thing, but my usual daily wear watch for the last decade or so has been a Casio protrek prg-550, which is solar powered so I haven’t even had to change a battery in all that time, let alone worry about charging it, so I really kind of don’t want to switch to something I have to remember to charge every day or every couple of days

teichflamme,

I’ve had a Mi band that lasted for 2 weeks.

Now I upgraded to a Garmin with Solar that lasts around 3 weeks or more depending on sun.

46_and_2,

Dumb question - would the Garmin clock with Solar charge much if you mostly spend your day indoors?

teichflamme, (edited )

If it’s in direct sunlight, e.g. near a window, it will charge quite a bit.

Otherwise not really.

I place mine near the window from time to time

Fondots,

Yeah, there are definitely a few options that have better battery life than others, but so far none of them have quite put the whole package together for me, I’m a bit picky about what software and interface I want, what kind of features and options, and most importantly I want it to look good.

The Garmin is pretty close to what I’m looking for, and has some nifty features, but after all these years wearing my protrek I’m kind of looking for something a little dressier looking for my EDC watch. The Garmin would probably be a pretty good fit for my camping and hiking and such needs, which is a main reason I got the protrek years ago, but isn’t quite what I’m looking for in my day-to-day life right now
