I support what the others say, it’s cool if you can pay, but it’s not a must IMO. If you’re fine with the base tier, or can’t/don’t want to pay for more, there’s no shame in that.
Shelter works fine to keep two accounts, which should be enough hopefully, otherwise you will have to use the web client.
There was an experimental app that allowed you to have a potentially unlimited number of duplicate apps (twoyi), but it’s sadly discontinued, there’s also another called MultiApp, but there’s something yiffy about it I can’t quite put into words
I tried reading through it and I don’t understand completely if they reserve the right to relicense in a way that is against the interest of contributor.
They say that the contributor retains the copyright and can do whatever they want with the code they contributed, which is good, they also say that they can sublicense your contributions, which, as far as I know, means they couldn’t make it more permissive, but only more restrictive, at least that is the case with Creative Commons
Every year or so I try one or more privacy focused keyboards. I always end up right back on SwiftKey after a couple of weeks because most of the keyboards I try have the same problem: the predictions suck....
It’s underrated, but it has so much untouched potential to make it really shine and it is unfortunately still a bit unintuitive to use.
I wonder if it will ever get some love again by the devs, because it’s clear that the focus is 99% on the 3D aspect of things right now and it will most likely be so for a long time to come, for good reasons of course, the advancements there have been astounding and really needed because they’re THE libre 3D animation software, while there are already other established libre video editors out there, so there is less necessity. But I still believe that if Blender was to ever give a refresh to the VSE, it would immediately outclass all the other options
I’ve been a software engineer for 10 years now but want to work with Linux more in a professional setting (not to mention the number of layoffs in the the dev industry has me thinking a backup plan might be a good idea). I have been using Linux exclusively on my personal machine for about 15 years now so I’m not too worried...
I’ll try again some time to check, but last time I had trouble with some apps installed on openSUSE WSL, like some theming issues and some apps not opening (probably relying on system components as you say)
I’m in the market for a Linux friendly ultralight laptop to check web apps and run terminal, nothing fancier then that. Do any cheap systems exits these days? I was looking at a chrome book but apparently the mediatek chip doesn’t play nicely with FOSS....

apologies for coming back with another question so quick, but im at a loss im trying to get a plugin that lets you show live translations of what you are saying on stream. I found a few but…its not working to say the least....
I understand that, it’s definitely more of a headache than having a native package, but it is the next best thing you can do aside from waiting for the dev or someone else to package it for your distro of choice (you might be more lucky if you’re on an Arch based system, I’m sure an AUR package will be made if it hasn’t been done already).
The distrobox setup itself isn’t really that crazy either, once you have everything ready you’ll be able to run OBS as if it was installed on your host system since you can export the programs in your containers to have a desktop entry in your DE.
Now I was trying to get all that up and running, but I’m facing issues in the installation of the plugin and I don’t know what’s causing that exactly, it may be a mismatch in the distro I chose and which one the package was actually made for, I’ll report back if I find a solution, in the meantime here’s what I did:

There is none yet that I know of.
But I think something has to be said as well: the problem with copying to the T the most popular social networks is that those are designed to be deliberately predatory and addictive, many parts of their design is implemented in alternatives without even thinking what it really means for the users, because it has become second nature to us and they also feel good, but are mostly detrimental exactly for that and I’m the first to say that I keep falling for it, spending hours on end on my phone. Think infinite scrolling, instant notifications, etc.
While it’s good to have the option, if we want a healthier social media experience, it doesn’t suffice to decentralize it, we also need to think of at least better defaults, then let the users decide for themselves if they want a more addicting experience
Arrrr my fellow pirates. Since I’m very unexperienced with the seas I ask for you guys, where can I get Minecraft from for Arch Linux. It’s not because I’m not willing to pay 20€ but because Microsoft is a giant bitch and I’m not willing to put money in their mouth(especially after they changed their privacy policy).
That you get through the launcher, of course it’s not hosted on GitHub, you can download several different versions of Minecraft from it, there’s no trouble with that.
I never wondered how they get them exactly, but I think it might be a direct download from the official sources and then some patches applied after the fact to “crack” it (do note I could be totally off on this one).
You also get mod support with it, I instantly got the gamepad mod for example and it’s all been working flawlessly, though the documentation could use some work, it was quite confusing to me.
