const_void,

There are way way too many testimonials here lately about switching to Linux or installing Arch, etc. These aren’t interesting.

const_void,

I find DarkReader to be pretty slow. You might want to look at Stylus. It works on a per site basis but it’s much faster.

const_void,

Brave is shite

const_void,

Did you file a bug report with the Sunshine devs?

const_void,

System 76, Framework or Tuxedo. Ignore the people telling you to buy a 10 year old Thinkpad.

const_void,

Coreboot would be nice, but it doesn’t seem feasible yet…

Why not?

const_void,

Yeah, that’s incorrect. System 76 is producing machines with modern CPUs that use coreboot:

const_void,

I’ve tried it before but found it to be too cumbersome. I went back to just doing it all manually. Music isn’t pirated and organized in the same way TV and movies are.

"Must Try" distros and DEs?

Hey folks! I’m getting a fresh laptop for the first time in about a decade (Framework 16) in a couple of months and am looking forward to doing some low-level tinkering both on the OS and hardware. I’m planning to convert into a “cyberdeck” with quick-release hinges for the screen since I usually use an HMD, built-in...

const_void,

Yikes. What is it about Hyperland that attracts these kinds of people?

const_void,

What Plasma 6 features are you looking forward to?

Hey 👋 dear Linux Community,

I'm still kinda new to Linux (started using this year 😅) I already made it to my main OS, even if I still missing some things which I used on Windows, anyway. What I wanted to ask you guys, what recommendations do you have for Linux Mint (Cinnamon)? In terms of security, optimization, (a way to make the UI looking modern ;-;) and privacy? I would be very interested in what you do guys to optimize your Linux setup :) I'm pretty technical, so there is nothing which could overwhelm me (probaly).

Thx! 🤍

const_void,

We need a sticky for these questions. “recommend me a distro” posts are getting really old.

const_void,

planet.kde.org - Mainly focused on KDE but has a lot of other great tech news too.

const_void,

My gf always wants to “stay up late” but usually ends up falling asleep first.

const_void,

I’m always for more software but Linux has editors locked down pretty well already :)

const_void,

I’m worried about the HP firmware-bios thingy. Does it call home?

It’s for these kinds of reasons we should be demanding open source firmware from major vendors or only buying hardware from vendors that already have open source firmware (System 76, Tuxedo, etc).

const_void,

Plus their computer is probably still running proprietary firmware

const_void,

Strawberry has built-in support for ListenBrainz.

const_void,

Audacious with Winamp classic skin

const_void,

How many AUR packages do you actually use? It’s mostly Electron “apps” anyway.

const_void,

I wish more computers shipped with Coreboot these days so we could avoid these kinds of proprietary firmware inflicted problems.

const_void,

Navidrome

const_void,

Fixing?

const_void,

Are other distros not serious? I don’t understand what this is.
