I’m reading this on Boost (once off payment) and no ads…

Yes Linux Mint. You CAN migrate later to other distros without losing your data so feel free to test others out later when you feel ready and know more about them.

Looking for Notes App for Android & Linux

I am trying to slowly de-Google-ify myself by moving to open source apps, I wanna ditch google notes and evernote. I tried obsidian, standard notes, and joplin, I liked using obsidian on PC and standard notes looks nice on android but obsidian you need to pay to have sync and standard notes doesn’t do markdown unless you pay...

I actually use Obsidian on my Linux desktop, synced with Syncthing to my Android phone, iPad, home server, etc (have version control also active to keep older copies of notes). Mainly because the volume of notes I do is on the desktop, and I need them for reference everywhere. But I’m not sure Obsidian is best as a phone app (bit busy), but you could test it with a simple UI.

Interesting, I see Orgzly uses Org mode formatting in plain text - orgmode.org/features.html

You can though search, hit TAB, and then do edits to the line before executing. That is pretty handy if it is something complex across a few machines with a specific change.

Atuin only has styles really but if you mean the bash prompt, I’m using Starship prompt.

But like most other things you’d chroot in and disable it? I think though whatever fills up your disk is probably going to prevent a proper boot up.

I think a lot of other OS things are going to break when a disc gets full… But you can also delete history within Atuin.

Fast to open, search, sync compared to? To answer generally, though - no lags or long waiting for anything to happen.

They know little about open source. Microsoft is exclusively in schools and government, and that is what they grow up with. They probably know more about pirating Windows, than using Linux legally. There is also a good kick-back in terms of MS license mark-ups for middle-men businesses. One would hope there is some mandatory education around different OSs as I’m sure kids would love to explore and modify software.

Konsave lets you save, apply and share Linux desktop theme customisations (lemmy.ml)

KDE, especially, is known for its amazing themes and theme customisations. With that can come lots of tweaking, and then forgetting how to get back to what you really liked. Or maybe you want to share that fantastic theme combination that you got right with friends....

Thanks, yes that is actually a slightly more comprehensive backup, looking at their GitHub project at github.com/vikdevelop/SaveDesktop, and they have a Flatpak installation as well.
