We need more Linux marketing and more Linux hardware shops like Tuxedo Computers, SlimbookES, Purism, etc.

Hopefully the Steam Deck is contributing here too.

onlinepersona,

How does it not compete with MS Paint 😅 What are you on about, mate?

onlinepersona,

Encrypted mail providers should require a bridge in order to be able to pull or send emails with. Protonmail has “Proton Bridge”, tutanota has nothing. I see now that disroot, fastmail and posteo have direct SMTP access 🤔 That leads me to question: what actually is encrypted? Direct SMTP and IMAP access probably means they can read your mail.

onlinepersona,

Whatever you want to convince yourself of, bud. Never buying hardware from Apple ever.

onlinepersona,

They don’t compete, they sue or buy out.

onlinepersona,

Same. I’d love it if RISC-V came out with a competing chip.

onlinepersona,

Torrenting over TOR doesn’t make you anonymous. How is that misleading?

onlinepersona,

How does veilid compare to I2P?

onlinepersona,

I keeps getting brought up because TOR is the most popular anonymizing network. It’s not far-fetched to think “how can I make myself anonymous while torrenting?” search for “how to be anonymous online”, find TOR and put two and two together. It happens all the time, which is why the blog post by TOR was made about it.

onlinepersona,

Depends. It’s definitely smaller than TOR because people don’t know of it. It’s slower, but if you don’t need things on demand, have a seedbox or some way to torrent 24/7, things are quite acceptable.

onlinepersona,

That’s great for you and the community, as you aren’t torrenting over TOR 👍

Dolphin has split panels… Hit F3

onlinepersona,

So, gnome is an alternative desktop environment and it’s great that they exist. If they inspired Apple’s UI or the other way around, doesn’t matter but they are the Apple UI of Linux. Mac users switching to Linux can have a somewhat familiar experience.

That said, their “we know better than you what you want, luser” attitude makes it hard for me not to grin when someone rants about their stuff. It shouldn’t, because they are probably mostly unpaid contributors and their work should be valued, but once in a while…

onlinepersona,

Imagine recommended reddit on “itsfoss”.

onlinepersona,

There are opensource chat options with no limits. Notably, Jitsi. No need to go proprietary.

onlinepersona,

Wow, that’s great! Watched a video of what it looks like and this is very close to what I’d want from a watch party!
