@qaz@lemmy.world

I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as qaz@lemmy.ml until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in Linux, FOSS, and several other subjects.

You do know you can try it without installing it on your drive, right?

qaz,

You can also use live boot to test it.

Next smartphone I buy, which one do you recommend?

Things that make me angry about my current smartphone Samsung Galaxy S21Ultra on a Verizon plan is the mandatory software updates in which they install WITHOUT MY PERMISSION stupid apps like Netflix and addictive gambling games and stacking block games and Candy crush. God knows what else they install without my permission. I...

qaz,

GrapheneOS, a privacy/security focused operating system is compatible with a limited amount of devices. The pixel series is part of those compatible devices.

The earth is moving at 107226km/h, they would be moving anyway.

qaz,

I’ve donated to KDE before and plan on doing again. I plan on increasing the frequency when I graduate and have a job.

qaz,

NixOS sounds good on paper but in reality it is a long way from a mature product for desktop or general use.

It’s 20 years old already, will it ever be ready at this point?

Have you heard of Logseq? It’s a FOSS Obsidian alternative.

Yes

I actually quite like the current breeze style with the sharper edges, it sets it apart from other designs.

qaz,

This reminds me of the Deathworlders series.

€300 euro for a device with such low specs seems like a pretty bad deal to me. I just looked online and the first result was a Surface Pro 6 with 8GB RAM and 256 GB of storage for the same price.

qaz, (edited )

Oh, I thought the Go 2 you described was also refurbished because of it’s specs.

qaz,

Because those specs don’t sound like something you would get on a recent device. I thought 8 GB RAM and 128 GB storage was the minimum now for Windows devices but I guess I’m wrong.

Why won’t it work?

qaz,

The problem with this is that most people will choose a distro based on the default desktop enviroment.

qaz, (edited )

I’m not saying choosing based on the desktop environment is a bad thing. I’m just saying that it’s better to recommend something like Fedora and let people choose a spin instead. The desktop environment is a lot more important when starting out. The user can then decide to switch to a different distro after having gained a bit more experience / knowledge about the inner workings of Linux distributions.

qaz,

We had similar issues and they disabled kicking participants. However, they didn’t disable muting teachers for another week.

qaz,

You’re twisting OP’s words. He just wants to discuss the purpose of small instances, he isn’t forcing people to abolish them.

qaz, (edited )

Small instances don’t prevent Lemmy from being centralized, people don’t mind if their instance defederates from an instance with 5 people. Medium-sized instances (e.g. dbzer0) prevent wrongful defederation, because people will suddenly miss a few communities / users.

qaz,

Where are you getting that “e” from?
