Decide how much you will spend each week and spend a little less than that, slowly over 3 months you will reduce your expenses. Buy clothes and wash them after 2-3 uses unless you live in super dirty/dusty/warm area. This will prolong clothes life significantly and added advantage is they come back in fashion after a while. I have a shorts which I use still after 10 years.
It's sometimes unbearable on Lemmy. I have stated that using Linux is very hard for noobs and it's not useful still for general audience. I have got so many downvotes just because of this, you won't believe. It feels like community is Linux users , who are acting as nerds or are nerds, and they are somewhat inclusive of outsiders.
Lemmy feels like a club for only the so called intellectuals and they want to barr regular person getting in.
This is also evident with Lemmy worlds or alternative of subbreddits. If you try to find some they still don't exists.
Further Lemmy is very hard to understand , even I struggle to understand how it works. But the access to different Lemmy's is good, via boost app.
The Lemmy worlds though they don't look as polished as Reddit does but that's cause Lemmy is evolving.
So in summary
Quality of posts, strong sense of non inclusivity by lemmye'rs , understanding of how Lemmy works and old feel of Lemmy are the reasons is keeping people out.
how about using winword ? and excel. I know there exists alterntives on linux, but I have seen that open office wrekcs havoc on document formatting. is there a if not as good as , but next to good word editor for linux and is it out of box ?
Serious question , my laptop is getting old. 7-8, years now I don't want to put money in tech for w new one. I want to use it with Linux , as I just use for very Norma stuff and Zero gaming. My use cases will be use of office, use if browsers, simple image editors, pdf reader and manipulation, copying images from to and from HDD , copying media to HDD etc.
Connecting iPhone, android for file uploading download etc.
I don't want hassle of
Find a reaposiroty, install an extra ackages except for softwares
Give any command viq terminal.
3.find any dependency for ANYTHING
Use it as regular person
What Linux will just work? I mean simple install and start using.
Okay , for anyone who can advise a noob like me.i don't want NAS, of fancy connections and switches and gears. All I want is to get SSD or HDD , an tore t client to download ahem " iso"s and then I open my TV/comouert and voilà it's there, what is easy and simplest way to do it ?.
Det inte sant,eller?? Även med Biltema, Stadium ? Aldrig har provat, jag tar grejer direkt till butik. Om det är sant jag vill gärna stoppa köra att bära retur.grejerna.
Go to Linux Lemmy and search for Minecraft. There was a post few days ago on how to run it in Linux. Nobody had answer in how to run it natively nobody. It was not far long that Linux on any version had problems accessing YouTube b cause of flash, and installing flash was no easy job with multiple dependencies. Now it may work here and there may be 80% but as easy as windows .no way , it's not a everyday OS who don't want to touch Terminal ever.
)leave aside old games , despite what Lemmy Linux Community have you believe, even new version of many s/w don't work with Linux , package managers are crap and "everything is easy with terminal" is a lie.
I am not fan of MS either but Linux just does not work.
Word of advice, pixel is good for software, camera but that's it. Don't take it I less you can use esim with physical sim, as it has NO double SIM slot , that's a must have feature for me.
So quite useless in most of ASIA.
At one point it became so boring that I could not watch it. Specifically when they try to go physically in building and hack it , I did not understand why they have to show his mental parts and what not. I could not waste anytime on it any more.
Just today in piracy forums, there is person asking for how to play Minecraft on SO EASY LINUX. Just read the comments to know HOW EASY LINUX is to a beloved game available everywhere.
Have you tried to install add-on or scraper to Kodi? On mobile or remote bases device. Please let me know how many steps it take to that, and also when you find a scraper , how long it actually stays up
The person you are replying to is 1000% right. Not so long ago your wanted to play flash files i.e. entirety of YouTube on Linux , you had do this and that and what not... I stopped using Linux even the noob friendliest ones after that one. The ones that are used in "running" internet are specifically made for that purpose only and they are not general purpose ones. So they are more robust than your "working out of the box" Linux versions.
Linux is hard and ABSOLUTE SHIT for a n person who wants things to just work., I mean can you search on Firefox a software like Irfan view or sony Vegas and install it and be fine in 10 minutes max? Nope .... You find a relative similar software then you install it via package manager, and you think you are fine but as you run it it throws some error, do you go search for it . Turns out you need xyz dependency for it , then you search how to install dependency , all the forums tells you via terminal it's just one command. So you try to do that but you forget/a or-s somewhere and ......
Linux doesn't work for general purpose easily. It's good one for specific purpose. That's what my personal experience been..
If you worried about Tracking back to you , why not upload it to private torrent, or rip it and ask in forum in private torrent on how they can help you. Win win for all.
