I'd like to interject for a moment.

  • blasphemy

    • switching to Linux because Windows ui are so boring (KDE is love KDE is life, I want to marry KDE)

    Jump

  • Switched to Linux a year ago. Haven't looked back since. I didn't even know Windows was getting those creepy ass advertisements all over the operating system if it weren't for the news here. Now I don't want to go back more.

    • Thunderbird's New Rust Integration: The Future of Email Clients?

    Jump

  • It does make stuff great. Even Microsoft is trying out Rust in their shit operating system because apparently 30% of all CVEs are related to, you guessed it, memory issues. And Rust will most likely solve them all. Even the Linux kernel has Rust code in it now. If Rust was not of importance, why would the Linux kernel get rusty? Especially Linus Torvalds is very strict about these things. Sure, bad code rewritten in Rust does not make it any better than it originally was. Plus you get C-like speed with good syntax and memory safety, what more could you ask for?

    • It's time to mentally prepare yourselves for this

    Jump

  • Please end timezones. We only need one universal one and that's it.

    • YouTube’s ad blocker crackdown now includes third-party apps

    Jump

  • GrayJay works great. And it's not even limited to YouTube, there are lots of other platforms you can fill your feed with. And also, you still can get your feed directly from YouTube, so recommendations are there and channel memberships also work. You can't use YouTube likes and comments, but you can create a Polycentric identity, and like the videos or comment on it in that "decentralized" identity platform.

    • Google One is shutting down its VPN feature later this year

    Jump

  • You had your files in Google One storage though.

    • As if we need another reason to switch to GNU/Linux

    Jump

  • I like my cat.

    • GitHub Is Not Open Source, A Rant

    Jump

  • If I am not mistaken, there's already an import tool. Or was it Codeberg?

    • Google Won’t Say Anything About Israel Using Its Photo Software to Create Gaza “Hit List”

    Jump

  • It has been unpublicly changed to "be evil" years ago.

    • What do you think about Keyoxide ? Worth the trouble ?

    Jump

  • I use it. The linkable proof is in my Lemmy desc for example.

    • Rust but you can't write semicolons and commas

    Jump

  • I like that monaspace font.

    • Suggest a Laptop for me.

    Jump

  • Thanks for the search.

    • How to end-to-end encrypt your iCloud

    Jump

  • It's for the good of everyone. Is data privacy a bad thing?

    • Suggest a Laptop for me.

    Jump

  • The problem with my gaming laptop is that there's some hardware issues that are pretty costly. I'd rather just get a new laptop at that point.

    • How to end-to-end encrypt your iCloud

    Jump

  • That seems like it's their problem. Should have written that recovery phrase in multiple places. E2EE should be opt out for the normies who can't remember their passwords let alone write down their recovery phrases in multiple places. Like, I bet my ass most of the people don't even have a complex master password. It's some band name with their date of birth appended at the end which barely reaches 16 characters probably with the lowest entropy possible for a 16 character password.

    • Suggest a Laptop for me.

    Jump

  • Framework laptops are indeed good, but their prices exceed my budget alot.

    • What to include in a backup? (Ubuntu)

    Jump

  • I generally backup the entire home folder and the configuration files.

    • What are variables and semicolons for actually?

    Jump

  • I agree. Semicolons are a small "tradeoff" (personally not for me) for such a great language.

    • Which DE/WM do you prefer?

    Jump

  • I'll be switching to COSMIC DE as soon as it gets into the beta phase.

    • Lemmings, why do you think Lemmy is better than Reddit?

    Jump

  • It's open source, has no ads by default, supports custom clients and is built with Rust which means it's very performant. Sure, it lacks some features that are very useful like flairs. And the moderation tools could be improved.

    Reddit's website is literally shit and bloated as fuck. While Lemmy is pretty minimalistic. Some UI improvements to make it more pretty could be made but it's fine to be honest.
