  • I realize that the Indianapolis chief's comments may be out of context, but why is he angry at the parents of the victims? Does he think parents should always accompany their 15 and 16 year olds out of the house? maybe save some anger for whoever actually shot those kids?

  • It also isn't an operating system. It's an application that you install on an existing OS.

    Could the company decide to lock it to only their hardware? Probably. Could they take money in exchange for preferred listings? Yup.

    And if it gets shitty, like OP said, it is just a layer on top of Docker. You can leave it.

    CasaOS was key in easing me into the world of Docker. I understand general use enough to be comfortable installing without Casa and jumping into compose files and such. But I'll still check out the store for apps sometimes just for ease of use.

    Whole post is just a rant against something that OP apparently doesn't know anything about.

  • I really didn't think I was going to like a minimal launcher after so many years with Nova and then AIO, but OLauncher really clicked for me.

    Since then, I upgraded to ProLauncher, which mostly adds shortcut icons on the right (I believe that's what I upgraded for anyway). It's been great.

  • I was going to make a snarky comment until I read the article. I visited AG infrequently, but considered it a solid place when I was looking for new games or info about a game. That really sucks the way it played out.

  • I find the opposite. I love video games, always have, but these days my time is more limited, I might go months without touching them, and I just play to relax. So over the past 10 years or whatever, things like GTAV, Fallout 4, and AC:Odyssey have worked out really well for me. I can pick them up whenever I want and either settle in for some story or just waste time exploring, doing side quests, finding collectibles.

    Like what would I rather do in real life? Work toward a single goal day after day, or see what's on top of that mountain over there just because?

  • Given your requirements, IDK why people are recommending different VPNs and such. No way I'm going through that with my mom.

    For me, the easiest route was Cloudflare Tunnel. No need to fart around with exposing ports, has some baseline security, TLS, easy for my users.

    The only thing you'll want to be sure to do is create a cache rule to bypass caching on your jellyfin domain.

  • Like "It's the HOMEBREW channel. Not to be used for playing copyrighted software."? I mean, I appreciate that they want to play fair with other open source projects and developers, but isn't the entire emulation community essentially "built on lies and copyright infringement"?

  • For what it's worth, CasaOS isn't actually an operating system. It absolutely works as an easy way to install and manage your self-hosted apps if you aren't comfortable with the command line, but you still need to have a working Linux installation.

    Yunohost is kind of similar as far as making things easier, but it operates as a standalone OS, so might be more what you're looking for.

  • It's not going to do much at this point, but I'll give you a +1. I'm all in on AOC, but this isn't even an article. No insight, no attempt to discern any truth, and barely even able to contextualize the tweets. It's trash for clicks.

  • I think a lot of the responses here get at the fact that Mastodon does take a little time and work to curate a feed that you enjoy.

    I run a little instance with a few active users, so I follow them. I don't tend to follow hashtags, but I check them out now and then to look for interesting posters. Browse the FediFollows account and https://fedi.directory/ . Use a hashtag or two when you post sometimes and check out the accounts that share or like your post.

    Follow accounts liberally, but unfollow just as liberally they just don'tdo it for you. Eventually, you'll end up with something that you enjoy.

  • Everyone has said Nextcloud, and I agree.

    I will also add though that I keep Nextcloud on a VPS rather than hosting it at home. Easier for me in terms of backups and storage, plus I don't have to worry about a kid or my wife unplugging the PC to charge a phone or something. 🙃

  • I've been trying out the DuckDuckGo browser for the last week or so and it's doing the job. Of your list, it doesn't have a tab bar, but it checks the other boxes well enough, I think. I do really miss the reader mode button in Firefox. And generally the ability to use extensions.
