If it removes the tracking from the link before the page loads, it could work. So it would already be clean when you copy it.

novelupdates.com is a site where translators post their translations.

TempleOS (wikipedia) is a meme os. It's supposed to be god's os and was singlehandedly coded by the late Terry Davis. So this post isn't really marketing, and the reference is just supposed to be humorous.

It's not fully supported: https://old.reddit.com/r/ValveIndex/comments/zs8snv/vr_on_linux_makes_me_sad/

No async reprojection

No bluetooth support for base stations power management

Does not work on Wayland, at all (Nobara, KDE)

Lacks the ability for you to continue using your headset if for some reason it disconnects and reconnects (base stations will not be detected, neither will any bluetooth adapters like the SW7)

A plethora of bugs

It feels like my headset view is on a delay? Maybe due to no async reprojection

I'm quoting this guy because I think that VR straight up doesn't work on NixOS, and I haven't gotten to testing my Index on any other os yet.

If you use the default cinnamon desktop on linux mint, theres an extension for it called gTile.

Not sure if it does what you want.

TBH I've always found the popup showing all the other windows when tiling in Windows to be annoying so I've never looked for it on Linux.

Other people will know what bootloader you use, what apps you use, etc. Yeah I guess its not a huge concern, but its something.

If you don't have much experience with linux you should not use nixos. I don't think nixos is any different from debian or fedora in privacy, anonymity, or security. Many people even reduce their privacy by putting their config on github.

My shell seems to autocomplete filenames that have spaces with "\ " already.

Sudo is root. It executes commands as the root user on every linux distro.

I'm pretty sure MKDEV, who is one person, quit cracking earlier this year.

I only use an extension for tray icons. I use it kind of like how I would use a tiling window manager with a keyboard based workflow and non tiling windows. I just hit the super key and type app names to launch stuff and drag windows around with the super key. Instead of alt-tabbing I hit the super key to see the overview and click on the window I want.

In the newest gnome versions, there's a menu that shows you what apps are in the background, so if you know what apps are already open. I'm not a huge fan of that but I wouldn't really care if my tray icons didn't work because its close enough.

I got 1 dollar a year on my domain, gen.xyz has some real cheap domains if you don't care about it being a string of 6-9 numbers.

Use soulseek instead. Nicotine+ is a pretty good soulseek client.

You can also drag it to the tab bar to add it as a new tab.

I keep seeing ads in my notifications on my windows installation for windows store items or bing.

How is specifically blocking 12ft enshittification then.

Yeah, I haven't seen a paywall in years with javascript disabled by default.

I wouldn't really consider improving their website coding so that people can't pirate it enshittification.

Enshittification is based around a platform first creating something good for users and then making it good for suppliers and then when they are locked in, reduce quality. You aren't locked into a news website that you aren't even paying for, and you aren't entitled to their products either.

How is it enshittification to stop people from pirating your stuff?

Just accept that its not private, use the website (not the app), and don't upload anything that you aren't comfortable with being public.

You can also sign up with a burner phone number.
