  • Kddit and Eddrit still work, though I don't want too many people to know about them, or else Reddit would probably block them.

    There's also Remini, over in Geminispace.

  • Ah, I didn't know about any of that.

  • Try Friendica first. If it's not your cup of tea, here are a few others:

    • Firefish
    • Mastodon
    • Akkoma
    • GNU Social
    • diaspora
    • Hubzilla
  • That's why I ended up installing ArcoLinux on my ThinkPad: it uses Calamares.

  • And that's why, as someone with mild chronophobia, I check Rural Dictionary regularly.

  • Count Binface is not the politician we deserve, but the politician we need.

  • I'm not sure, but I'm guessing this is actually Arial or Nimbus Sans or something.

  • I would have tried that if I had any. Somehow, I have laboratory grade chemicals in my room, but not a drop of orange oil in the entire house!

  • This! I just bought a water bottle, and it took the following measures just to get the residue from the label off:

    • Soaking in warm, soapy water
    • Scrubbing with an abrasive sponge
    • Soaking in vinegar
    • Scrubbing with Flash floor cleaner
    • Immersion in boiling water for 30 mins
    • Scrubbing with a Brillo pad
    • WD-40
    • 91% concentration laboratory-grade isopropanol
  • Chimera Linux?

  • Void was tricky. I didn't like Runit, and the package selection wasn't great.

    As for siduction, it was just a touch too buggy (i.e. XScreensaver caused the laptop to freeze when I closed the lid) and too preconfigured to be able to resolve easily. It also played havoc with my school's BYOD internet. I'll probably go back to it at some point, though.

    Of course, the main reason for this new install is that I just bought an SSD, and I'd rather start fresh than try to flash my old hard disk across.

  • EndeavourOS runs like shit on this particular laptop, and the installer could have used some work the last time I tried it.

    I tried three times to install vanilla Arch on this laptop since I installed my new SSD, and it has failed in a different way each time. I've had it running well in the past, but this time it's not playing ball, so I gave up and installed ArcoLinux.

  • It's a distribution based on Arch, with four flavours.

    ArcoLinuxL is the main one, with all the bells and whistles. ArcoLinuxS is the minimal one that comes with a desktop. ArcoLinuxD is the base one, which is comparable to a GUI version of the upstream Arch ISO.

    It's Derek Taylor's (DistroTube's) distro of choice.

  • I say we either resurrect KHTML, or try and turn NetSurf, Servo, or Ladybird into something that you can realistically use as your main browser.
