Setup Btrfs + Btrfs Assistant, rollback if any update breaks things you need.

It's stable enough for me everyday use but this will depend on your use case + hardware setup. Even some people will swear by Manjaro for years without breaking. I found that usually if stuffs break in Arch, i can fix it but not so much if stuffs break by update from Ubuntu/Fedora.

I find it hard to think you care about the beginner experience if you recommend Arch.

TL;DR: it came out that some devs of one of the biggest platforms in their respective space neglected to bring in some very basic functionality regarding the ability for users, mods, and admins to delete images that were uploaded. When a user asked about having this functionality, especially in the context of GDPR compliance, the devs acted like a bunch of entitled dicks, effectively bellowing at the person for daring to make such demands of their time.

I generally think these guys are being a bunch of assholes.

Software engineer full-time ~70k/year, lemmy dev 24k/year. You should look into the mirror.

And it's not that the devs won't fix the issue but there are other issues with more priorities than this. Europe is not the only continent. So just like any other FOSS projects, wait for it or smash money if it's really important or do it yourself.

Btw based on Nutomic's comment, it's fixed next release if you bother to look before making 2 articles back to back. ::: spoiler spoiler Unfortunately there was some miscommunication in this issue and we failed to get to the root cause. In fact the Lemmy backend has an option to delete all content when an account is deleted. This used to be the default behaviour but was changed in 0.19 so you need to set a parameter delete_content. We failed to add a checkbox for this parameter to lemmy-ui.

However the checkbox is added now in #2385 and will be included in the next Lemmy release. Other frontends and clients may also need to adjust the delete_account api call. :::

From the blog

Something that I notice said consistently by those who have little experience in Lemmy admin spaces is “why not just contribute then?”

And the answer people try. And this happens. This unfortunately leads into the next point that is the developer teams behavior. As well, highlighted above in the blog post of that Lemmy user who unfortunately had to deal with devs behavior themselves.

From https://programming.dev/post/5180682

I will no longer be able to assist with development nor debugging actual issues with the software… Quite juvenile behavior from the devs. It stemmed from this issue where the devs continuously argued in public by opening and closing an issue. Anyway, thought I would keep y’all apprised of the situation, since these are the people maintaining the software you are currently using.

1st snowe's comment

This is a really weird thing to have an argument about. Scheduling client side would be a nightmare, like how Microsoft Outlook handles emails where you schedule an email for the morning, close your laptop, and then the email doesn't send because your laptop is asleep.

But even then arguing about it through reopening and closing an issue is really weird. Leave the issue open, have a discussion, talk about the pros and cons of putting it in the software, and then make a decision with the community.

2nd snowe's comment

And then marking the most relevant comment in the thread as off-topic. You're really alienating your users and server admins with this. Have the discussion like adults.

Imagine China/Russia does the same stuffs in Mexico and see how US react?

Can always change whatever you don't like, that's the strong part of KDE, unlike Gnome where you have to rely on 3rd party extensions and hope they don't break next update.

Video Link Torrent if you need.

Rules for thee, not for me

This is the time when you should self-reflect about how the West propaganda you into this state. Governments, media lie all the time, why should you trust them when they report about their enemy's countries?

Said right there in the post summary

Moscow says a 1956 agreement has been axed in response to the UK's sanctions on six people in charge of the penal colony where Alexei Navalny died.

Someone calls an ambulance!

because "fuck you who else are you going to buy from?"

Well, you can buy from another China's auto company or other country's car company. Or maybe it will make your country allocate budget from something big and destructive to the world and reallocate them to the failing auto industry?

My OCD can't stand the shutdown/reboot buttons just floating there. I would just use the terminal for reboot/shutdown.

This is done via storing the unlock key in USB drive and need the USB plugged to auto unlock, see if it helps.

Nvidia driver: https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA

Gnome and KDE (other Desktop Environments too) install Nvidia driver the same way.

For partitioning, I suggest to keep it simple, usually the stock config from the distro is good enough. This is useful for troubleshooting if issues arise later.
Big size data like media/games can be kept in other drives.

Hexbear not toxic enough

Mine is White Sur. Colloid and Reversal are good too.

Thanks for the works!
