It actually looks really cool. I ran Lineage for a while and it was great, but I do enjoy projects that don't fully degoogle as well and give a more "modded" experience

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Because most of us want projects with users, and there's a lot more users on GitHub and Discord than Gitea and Matrix

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

I remember filling OARS out for one of my apps. Maybe I'm naive and it's a step needed for mass adoption, but it feels like a solution looking for a problem.

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Flatpak saved my ass when I super broke my Arch upgrade but didn't have time to fix it before work. I ran using only Flatpak apps for like 6 weeks because they were the only thing that worked

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Trying to set up snapshots is what broke my system. Not sure what the issue was exactly, but BTRFS was reporting a different amount of used space than there actually was, and my snapshots started recursively backing up until everything died

Next time I install Linux I'm going to use Ext4 and snapshots out the gate

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Honestly, I'm kind of tired of complicated stuff. I just want a fs that works and is easy to do recovery operations on when it doesn't work. My SSD is big enough

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

I LOVE SEAL!! Found it a few weeks ago. Even used it today. Free music ftw!

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Btw, Dinnerbone (the Minecraft OG) works on this

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Small in-window dialogs in QtQuick-based software have gotten a visual overhaul to remove everything not visually necessary, which gives the text and buttons more focus (Carl Schwan, Frameworks 6.3. Link 1 and link 2)

Eww noo

I used to use Protonmail and VPN, but one day my password just randomly stopped working and I lost access to everything. Switched over to Tutanota and Mullvad and have had zero issues since.

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Lmao you're right. Removed the first part. It came to look like an ad because I posted my first thought, then came back with my second one and appended it.

As far as the password goes, to this day I have no idea how it happened. I don't want to admit I use the same password for everything, but ye know.. it just stopped working for Proton one day.

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

As someone who ran BTRFS for years, I'm personally switching back to EXT4. Yes, the compression and other features are nice, but when things go wrong and you have to do a recovery, it's not worth the complexity

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

When booting into a live CD, mounting the various subpartitions is super annoying.

When your disk space hits full, things break uncontrollably because different programs don't have a consistent measurement of how much space is left.

When shrinking partitions, you can lose data if you shrink it too much. I'm not talking about forced overrides of any configs, I'm talking about things like KDE Partition Manager.

All of these things can be excused one way or another, but at the end of the day I just want a stable filesystem that doesn't lose my docs.

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Lemme say this - While complex, I can vouch for recovering files on BTRFS. I can't vouch for recovering files on ext4, because I never had to.

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

XFCE doesn't support it yet so I'm not on it.

Also last I tried, autoclickers weren't working

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Your lag is probably due to the hardware more than the translation layers

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

A few years ago there was a Lemmy instance on I2P

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Yea I think it shut down due to lack of users/interest. This was before Lemmy even had federation working, so much smaller community

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

I worked at BlackBerry (many years later) and this was my understanding. They were brutally reimpmementing all the Android APIs

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Anyone who cares about this and doesn't require a Windows server is already using BSD/Linux/etc

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

uniform

Reminds me of my previous job where our LLM was grading things too high. The AI "engineer" adjusted the prompt to tell the LLM that the average output should be 3. I had a hard time explaining that wouldn't do anything at all, because all the chats were independent events.

Anyways, I quit that place and the project completely derailed.

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

I mean if you're using something like Firebase on Android, the network calls get bundled with Google Play Services and you have no idea what that's sending up

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

As someone who loved Manjaro and installed it everywhere, the whole thing is (was?) amateur hour run by clowns. Drama, bugs, but lots of opportunity to contribute if you were equally blind.

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Came here to say the same thing. At least 2 people's brains will melt at this

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

2 Very high priority Plasma bugs (down from 4 last week).

Legendary

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

He's at 13,115 posts on the Phoronix Forums as of writing. He's the third most prolific commenter in the forums.

No kidding

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

It's probably not gonna happen, but it's great that this discussion is happening at all. Maybe it'll encourage Gnome to improve their customizability, which seems to be the main advantage point of KDE

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

I felt that way before meeting a GNOME dev. Their target audience is the whole world of users who either don't already have a computer or don't know how to use one. They don't want people customizing their apps. They don't want a calculator named anything other than "Calculator". They're target audience is the 2B users that we don't currently interact with.

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

SMS? You mean the paid, vendor lock-in, MITMable traffic? Possibly one of the only options that is actually worse than Discord

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Stats aside, I can't help but laugh anytime people suggest Lemmy is dying off or failing. Aussie.zone didn't used to exist, and Lemmy.ml used to have like.. one post a day? And it would be some tankie nonsense like "I'm a Russian living in Ukraine - Russia isn't going to invade Ukraine, it's all Western propaganda"

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

In addition to everything listed here, there’s something big that I can’t mention yet since it’s not 100% merged yet, but only 95%! Hopefully next week. 🙂 So stay tuned for that!

Nate's a hype man

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Time to bring back the reproducible build hype

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

The backdoor wasn't in the source code, only in the distributed binary. So reproducible builds would have flagged the tar as not coming from what was in Git

OsrsNeedsF2P OP ,

2 things:

  1. Literal politics. Rarbg had project members volunteer to fight in the Russia-Ukraine war....... For both the side of Russia, and the side of Ukraine

  2. Drama. Contributing takes a lot of time and effort. People get attached to their ideas and contributions. When people start drifting apart and fighting, third parties have to play politics to keep people happy and working towards a common goal

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Nah it's a real project that's continuing Yuzu's work, but only half their project is continuing the emulator. The other half is sticking the middle finger to Nintendo, and doing that requires being really obnoxious and loud.

Suyu is a pun for "Sue you", which Nintendo would love to do

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

I do with KWin rules. It's not elegant but it doesn't require coding
