Let's say we don't care about the backendfrontend interconnection we see in most JS frameworks. We just want to program the backend. What would be the language of your choice?
Most of my experience is in .NET at work. My professional recommendation is C#, but my personal recommendation is Go. I find Go to be just nicer to code with.
What was the first ever distro you installed and used? For me, it was Mint as I seemed like the closest thing to Windows minus all the forced updates and chappy changes....
I am a software developer and am forced to have Windows on my work computer. WSL allows me to have a Linux terminal that I can use directly on my files without needed a VM.
I’m going to be running a Jellyfin server, and I don’t want to maintain it a lot, I just want it to work. Would using Docker be the easier way to maintain Jellyfin, or would using Podman be better? (I don’t want to deal with SELinux, firewalls, port forwarding, etc.)
My workflow works the best in bash/zsh shells. Shells that are too different are too much of a change. I like fish as well. Probably a touch of Stockholm Syndrome too haha
I personally only use the Google calendar widget and it’s the only one I feel that is useful. I’m sure there are other widgets out there that I could be using in my daily life....
Seems like IBM is going to make RHEL closed source. What's everyone's opinion about the move? I feel RHEL is now the evil villain distro of the community.
I want to use SearxNG as my daily driver, and I added three instances to my browser’s search engines list. However, I find that all three are down whenever I try to use it, and I inevitably have to look at the list of instances and click the top one just to perform one search. Is there a way to “auto-route” my search...
If you were to create a Fediverse server, with frontend being plan simple HTML only, what programming language and stack would you choose?

Got any good open source Android games?
Most mobile games nowadays seem to be crap. Got any good mobile games that are open source and fun to play (for more than a few days)?
What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?
I’ve been using Linux Mint since forever. I’ve never felt a reason to change. But I’m interested in what persuaded others to move.
Is the Windows Subsystem for Linux worth it?
I’ve had a pretty poor experience with it myself, so I wanna see what the Linux community thinks about this.
Docker or Podman for Jellyfin?
I’m going to be running a Jellyfin server, and I don’t want to maintain it a lot, I just want it to work. Would using Docker be the easier way to maintain Jellyfin, or would using Podman be better? (I don’t want to deal with SELinux, firewalls, port forwarding, etc.)
NuShell: a very nice shell I found today. What do you think? ( www.nushell.sh )

And you, what’s your operating system to code ? Me, I use Arch btw
What widgets do you use?

Many may already know this offer from Sticker Mule, but you can get basic Unix swag really cheaply to stick on a laptop or water bottle....

RHEL no longer open source
Seems like IBM is going to make RHEL closed source. What's everyone's opinion about the move? I feel RHEL is now the evil villain distro of the community.
Why is every Searx instance down when I try to use it?
I want to use SearxNG as my daily driver, and I added three instances to my browser’s search engines list.
