Start with Gentoo or Arch
I wouldn’t recommend arch to general users. I consider myself a general linux user, and figuring out Arch, even after the installation hurdle, wasn’t easy for me.
is like fixing windows when it doesn’t
I don’t think Arch really makes that easy. Although, I guess archwiki is pretty great. Even arch forum helped me a lot with respect to other disto.
But, are most of the users getting this Bluetooth problem? Has it occurred to you that that maybe this could be a you problem rather than a general user problem?
I don’t know who wrote this book, but he is a genius.
I dig that fedi origami logo.
Someone pointed out to me how the asterism symbol (the variant the website used) looks like four cat butthole. I can never unsee that.
There are valid criticism to be made about cosmic desktop, like
- their very liberal customization options that doesn’t stop users from ruining the look of the desktop
- their insistent to theme libadwaita apps disregarding app developers wishes against supporting custom themes.
But those are just subjective criticism and it’s still in alpha. All his “criticism” amounts to is whining about the software having glitches in alpha stage.
No matter how many times I see it, ⁂ just looks odd. I don’t want to get used to them. I want my colorful old fediverse symbol.
I don’t know understand why you need markdown, but if you are so used to vim motions why not switch to latex instead. You wouldn’t have to worry about katex support as well. This is an advice solely based on your need for katex support without understanding your needs.
Tell me if I am wrong, but I am having a *deja vu* about this. Like, I have seen this featured in some other post as well, some time ago. Not this wave of post, but like, few months ago.
Aye aye captain, let me bring the barrels of rum for the voyage.
I think many people share your sentiment and have argued the same point in other threads
You had to say it.
I am currently trying to see if I can replace Firefox with Zen. Zen still has some Firefox telemetry but they are off by default, so I like it. I think difference under the hood is DRM. Maybe it is time to finally ditch Netflix.
Zotero is on Linux, and it has a LibreOffice plugin as well. Though, I do not like Zotero. Zotero is more geared towards reference management, but it also offers some pdf, epub management. But I find their document management too tedious. It’s just easier for me to just rename files. That served me well for a long time.
Definitely not what you want, but Gnome web (Epiphany) is GPLv3 according to flathub.
I had this old laptop I bought when I was in high-school. The fun thing was it was a laptop with Ubuntu installed. But at that time I had no idea of what linux was, or even the idea of operating system was not very clear to me. I was pretty afraid of trying something new and asked someone to install windows on it. For 4 or 5 years it worked great. Then, suddenly the keyboard started to have lots of problems. Even after sending it to repair 3 times the problem remained. At that time I came to know about Linux and used it a fair bit in my university and became pretty fond of it, so I just decided, fuck windows, and installed Ubuntu. Although, this was not exactly a full time switch to linux. After the lockdown was lifted, I bought a new laptop with Windows installed (at that time I couldn’t a laptop other than Mac that didn’thave windows installed) and I used windows for like 1 year. The laptop being 2in1 was a bit skeptical about how good the linux support will be. But I eventually had to switch to linux for my dissertation and never looked back.
There is Komikku for linux though it’s kinda limited to sources it supports. Komga is a nice self hosted option with support for Mihon and all the tachiyomi forks for android. There is a tachiyomi fork called Komikku (different from the linux app) that I like.
