Since when AI content is compared to user content? Why do you change topic?

more good content

Well, it still counts as “more content” which is usually on par with user count.

Lemmy attract its own community naturally

Do you want to see more content, or you don’t?

Least offensive linux user

Btw I use unknown OS!

I think the whole point of this is Brother being least annoying. You might save some buck with old HP printers, but i would prefer saving my sanity over bucks. 😅

Myself I have dual boot. For the sake of simplicity - let’s say I have 2 drives:

1. 512GB NVME SSD - for OSes.
2. 2TB SATA SSD - for games.

512gb ssd partitioned into 2 parts - 256 for Linux and 256 for Windows.

2TB ssd without partitions, but a plain BTRFS with zstd compression storage.

Guess what - There is WinBTRFS driver. I am also sharing the same Steam library (on 2TB ssd) between both OSes… 😅 Works like a charm. 👌👌👌

Try Arch Linux. First setup in VM, then on your computer. Been ~8 years on it. Tried to distrohop multiple times - still going back to it.

Plasma is awesome DE which requires bare minimum setup. plasma package pulls basically everything - bluetooth, pipewire, sddm and so on. Then you just have to enable sddm/bluetooth services are you are done.

Fixing broken system is also very easy. :) Just try, don’t be shy!

It depends. Kind of prefer Flatpaks as they are always working as expected on any distro, but some of them are giving me just too much struggle.

For example, dealing with sandboxing, or especially VSS code app. Yes, there are instructions, but then I install Golang SDK via Flatpaks the hard way (using CLI) for Go development, then having a nightmare trying to setup everything in vss code. Then how tf should I access go binary within my host terminal?

On Arch Linux I just tend to install from official repos, while the rest of apps - from Flatpaks.

Personally I don’t like the way they are sandboxed, bit as long as it works I am fine.

HP

You fucking what? 😂😂😂😂😂

Seriously, there might be a debate of what printer company is better, but there is no debate which one is worst. It’s HP. 😅 They are so bad that they have no competitors of the worst fucking printer company. xD

Myself I got Brother printer. Works like a charm, no bullshits. People on Reddit also highly recommend this brand too. Totally agree.

Unpopular opinion: everyone focuses on productivity, then on features. Literally zero consideration for performance. Also lack of customization. I can flash Linux, hackintosh or any other random OS on any laptop I buy, but not on smartphone…

Kind of sucks that my Cat S62 Pro smartphone suck ass with it’s slowness and lags and I can blame Cat as a manufacturer for that, but lack of standards (so I can flash generic OS onto it simply sucks).

So I am forced to buy new phone every 1-2 years because it gets slow… 🤷

Oh wait! Batteries are not replaceable! USB-C port is also incresibly hard to change!

In the company I work, we have to use jumpbox + “password” from proprietary code generator.

Imagine going through this, then you suddenly need 2nd terminal. Inconvenience doing it again in another terminal?

Well, there is a solution:

1. tmux
2. CTRL+B then ". And now you have 2 terminals.

Also tmux is great for “quick solution” kind of things - to leave something running in the background. Talking about background - you can have many terminals open, from only 1 SSH session. :)

But but…what about trip to Mars??? 😱😱😱😂

• Gaming PC - Dual boot Arch Linux and Windows 11. Arch for everything (literally) and Windows 11 for VR only. I even share the same Steam library between 2 OSes on separate SSD, formatted as btrfs.
• Work laptop - Arch linux (because I can, we have strict managed-Windows system policy lol).
• Personal laptop - Arch Linux.

All of them using KDE.

Basically Zucc knows that fediverse (Mastodon/Lemmy) is a serious competitor, so instead of fighting it - he joined it. And named it “Threads” or smth (I don’t know and I don’t want to know)

The problem is that everyone bullied Zucc and “dropped him from their friend circles”. No one wants to be friends with Zucc. 🤷😂

IMO it sounds like that some AI corporation should host their own instance(s). They only pay for server and maintenance costs, while community does the rest and they have their data.

Would be best of both worlds, isn’t it? Once they become greedy, we are f*cked again, just like Reddit did…
