Yeah, I’d personally try out a live CD for a different distro (probably Puppy) to see how the events show up there.

I do wholeheartedly recommend changing distros though

a bunch of records from a retired local DJ ended up scattered in thrift stores around my area; I ended up getting a bunch of really good condition 80s disco and funk 12in singles

In the case of Brave and Vivaldi, they add their own undesirable parts (Brave adds crypto bullshit and Vivaldi is closed-source, so $DEITY knows what they’re adding).

Librewolf is open and doesn’t contribute to the Chromium monoculture; so it’s the best option

You could switch to the ESR branch, which gets feature updates much less frequently.

I never went to the homepage unless I accidentally landed there because of autofill. I normally just go straight to subscriptions. There are still recommendations under videos, so I check that out every so often, mostly because my secondary monitor is portrait and I can see them under the video

I’ve been using Trixie (Current testing, next stable) for gaming for a couple weeks. Everything (gaming wise) works the same as it did when I was on Arch.

For those who don’t want to read TFA: the brands are Gilead and NYU Lagone Hospital

Most of my time on Reddit was because of the constant flow of actually new content and “new to me” content (binging subreddits that I had just found out about).

Lemmy only has a constant flow of actually new content and it’s slower.

Reality has a well-known liberal bias

Higher pay and a housing market carsh

I’ve been running mine on a cheap (€4/mo) VPS from Hetzner since my ISP doesn’t let me host from a residential IP.

My NAS is loud enough without lemmy; hate to see how loud it’d get with it

I joined Beehaw first because I like their philosophy, the admins seem pretty level headed, and they’re decently large. But they defederated from/were never federated with a couple of instances that I was interested in, so I made my own instance and am here now.

Listing only things that haven’t been listed

• Seal: video downloader that lives in the “share” menu
• Aegis: TOTP/Google Authenticator clone that’s open source
• personalDNSfilter: an in device vpn that lets you block websites (mostly ads) (blocks in app ads too for quite a few apps!)

I still do. But then I remember that its gone and I put my phone back down and find something else to do.

Elon Musk and I’d post “im deleting this entire site, sayonara you weeaboo shits”

I’ve seen both AntennaPod and PocketCasts mentioned; I’ve used both over the years. I liked AntennaPod; the only reason that I stopped using it was because I switched to Spotify since that let me pick up listening from where I left off on my desktop. I moved to PocketCasts afterwards because I’ve been slowly trying to get off of Spotify (and because they open-sourced their mobile apps). I don’t like that they require premium to have it sync with the webplayer, but it works.

The XDG Base Directory standard has kinda sorta been doing that; and I like it. Not everything supports it; and it’s not perfect, but at least it’s better than the wild west that application configs used to be.

At minimum; school should give you the tools to be able to figure out how to do taxes/basic house maintenance/etc. But also, sometimes people need a little extra help; and we should have some sort of system to help people learn those things.

Being a conservative and accusing every progressive person of being a pedophile.

Could’ve stopped it there, the rest is implied.

Same; especially with how everyone and their dog is releasing a Chrom{e,ium} reskin.
