I totally see your point and I tried GNOME first to have a uniquely Linux experience. I do agree with you. But the inflexibility of GNOME by default made it a much harder flip. I tried it with PopOS too, after using Debian for a while.
Plus tbh, I don’t think with still how much you need to use the terminal for linux, anyone would be mistaken in the transition. Windows has kludge from the 90s for their settings and linux still needs terminal.
I tried PopOS and the pop store is not the best, and gnome is too foreign for someone coming from windows.
And also, too fiddly to make it work with a number of third party extensions vs the customization being built in.
KDE is heavier but also seems more streamlined and Cinnamon is fairly decent too.
For folks out of the loop, What’s the second acronym RPG?
Just to note, I’m on v8.0.14 and there has been 0 bytes of data coming in and going out.
I have a fairly cushy IT job, and I don’t see many jobs that aren’t managerial that the tax would affect. Enough to the point of it causing a brain drain, which wouldn’t already have happened due to other reasons.

I mean… Yo… We have the steam deck bro. And that’s going to get the linux desktop to 10% itself. And then Valve is going to re-release Steam Machines and VR 2.0. We’re definitely going to have the year of the Linux Desktop
Anecdotally, Mint broke file permissions and then the mounting points for my home server setup. And I find Cinnamon to be quite ugly imho.
I tried Fedora and Debian and much prefer those two vs Mint. Also, KDE is incredibly beautiful on the Steam Deck.
P.S. Fedora and Debian work with secure boot OOTB. Helpful for a laptop install. I know you can make it work with Arch and Mint as well, and there’s issues+opinions with secure boot, but I just wanted something to work. I am not as adept with linux and the guides assumed a particular level of experience with it.
So, this is what baffles me. You use it for one encounter. And it is an absolute blast, coz I mean look at it.
But what do you do with these after that encounter?
Right but these are Small Modular Reactors which are quite different to singular humongous nuclear power plants. Think more akin to Nuclear Sub’s reactors; which definitely are much smaller than the typical grid reactors.
Considering the size of the country, and the margins it works with, it works quite well. Well enough that Amazon itself uses USPS for deliveries. Plus there’s a lot of additional work that USPS does. Like shipping to places that just don’t make any fiscal sense but are essential for that remote community. Shipping live chicks under a certain amount of age.
And no private company would do this coz it won’t give the most profits but the service greatly benefits the populace as a whole. (Which preaching to the choir since you’re on Lemmy vs Reddit when the Reddit experience is a lot smoother for the layman right now but also fully profit oriented.)
FedEx is a private company. USPS is the public one.
Probably start with the investment firms and mass landlords and we might never even need to get to individual landowners.
Love the username 😄😄
Tbh, I kinda like that we have these growing pains. Helps folks leave out older expectations of monolithic profit-oriented social platforms. And actually put some money down to help host the specific niche community they really want to exist.
I’ll probably eat these words later but, as of this moment, I stand by it.
Not sure if that’s a load per community, might run it by the Instance admin.
And just what is so wrong with nomadic tribes??
It is perfectly fine depending on the geography and it doesn’t limit the technological growth of a civilization.
Wonder if the last statement will age like wine or milk. I guess, time will tell.
Just waiting on what the Standard Notes collaboration pans out to. Also wish they’d flesh out their side projects fully before adding more and more new toys to the suite.
