You probably shouldn’t be using an arch based distro if you want a user friendly experience.

I know there are things like manjaro and even endeavor os that are “arch but easy” but honestly I cannot in good faith recommend anything arch based for ease of use. Arch is a very fast moving distribution that usually has the newest packages but that isn’t always good. There will eventually be a problem come up, maybe not often and maybe not that serious but in my personal opinion it’s not worth it.

If you are wanting consistent ease of use and access to a lot of packages it’s hard to beat the mainstream distros. Mint, Ubuntu, Fedora, (personal favorite) etc… and if you need something from arch repositories just use distrobox. You get access to all arch packages without the headache.

I’ve been using Authenticator and haven’t really had any issues.

I imported my Aegis codes and they worked no problem

Workers in Maryland and Texas are holding a one-day strike

I don’t know why they do one day strikes

It’s very pretty and I could see myself using it but I will stick with breezy weather for now.

I just think this has too much going on and the information is spread out too much. This is all personal preference but I feel that I get a lot more information from breezy quicker.

Cool project tho. Really like the radar

Thank you for posting this week in gnome here

I wouldn’t recommend duel booting on one drive.

I’ve done it before and hated it. As many pointed out windows will just destroy that partition because it wants to.

I’d honestly just stick with windows if you are going to need it.

If you don’t need it I’d just wipe the drive and install mint.

Duel booting can work well but usually only on separate drives

Ah cool. This will probably be better for newcomers since they won’t have to search for a tiny little “spins” at the bottom of the page.

Kde is probably a lot more familiar to windows users and I know I usually recommend it to people moving over even if I do prefer gnome.

Z-wave and home assistant.

All ya need

Damn. Mask off huh?

Israel is an illegitimate state built off of stolen land and dead bodies.

Israel is committing an ethnic genocide and with America’s help is destroying Palestine which has a right to the land unlike the Israelis.

If there is a god I hope he is not merciful to the Israelis who have engaged in these atrocities.

From the river to the sea Palestine will be free

Also fuck you

I haven’t played an Assassin’s Creed game in years and I have no intentions to play the new one. But even I know the worst part of those games is the stupid damn story set in modern times that makes no sense.

WHY AREN’T THEY JUST GAMES SET IN THE PAST. WHY IS IT SIMULATION JUNK. WHAT

I think gnome is working on the same sort of thing, read here.

I’m glad to see both going for an immutable os with flatpaks. It’s so much more user friendly for the average person and if you are more technically inclined distrobox makes it a breeze to use it like a regular linux desktop.

I hope both do well

I recommend booting into a live usb and seeing if everything is frozen.

If it does it even on the live usb it may be a hardware issue.

And if it’s hardware a lot of things can explain random freezing. I had similar freezing issues and it turned out to be a dying psu

They could have handled announcing this so much better.

Linus fumbled this hard.

I think this is a shortsighted and extremely ill-informed decision.

The “compliance requirments” have still not been explained at all.

Why aren’t Americans and israelis being removed from the maintainer list for their active part in a genocide?

But that is my opinion and is all I will say

Disco Elysium. I mean it came out in 2019. But it still counts

Very excited about fractal 9. It’s probably my favorite matrix chat application outside of element. I just wish it would support calls but that may be out of scope

She is tho. Committing genocide is fascism

She doesn’t care about kids dying. What a fucking scumbag liar

I think Element has the best chance of being a viable discord alternative. Especially with matrix 2 around the corner.

Element X (their new mobile app) loads as quickly as discord and supports e2e calls as well as chat.

It is a different app than discord though. It does not feature the nice server layout that discord is kind of known for but it is planned with spaces.

I say give Element another year or two and it will be a very formidable chat program.

And I have no doubt they are doing well financially and will continue to push improvements as matrix is very widely used. I mean hell apparently Nato uses it

What a based jet
