oh gosh how is this the worst one /j

lmao

You could try Asahi Linux, they’ve been doing lots of work getting Fedora working nicely on the new ARM macbooks :)

Well, firefox used to have support for gopher, but maintaining it was too much work and support was removed in firefox 4.0. Even now, with it gopher and gemini being the most popular they’ve ever been, neither of them have built-in support from any major web browser.

Also, it’s not that the creators don’t want people using it, that’s not what I meant. It’s just that they didn’t expect the level of adoption they currently have.

because the point is not broad adoption, the point is not what features it supports, the point is the features that it doesn’t. It can’t track you, it can’t advertise to you (effectively), it’s meant to replicate that pre-corporate-enshittification feeling the WWW once had. The creators never imagined it would get as big as it even currently is.

Gentoo -> Linux From Scratch -> Kernel From Scratch

windows -> LMDE -> Fedora KDE -> Arch Linux -> Gentoo

In my experience, most package managers should set up dependencies by themselves! Though, I do agree with the lack of explanation of documentation.

I use arch by the way, but what’s your opinion of other “user-friendly” distros like Manjaro or Garuda?

This is a very dangerous, and unfortunately widespread, generalization. The shitty ones are the loudest ones, and I’m sorry that most of your experience with linux users has been with them. I promise, much of the community are kindhearted individuals who simply use linux because of its ideals, or because they’re developers, or privacy enthusiasts, or those who bought a steam deck and think the lack of windows is pretty neat.

Then try podman! The podman desktop application by redhat is probably one of the nicest interfaces for container orchestration i’ve seen in a while, if not a little bare. Podman is rootless by design and there’s basically no configuration needed (for non-commercial purposes, anyway) besides loading up the gui, downloading your images, and spinning up whatever software you need.

bro wtf

maybe not easily producible, but RTGs almost fit the bill

I’ve never used AdGuard, and I don’t know exactly what the ease-of-use is or how configurable it is, but I think that Pi-Hole is a better option nonetheless. It’s built by the community instead of a corporation, and likely has more/better documentation than its peers.

What did discord do? their privacy policy is pretty airtight, but please elaborate!

The brown recreation road signs (USA) which have extremely vibrant logos for random water/amusement parks on them.

Although I use Tailscale, the control servers are closed source. For those of you who like self hosting though, there is a project called Headscale that implements them anyways https://github.com/juanfont/headscale

What do you believe are the best practices to protect ones privacy would be, regardless of complexity (something extremely effective, but not necessarily easy to set up/use)?

There are NTFS drivers for Linux, it can read and write it fine, no wine needed :)

yikes, I’m so sorry. all I can say is “BEGIN TRANSACTION”…

Box tops?
