I downvoted because I’m a hater /s

With python and virtualenv you can also keep the entire source of your libraries in your project.

Is RCS encrypted? I still prefer signal above everything else. Whatsapp seems to be passable privacy wise, but it’s Facebook so I don’t trust it one bit.

One way or another, Whatsapp is the standard around the world and it for sure beats SMS.

While I think firewalls are overrated, they are also dead easy to set up, and the best kind of defense is defense in depth.

It works, nowhere near as good as AMD but it works.

I love Fedora! but sadly I have been burned twice by Red Hat already. I refuse to be burned a third time so I’m moving my servers over to Debian. I like to use the same ecosystem on all my computers, so I also moved my desktop and laptop over to Debian.

I tried OpenSUSE a few times, but I disliked YaST, disliked the unclear future of Leap and disliked the unclear future of ALP. I thought I would love Aeon (I used Silverblue when I used Fedora) but I didn’t like being unable to compare my system against a “base” one. So for the time, at least until the situation over SUSE clears up, I’m going to stick with Debian.

Anyways, once GNOME 45 hits Debian Testing I think I’m going to move over to that, I would prefer to use Stable (which I use on my laptop and job) but I really want a recent GNOME for my Nvidia GPU. I have a bunch of BTRFS snapshots ready to go back to stable at any moment if anything happens, so I’m not too worried.

Is that on X11 or Wayland?

When my main PC had Nvidia I was desperate to move from Xorg to Wayland because Xorg was laggy like that video you showed while Wayland behaved perfectly.

I think that only happens on Xorg if you have different monitors though.

I went for an AMD APU on my laptop explicitly because I wanted to avoid hybrid graphics. While I would like a faster igp, for battery life and ease of use, APUs are fantastic.

I tried a bunch of terminals on my laptop and ended up deciding that I don’t care and just like the GNOME terminal.

I’m going to try Console on my desktop then!

First, I have a multi monitor setup, with different resolutions, refresh rates and scalings, so X11 is basically unusable (tears like crazy and wrong sizes everywhere). On Wayland, Wayland programs work perfectly, always looking crisp and the correct size.

Anyways, nearly everything I do is in a browser or a terminal, both work perfectly on Wayland. The other program I use lots is VSCode, which in the past was its own source of problems for Wayland/Nvidia, but now it surprisingly works fine (as long as I launch it with --ozone-platform-hint=auto so its not blurry).

I do use lots of these fancy electron apps, things Slack, Discord and Teams, but I sandboxed all of them into my browser. Teams barely works, but it barely works anywhere anyways so I’m not missing out on much.

I also use lots of native GTK apps, they all support Wayland perfectly, I really like the Celluloid video player for example.

The only programs I commonly use that are X11 only are Spotify, which I don’t really care if its blurry (I tried sandboxing it too into the browser, but I like to keep all my music downloaded) and Datagrip, which I’m anxiously awaiting for Wayland support.

It’s vulnerabilities month or what?

No joke that would be great for privacy and putting users first. Users would go the product to the customers and the platform would actually need to cater to them.

The same would happen with Twitter.

Now, social media depends on its massive size, so even if makes the platform more user-centric, it would reduce the amount of users and reduce its value.

AVIF is supported everywhere and it’s fantastic

I’m loving that new activities indicator! way better than just saying “activities”

They just want money

Did you add Flathub or rpmfusion? the store without those things is kinda barren

My brother is the kind of people that installs stuff without reading a single option, just ‘next next next’ until the installer closes.

It says it? TIL

I knew about that (kinda intuitively, openSUSE installer behaves the same way and I just assumed that Debian would be the same)

Fedora is fantastic, but I’m a little shaken about Redhat, which is downstream of Fedora and a big supported.

Also, Fedora is a bit annoying with codecs and non-free software in general. They are extremely anal about not infringing copyright.
