I’ve found that some people use Linux just to be apart of the “cool tech kids” on the internet. They don’t understand how to use a CLI…

I hope that’s true. If Linux has come this far to make PC life possible for the cool kids, I say welcome to each and every one of them.

Better late than never. Great move.

You either spend your life really well or you have way too much time on your hands.

Either way I read your post with happy curiosity. 🙂

Well, I completely disagree! Taking things seriously is the only way to have meaningful conversations. If we don’t challenge each other’s views, how will we ever grow and learn? We need the “battleground of ideas”!

I love Vivaldi. Am sad it’s Chromium. Wish Firefox would take a page out of Vivaldi’s features book and innovation approach.

You misspelled Neovim. An understandable mistake.

😁😝

Mastodon struggles a bit to pick up pace.

Found this:

It explains some pain points.

Which search results or which queries could one show the average user to make that point?

I mean, I’m not a big fan of it either. On the other hand, I want Firefox to continue to grow and be actively developed and supported. If not from sources like these - to me unobtrusive - ads, where else can their revenue come from?

Not trying to be controversial. Just asking. What business opportunities would we support Mozilla in that we’d be happy with?

This!

Good I’m on Tumbleweed then. 😁

Seriously, I will test it in a virtual machine.

Good point. Which distros handle it well?

Interesting. Gotta try that.

I have P2Play installed. It only supports 1 instance at a time. 🤷

Are there any clients that support multiple instances? It would improve my feed if I would see content from several instances at once.

You can. That’s what I meant with folders. But I cannot position these icons and folders freely on a grid like the Win10 Start menu allows. Still, Gnome comes quite close.

Thank you. I might just have to switch to KDE for that. Will install KDE on my current GNOME environment. Will give it a test drive.

Thanks for the suggestion. I looked at it. It is basically a simplified Windows 7 menu. Decent, but it doesn’t go far enough for me.

Gnome itself is actually not bad. It has a full screen menu and arrangeable application icons and folders, but I cannot group them the way I want, let alone resize them. I wish there was something for Gnome, but I don’t see it.

Perhaps I am asking for an edge case. Even Microsoft has dumbed down its Start menu in 11 to essentially a mobile launcher. Too few people seem to want that.

This looks great.

Suggestion: a step-by-step “howto” with an example or three to make it more useful for beginners.

At least they’re moo-ving.

In fact, we need MORE CO2!

Wake up, sheeple!
