On my main laptop I use KDE, it’s smooth and gets the job done. On my tablet, I use GNOME. It runs well, and is touch-optimized. On my other laptop, I use gnome for no particular reason.

I bought two of these a few years ago and they are really reliable. USB 2.0 so they are slow as shit, but I still use them to install linux.

Already switched to linux. I still have one windows drive that I haven’t booted for about a year. Haven’t relied on virtual machines or anything.

I bought a wear os watch deliberately because I thought I would enjoy modifying and customizing it like a regular android phone. In reality, I don’t use it much more than for fitness tracking. I’m going to buy a garmin instinct and not change for the next 4 years.

It’s answers just don’t feel as good as chatgpt. Sometimes they are incorrect, and sometimes they are lackluster.

I don’t understand how people can use Gemini. I have always had bad experiences with it.

DDG does have its issues like giving me random news articles from my area if it cant find anything relevant…

I miss old mrwhosetheboss who was more technically knowledgeable. He was talking about android modifications like roms that he probably would never talk about today.

This looks nice but what license does it use?

I’m not a vandal, but…

The "smart"ification of stuff has got to stop. Nobody asked for wireless connected robots that don’t let you connect to your own server even. Maybe if these worked with home assistant this wouldnt have happened, because home assistant devs are more competent that big corporations.

I hope google gets fucked up the ass with this, because the play store is a cancerous app store thats giving android as a whole a bad name. I trust F-droid about 50x as much as I trust the play store just because of it promoting honesty and transparency from app developers. At this point, if I want an app that’s not on f droid, I usually just won’t get it.

Anyone know about lineageos tv? It looks cool, but there might be some issues I dont know about not using it yet.

Just curious do you know why the F-droid repo says the app has trackers?

typing this from firefox on a tablet ;)

Hope he has a spot in the wilderness to hide out.

Ice Universe is generally reliable as a leaker but this didn’t seem fact based, it just seems like a random guess. Hey, I’ll bookmark this post to see if it comes true…

Is there something about chromium that makes people stick to it? I’m sure the kiwi browser is good, but why not just use firefox or Mull Browser from the creators of divestOS.

Manifest v3 extensions*

Yes. I know it’s not realistic, but it would still be cool
