45+ is “older people” to you?

Just for choosing: https://distrochooser.de/ - or put some distros with a tool like Ventoy on a USB stick and do a live install to test it on the actual system. The many options are a great thing, but of course not easy to get into at first. So I’d try not to overthink it, distrohopping is a hobby for some of us :D

Have a good transition and if you stick with Mint, I’d recommend the official forums for any questions: https://forums.linuxmint.com/index.php

Yes, KDE Plasma is a DE which is not supported by Linux Mint anymore. So I had to switch distros too.

Great post, I especially enjoyed reading the comments on the different distros you’ve tried. I totally agree with the statement that (almost) everything can be done with Linux.

I am using Linux Mint because it was the first distro I’ve found that would get my weird WiFi on my old Laptop to work and so I ended up using it on my main machine as well. But I’ve recently looked around for something new. Not that I’m not happy with Mint, just out of curiosity. Been eying KDE Plasma for a while but not sure if I want to give up the convenience of knowing Mint quite well. And I had to switch distro cause Mint isn’t supporting KDE natively anymore. Or maybe I should just play around with some new themes for a fresh look :).

Is there a text version of this interview?

Yes. It’s like “let’s not pursue new ideas, it’s too risky. Let’s repeat what worked once” - like in the movie industry as well. It’s boring and uninspired.

Same for me. But then a friend played like an hour together with me, showed me the ropes and I haven’t stopped playing since. Not all the time, but like one playthrough a month or so.

Wow, this is BIG. Especially the export option. You rock!

That’s great to hear, thanks.

Great project, thanks for sharing.

Quick question: will this be self-hosted only or will there be a public instance or something the like?

Or Bottles. That worked wonders with some software.

Thank you very much, it’s more clear to me now.

Could you elaborate a little on the syncing please, it doesn’t sound “all pretty easy” to me :). You are mentioning 3 apps, why do you need all of them?

Yes, just got the prompt in the System Reports!

Thanks for the heads-up!

“Upgrade instructions for Linux Mint 21 and 21.1 will be provided shortly.” And now we wait :)

Stardew Valley. I don’t find it relaxing at all but a chore and stressful due to the day/night cycle. I feel like Terraria is handling day/night much better.

Actually I feel excited, because Lemmy has sparked a new interest in news aggregators and the fediverse and I’m enjoying my time here a lot.
