as it should be, nobody likes proprietary vendor-locked formats that get shoved down your throat

surprise surprise: terminally online risers with 4chan lvl takes export their toxicity to everything they touch. thus get rightly hammered

there is an emacs command for that

I feel this, Gnome and it’s opinionated workflow just “gets out of the way” in my experience

The “trust us, we totally didn’t just remove the headphone jack to profit off of the TWS hypetrain” - “eco friendly” company? No thanks

idk about any ranking sites, but from what I understand, YaCy gets better the more ppl participate in it

other ppl already mentioned Searxng which is also great

Smth like yaCy?

I’m rly happy when ppl switch to a GNU/Linux OS, tho I would never recommend Ubuntu to anyone (anymore), since Linux Mint has a much saner no bs team that is not fucked over by a corporate

Or just plain Debian, which is wonderful as well

I plan on switching to Slowroll once it’s matured, but I think I’ll stay with Gnome :p

This is very similar to my experience tho I have skipped most of my ricing/customization phase with Gnome bc I just didn’t feel the need to do much about it bar a few extensions

I’m glad Fedora comes with the most usable no-bs/out-of-the-way (in my subjective experience) DE by default. Yes I do run it with Tweaks and a few extensions, but otherwise I have no need for extensive customization for customization’s sake (which seems so many ppls problem with GNOME, smth that I couldn’t find more irrelevant), since everything about its UI/UX is so intuitive. I understand if people don’t like its opinionated workflow, but it’s just right for me personally…

I don’t get the proposal either way bc Fedora has always been the spearhead of vanilla GNOME and there is an official KDE spin iirc

no you didn’t, you can install flatpak using the terminal but iirc flatpak are mostly made with GUI applications in mind, while snaps support installing command line utils quite well

…no?

The backend is proprietary and you or other orgs cannot run their own server. It’s harcoded to use Canonical’s servers for obtaining snaps and their metadata…

seething Ubuntu fans are funny af lol.
Your leash being longer than average doesn’t remedy the fact that you’re still tied to a pole…

snaps are a proprietary vendor-locked format, the only redeeming quality is being able to run them in cli (once Flatpak get that too, there is no valid reason for snaps to exist).

I just find it midly infuriating (if that even is a thing, meaning I hate it but it’s not that significant for me to distro hop on my work laptop) to have two “universal” package formats on my system with Canonical shoving the objectively worse one (from a free/libre pov) down my throat…

the average brain on Windows…

“wdym a different OS doesn’t behave exactly like Winsows? That just means it’s bad!”

“It’s Linux’ fault that my proprietary software/configurator for overpriced hardware gimmicks isn’t working and definitely not just the vendor not giving enough of a shit to provide support (or at least help with community drivers) on other platforms as well!!1!”

we making it into techo-feudalism with that pattern 🗣️🗣️🗣️

yeah, unfortunately big brands (like Nike, Adidas and even Docmartens sadly enough TwT) nowadays just means discounter quality with a markup, unless you want to pay min. twice as much for higher quality stuff when compared to “smaller” companies

but ofc all those smaller companies are either getting bought up or run into bankruptcy by larger ones. Suchis late stage capitalism ig…

(btw I love the gay toggle on your website >w<)

uuu thx for the suggestion, might buy some of these for more fem outfits

doghammer seems interesting, but they don’t seem to have neither monochrome black nor monochrome grey shoes

which is a make or break for me, since I only wear black all year round and make exceptions for hot summer days during which I wear only grey >w<

Will definitely look into whether Altberg is worth the hassle, makes a good first impression tho
