Just say you don’t like Ubuntu lol
Eventually Linus himself will come and personally re-write your cfg file for you
You probably shouldn’t be accessing a linux distro’s website from mobile
I don’t think it’s good to hand-wave a website’s poor user experience and instead blame the user’s device. The fact of the matter is that Debian’s website is not as responsive as it could (imo, should) be and results in a bad user experience. With mobile traffic being responsible for over 55% of the internet’s traffic, it can be generally assumed a user’s first experience learning about a distro will be on a mobile device. If that first impression is bad, that can spell bad news for that distro’s adoption/onboarding.
I’ve enjoyed No Man’s Sky since day 1. I didn’t really follow the game or any of the major hype behind it, I just saw a cool space game on ps4 and played the hell out of it. Fell in love with the music, the setting, and just walking around weird landscapes, flying to different atlas stations, and just enjoying being alone.
I still play it, and am so happy HG continues to give the game constant love and attention, but there are days I turn networking off on my ps4 and play the 1.0 version again, just to go back to that part of my life for a little bit.
Taking a cursory look I feel like posts still aren’t being engaged with like they used to. I remember seeing posts with 100,000 upvotes very regularly on the front page, but you really don’t see that anymore. Yeah maybe they tweaked their calculations but why make your site look like it’s not as engaging as before right before a major IPO offer?
Linux Mint: Debian Edition. Love mint’s cinnamon DE, and the plus of being away from Canonical’s shenanigans is great. It’s been stable and my daily driver for months now.
Or vertical icon-only tabs!
I’m seeing double here! 4 interrobangs!
If I had a nickel for every time I saw an interrobang today I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it’s happened twice right?
I’m aware, patiently waiting for Jellyfin lol. I didn’t enjoy emby at all so Plex was the best “out of the box” solution for my use case
I prefer Plex for its stupid simple “press here to share your library with your family remotely.” And before the Jellyfin folks have an aneurysm, yes I know I can “jUsT uSe a ReVeRsE pRoXy” but I’m a busy guy and frankly lazy. So if Jellyfin wants wide adoption, it needs to make library sharing stupid simple.
The Boss from Saints Row IV. Intro was stupid fun, rest of the game was…ehhh
I managed to bork my first Linux mint install by not paying attention to my permissions I was setting for a usb drive and basically locked myself out of the system and prevented it from booting into the desktop environment. Lesson learned, don’t copy/paste commands from StackOverflow and run them without thinking about what you’re trying to do
NetBoot: “rather than offer you then illusion of free choice, I have taken the liberty of choosing for you”
If you throw away the trash can from your house, you still have to put the garbage somewhere. If a program is outputting errors or logs, it still needs to put them somewhere, so no more /dev/null means no more default trashcan for the system to send its trash, as far as I understand it
Ubuntu I feel is a necessary stepping stone for newbie Linux users, myself included. It’s a starting point that some may never leave, but as the user gets more comfortable I would hope they’d branch out to a different distro that better suits their needs. Sometimes it’s Ubuntu, many realize they should just run Debian with their wm of choice. Regardless of where they land, at least they aren’t using Windows
Ditto, it’s very capable and easy to use
