No need to use any of these flatpak/appimage/snaps when I can just make a package for my distro. Most software is not difficult to package.

Again, why use Windows at that point?
At that point please just use another OS. You should be keeping your OS up to date.
I really don’t like the trend of things that should be articles, being videos instead. And I’m very unlikely to watch one of these videos. However, this is a personal preference and I don’t necessarily think videos should be banned from this community. Instead upvotes/downvotes could decide that; if no one wants to see videos, no one should upvote them.
Well with short form videos your feed could be something more like a Twitter feed where you scroll through content from the accounts you follow instead of a grid of recommended videos where you click on one that sparks your interest. It is a different experience. Just like you could have a blog where every post is under 140 characters but why do that when you could just use Twitter. (disclaimer I do not claim to understand what has happened with X/Twitter now just assume I’m talking about old Twitter lol)
The touchbar appears to just be a very small touchscreen monitor. I’ve seen people use it to display bars on Linux. Not sure how much you have to fuck around with things to get it to work though
Snake case. I find it the easiest to read.
Thunderbird shows it for a at every startup
Honestly didn’t realise till you pointed that out. I’m so used to seeing it that it doesn’t register to me what it’s saying anymore. Probably for the best that KDE only does it once a year; if it were daily I’m sure it wouldn’t even register to people that it’s asking for donations.
Use rss feeds maybe? Adding /rss
to a tumblr blog’s url (in the x.tumblr.com format) shows an rss feed
Do you just need to write markdown? Plenty of text editors have a vim mode. Not sure if there’s any lightweight ones that do the markdown preview alongside a vim mode; I know IntelliJ-based IDEs have a vim mode and can preview markdown, but that’s not exactly a lightweight solution, and only the community edition is open source.
But also what exactly is it you’re looking for that Vim can’t do? I use Vim for writing pretty much everything. I use Vim for markdown and it works fine. Markdown is already pretty readable as a text file so I don’t feel the need for a previewer or anything like a rich text editor (but also there are plenty of markdown editors out there if you just want to edit markdown in a RTE).
Oh shit nice. Finally, the free as in speech beer
People need houses to live. Taking stuff off your own server doesn’t throw someone out onto the streets and leave them to the elements. Come on lol
uses busybox so I can um actually your um actually
Youtube doesn’t seem to inhibit idle for me for some reason, so my screen would always turn off with swayidle while watching youtube videos. So I made my lockscreen script (which is called by swayidle)
if [ "$(playerctl status)" = "Playing" ]; then
exit 0
else
exec "/path/to/lockscreen/script"
fi
(lockscreen script was just swaylock called with a bunch of arguments)
Not super crazy compared to some of the things people are saying in the comments, but also definitely not how you’re meant to handle idle inhibition when media is playing lol
If you mean what made me uninstall Windows, it was actually just not being able to do anything I wanted to do on Windows. I was already using WSL for most basic things and tried to set Windows up to be as similar to a Linux distro as possible eg only installing things with a command line package manager and looking into trying to get it to behave like a tiling window manager.
The biggest things were not being able to use some of my preferred software, e.g. my preferred PDF reader Zathura, and just having no clue what any of the commands were whenever I had to use PowerShell or CMD. I only really knew how Unix-like systems worked and was frustrated with my lack of familiarity with Windows and how their OS works.
The only reason why I kept a Windows partition was for gaming, but at this point Proton is so good there’s really no need for a Windows partition. And I rarely play video games these days anyway.
If you mean why I started using Linux, no reason, I’ve just always used it from a young age.
oh noooooo not the copyright infringement!
Wow. At least it’s easy to sideload apps in Android.
I never claimed I was trying to “sway over newbies”? Do what you want, this is just my personal preference.
