L3ft_F13ld!

I’m torn between both sides of this argument. If I lost access to Netflix I wouldn’t be too bothered. But, I also understand that other people see the value in it and would be happy to subscribe if they lost access to an account that was shared with them.

Just out of curiosity, what difference would PAE make in this argument? What is the memory limit on a PAE-enabled kernel? What other differences would it make?

LineageOS would probably also be a decent choice if they don’t absolutely have to have no Google at all.

They say Emacs is an amazing OS, with the best calendar, to-do list, email client, etc. Just missing a good text editor.

Honestly, what I like about it started with the mascot. Otherwise, I like the fact that the rolling release has automatic testing to make sure it’s mostly reliable. Many people will also tell you how amazing YaST, their “control panel”, is. There’s definitely some stuff to get used to, like patterns and zypper. But, for a set and forget system, it’s hard to beat IMO.

If you’re looking for stable and up to date, give openSUSE Tumbleweed a shot.

I always made sure my laptops had tlp installed. Now it seems openSUSE has cpu power profiles daemon or something by default, which it says conflicts with tlp when I tried to install it. So, I’m giving that a shot.

You probably didn’t have a lot of AUR packages installed. That seems to be a big issue for Manjaro. They hold packages back and the AUR just keeps going so things get out of sync and break.

I think they mean the fact that the development team has seen some shuffling and the project stagnated for a bit. I love Budgie, which comes from Solus, but I’d rather use it on a different distro than using Solus, which seems a bit off-balance at the moment. Give them time to stabilize before trying them.

Pixeldroid is a third party app. Pixelfed has their own official app as well if that matters to anyone.

No, apt usually gives you native .deb installs. Flatpak and Snap are two different container technologies for distributing apps.

I’ve heard that snaps are great for servers, which is where Ubuntu is focused these days. Also, they want people to use their homemade technology instead of Flatpaks, which are much better for desktop users from my understanding.

Thank you. Got it set up now

I’m trying to add your instance to the LibreTube app. It’s asking for a URL to instance API. Where can I find this?

Like most of the apps at the moment, it’s under active development and improving rapidly. Don’t give up on any of the apps you try too quickly.

I’m in the same boat. Liftoff is working well at the moment but I’m waiting for Slide to get better.

I know RedReader is one of the apps that’s being allowed as an accessibility tool. But, even then they’ll still be cut off from NSFW content if I understand right. This means you get access to some of Reddit but, obviously not all of it, which is just BS for anyone who wants to keep using it.

There’s Liftoff, wefwef.app (web app), Slide is still very early alpha, Thunder. There are a lot of options.

As much as they all copy from each other, it’s never a 1:1 copy. The copy is almost always slightly inferior to the original. Even if they all had exactly the same features, they’d look or function slightly differently. I do wish they’d stop copying though. Keep them seperate because they’re all meant for different purposes. At least, they used to be at one point.

It took me a while to get used to openSUSE as well. I’ve been enjoying it though.
