I agree

Good. Fuck Israel. I hope their economy goes down the drain as quickly as possible.

Immich is funded by FUTO btw

Why?

An Alpine user, cool! What is it like to use it as your primary desktop OS? I have only played around with it on servers or in VMs and containers.

Paru > yay

On Arch I don’t need any, I just run paru without any options, which by default invokes a full Pacman update, as well as updating all AUR packages. But I have a system maintenance script, that, besides doing some other stuff that’s specific to my system, runs paru -Sc --noconfirm to clean the Pacman package cache, and delete unneeded cloned AUR Git repos and build artifacts.

Hmm, strange? How could that have happened? 🤷‍♂️

It’s impressive how many things can be achieved with nothing more than the power of open source software

Rclone with crypt seems pretty nice

I think Avalonia is pretty great for C# cross-platform UI stuff. JetBrains Rider is the best C# IDE on Linux.

Yes

I highly recommend the Prism Launcher. You can find it in the standard Linux Mint Software Manager.

Nothing about the program itself is subscription based. All of the normal features of an email client (that you would also find in Thunderbird) are available for free. You only need to pay if you want to use their services like Send later, read receipts or link tracking, because these requires backend servers and actually costs the money.

Thunderbird is the best IMO. Mailspring is also pretty good.

Yes, I know, draw.io theoretically isn’t entirely open source, but the source code is available and it can be self-hosted. Honestly, that’s good enough for me, I think I can make an exception for this one. But generally I care a lot about strictly using FOSS too. It can also be integrated with Nextcloud: https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/drawio

Frigate is pretty nice. If you need a simpler setup, go with Rpisurv, it’s made for a Raspberry Pi, and very easy to setup and use.

I’d say Nix requires some experience, so if you are new to Linux, definitely go with Flatpak. I believe Flatpak also provides stronger sandboxing.
