I mostly use Discord for a few group chats, unixporn (please post more of it to Lemmy :3 [email protected]) and some BG3 stuff. If the group chats moved to Matrix+Jitsi or even some form of Signal (that is still foss and does not require a phone number, self-hosted if possible) I would barely use Discord.
Edit because somehow I missed the most relevant part: I already barely get memes or trolls so not too many changes there.
I pretty much only use Lemmy but also contact friends and share photos on a Nextcloud instance one of them kindly provided (I assume it isn’t federated though?).
I would really like to start using matrix but unless I host my own instance and get everything ready I’ll never be able to convince my friends to switch, though some of them are slowly getting fed up with discord too.
I have an i3 and a hyprland installation.
I like tiling wms but Wayland still has some annoying issues so I like having the more stable i3 installation on my main computer.
The same AI that was doing those Amazon go stores?
That’s an exaggeration…
I use a Wayland version of rofi when I use hyprland though wofi probably works fine too (which I believe is default as per the config).
I have that feeling with almost every proprietary binary from a website nowadays.
I’ve used Sycthing but it was somewhat finicky.
I have a laptop with 4GB of RAM and it works fine, my fedora i3 installation. It’s nothing compared to a proper computer but it’s not like I ever run out of RAM either. (Generally I open two Firefox windows, discord and vscode)
I would say it’s about thunar configuration or URL handler configs more than anything. The other comment has what looks like a good solution for x11, no idea if it works on Wayland though.
I agree but windows does come with a version of tar preinstalled installed. I’m not sure if it uses xz though.
The reason I named xz though is the xz-utils backdoor that was such a big deal.
xz seems like another good example
Or you could just install it on any other system with Wayland or x11.
Gparted works fine for me, so that’s what I use.
I personally enjoy knowing that the communities I’m a part of are decentralised and don’t exist to show me ads. I also like being able to use an open source app to access them.
This is why I don’t like Reddit and wouldn’t call this a clone.
Honestly I think an emulation would be a better analogy.
Keep in mind that if it is a serious security issue many projects have a way of reporting them separately from other bug reports so the issues can be patched before being published.
Oh wow, I’m curious how they detect spoofed hardware.
I do the same but I recommend starting with dual boot and most people are stubborn and still don’t. Two of my friends are interested, one is waiting until they get a new machine. With the other Bitlocker got in the way the first time but now on an older laptop we’re going to try arch (it was their request) so I’m excited to give that a try. They are mostly interested because of security reasons, while the other is annoyed with the windows c compilers. It just shows how many reasons there are to use Linux and how difficult it can be in other cases.
There’s no way to completely avoid cheaters and I really don’t get why there’s so many windows games that want Kernelmode access. You could still read the memory and emulate inputs based on that or draw something on the screen. It’s probably just causing the cheaters who want to download something and win to get more viruses (which most probably deserve assuming the viruses aren’t too bad), while the game company gets closer to being indistinguishable from a virus itself.
Seriously you’re recommending Reddit to a Lemmy user?
What does that face mean?
