"Anyone can download the app, but free users will be given a 14-day trial to test drive it.’

So it’s only for premium users ?

I did an experiment where I used Distrobox for many apps not available on Debian. I installed an Arch distrobox and exported the packages. I found that it works great with simple programs, but I run into a few issues when using more complex programs. Jellyfin Media Player for example tended to have a memory leak and have a core dump on the desktop whenever it is closed. It uses twice as memory as the Flatpak for some reason. I had the same issue with Stremio which is also a video streaming app. For command line things it’s mostly fine. But this too can get tricky. I tried to use Neovim (Debian’s is a bit old) in the Arch distorbox. The issue is that if you need plugins that require some dependency with a given version then you have to also install those and export them which makes things messy. For example you may have a version of Nodejs on your Debian install but you’ll need to install Nodejs on the distorbox too and export it. It’s the same with many packages like that. You’ll run into some issues and waste time trying to figure out where is it coming from. Is it your machine or the distorbox? I ended up just building from source. Overall it’s a great project and might work for some software that you need. But it’s not something you can always rely on for everything. The app devs are not testing for that specific use case. It’s so great for testing and installing stuff and then destroying when you don’t need it anymore.

Is Logseq FOSS ?

FOSS generally puts more pressure on people to write better and safer code, because you know everyone is going to look at it. Even when vulnerabilities are found, they are usually fixed so fast compared to the proprietary side. There are stories of people waiting 6 months for Microsoft to fix a vulnerability, while an Openssh or openssl issue is usually fixed in a few days.

Thank you! This looks great. I’ll give it a try

Thank you! I am on Sway but I’ll take a look at this. I didn’t know there were premade userChrome themes. This is awesome

Yes I did some searching and was confused as to which one is the legit site now. It seems to have changed a couple of times. I don’t know if this is run by the same people as getintopc.

Great answers here. I’d just like to add that X and Wayland are not completing. In fact, most of the Xorg devs are the ones working on Wayland. You can find Wayland mentioned in the Xorg Foundation Website.

That’s a bad analogy. A browser with 5 tabs is not like having 5 different browsers open.

Had me at “References >> 5 years old Chris Titus Tech YouTube video”

I just have a bunch of search addons for different sites directly in qBittorrent. I haven’t made a website search for a long time.

Software information says you’re already using Fedora ? Do you mean you want to switch distros ? If so, it’ll be useful to say what you’re looking for and why Fedora didn’t fulfill those needs so we can recommend alternatives.

Yea I am using the “official” app on Android and didn’t have that issues. It seems to be only on IOS. She switched to Metatext now and didn’t have that issue.

She ia using the “official” Mastodon app because I didn’t wanna confuse her first. She’s on Metatext now and the issue is gone

It’s not even available in many countries. Even if it were, the price is steep especially in third world economies. It’s probably not that big of deal for many in the US but most people in third world countries would find it so hard to squeeze it into their budget.

I haven’t been on Reddit since that time. I am really enjoying Lemmy especially now that I can use Eternity, the Lemmy fork of the reddit Infinity app I’ve used so long. It feels so familiar

When installing Debian, if you choose to enable a root account then sudo is not installed by default and your user isn’t added to the sudo group. Next time try to opt for not enabling the root account to have a similar experience to other distros. Debian does this doe security reasons but it’s annoying for users used to a certain way of doing things. Many distros just disable root account by default so you don’t see that issue.

I think EF channel made a video recently covering some foundations while installing Arch. Maybe it’s close to what you’re looking for

Piracy makes up for some huge inequalities in the world. The prices for digital goods do not usually take into account the economies of certain regions. I live in Morocco and our money is really low compared to the dollar. 1 dollar is like 7 Dirhams. The average salary for a normal job is really low if you convert it to dollars. So services like Netflix and HBO would cost 10 times more if you factor in wages and conversion to dollars. Why should we pay that just because we live in another place ? Why do these services pretend to be global and yet they are enforcing US prices on the rest of the world. You can’t even speak of physical goods because Amazon doesn’t give a fuck about Africa. Books would cost 3 times their price in shipping and you have to wait a month or so, not to mention that there are limits on how much currency you spend internationally. The fees for an international card are so high also. In short, without piracy 90 percent of the world wouldn’t be able to partake in anything.
