I’d love too, but they never send a verification email and the captcha doesn’t work on the login screen for some reason

The UI works well. Can’t get it to play videos on my Pixel 8 though.

Definitely will try again once it’s on F-Droid proper.

Fedora.

I’ve tried them all but found it’s the most reliable. It’s upgrades are even more reliable than Macos and Windows.

Packages are very up to date but also well tested. Sometimes even newer than Arch for short periods.

The community is awesome.

I love Gnome, I’ve found it’s more consistent than even MacOs in its design. And it has perfect keyboard shortcuts.

Thanks I didn’t even know I was blocked I just thought the site went down

VRR, HDR.

It also had an early patch for nvidia support on Wayland earlier in the year.

I believe mutter-vrr has gotten merged though, behind a dconf flag

Gnome on the laptop, its keyboard and touch gestures are the best for notebooks. I also like its simple design and reliability.

KDE on desktop, I’d use gnome, but kwin has more gaming relevant features.

Yeah but I imagine porting a JVM and an API using open source code is much easier than reversing the Windows API.

This list is awesome. Unsurprisingly nearly every game has bad reviews.

They’re not even for denuvo itself.

I wonder. Do the shitty shovelware games gravitate towards Denuvo? Or do they install denuvo as part of their enshittification process

Its simple.

Pirates don’t ruin games for other players.

Pirates ruin games for the dealers.

Personally I don’t consider it a con unless rampant. However in many cases they’ve dumped the projects. It is effort that could have helped along another project.

imo the negative side effect is the wasted effort and the abandonment.

The thing is. Snaps isn’t the first controversy.

Canonical, with Ubuntu early on was helping drive things forward, but they reached a point where they started to do things their own way with disregard to the broader ecosystem.

Each time they did this, they cause fragmentation, struggled, and then deferred to the choice the rest of the ecosystem has. The problem with this is that they’re not sharing their effort, they’re just throwing it away.

They merely doubled down hard on snaps which is the latest controversy.

Snaps have their own advantages, but Canonical owns the store. Which becomes its own stalewort

I felt the same however Organic Maps did have many businesses. And with Street Complete I can correct any errors when I visit.

It may simply be my area, but I so recommend organic maps over Osmand for business and POI lookups

I also am very fond of 8.10. It was my first exposure to Linux :)

I agree with you, I don’t want the trouble and just use mailgun free tier.

That said, I just need password reset emails for my IAM solution.

I imagine some just want to try, under the desire to avoid having their email data misused for data collection / ai training

Some news sources sell suvscrptions via newsletter.

Personally I find it quite nice, its similar to RSS and has high quality authors.

You can absolutely get by by, and have a great experience with GNOME + the app store.

Its a reason its default on so many distros.

Google Pay/Wallet

Right now tap and pay is completely and hopelessly corporate

I can still visit this instance

Speaking of hard Windows things being easy on Gnome. The Gnome smb and rdp sharing capabilities work simply turning them on.

In Windows it’s a whole mess trying to force it to refresh the network or wait for that diagnostic loading bar while it resets everything for it to sometimes work.

Meshtastic!
