6 days agoThere’s quite a few nice apps for Lemmy. I’m using Connect for Lemmy on android and it’s wonderful.

OpenSuse Leap or even Tumbleweed. After getting the media codecs up and running, and remembering to set you firewall zone to “home”, you’re pretty golden.
Looks like something you’d see in a math textbook. I have one in the shelf called “An Atlas of Functions” that probably has this haha
Does CTRL-ALT-ESC still work in Wayland (assuming KDE, might be desktop dependent)

Actual artporn. Also, loving the writeups
What’s the weirdest one you’ve tried? Most challenging? Have you found any really cool defining features in any distro?
For example GoboLinux and NixOS eschew the Linux file hierarchy standard (FHS), and that becomes their defining feature. But many other distros have some other defining feature. Slackware uses tarballs as package management and oldschool init. LFS has you build from nothing. Etc.
So sad. Maintenance costs money though and it happens :/
With Lemmy, there could be multiple /c/ock communities – one per instance haha
Oh hi, this is me too. Since 1.0alpha ;)
48·4 months agoTheir website speaks corporatese. Not immediately clear what their business model is.
0·4 months agoSomeone enlighten me. How many active desktop projects are there currently? (Not just window managers…)
KDE Plasma, Trinity (is it active? Fork of KDE 3.5)
Gnome, Mate, Cinnamon (fork all the things!), or “reskins” like Unity or Budgie?
LXQt, Xfce… Is enlightenment still active as a project?
Does anyone use Deepin – appears to be a partial fork of KDE (kwin, etc.) with new desktop environment built around it rather than use Plasma.
Or Pantheon (Vala+GTK3?).
Cosmic is from the ground up, recent and active I guess.
Missing anything?
Connect saves drafts transparently as you move around the app.
All I’m hearing is complaining. It’s open source. Fix mate then so it does what you want.
5TB?! Well, I guess I need a new monitor ;)
Well, that’s on mate then. In KDE you could remap to a combo of your choice with ease
The Wikipedia article actually makes reference to this
Probably someone’s pet project
