@petsoi Beautifully written perspective; the KDE Activities bit of that was my favorite! Multiple workspaces on a single monitor is probably one of my most advocated features. I'm telling someone about it at least once a week, even if it's just showin em how to use the cut-down one on their windows machine.

@lemmyreader @cafuneandchill PostmarketOS in chroot in termux in waydroid on PostmarketOS 🤘

@LukeSky #lutris is good for more'n just games 😉

@lemmyreader Looks quite snazzy!

@TimeSquirrel @nicknonya Been runnin basically the same setup for the better part of ~20 years. That's not gonna stop me from playin with stuff I don't know or like though.

@barbara Is bash itself not already an improvement on ""the basic stuff""?

...and whitespace in filenames is simply unacceptable, and should not be encouraged. 😆

What's wrong with the method we've been usin forever of working with dumbly named files? Just "enclose em", or use\ an\ escape\ char in em.

@SeekPie Documentation or translation assistance is almost always a good way to help.

@JokeDeity Seeing a device called "Bluez" trying to connect to your computer (in some undefined way) doesn't necessarily mean it has anything to do with bluez.

@leninmummy I've found that many new users can't be bothered to learn new things and don't understand enough about their situation to explain the problem they're having. What they are looking for is someone to simply give them the answer so they can carry on. Many times they'll wind up looking for an answer to a generic question related to, "this doesn't work", and find a generic answer that doesn't work or breaks something when they copy and paste it to their system.

@pluja You'll be happiest using whatever you're comfortable maintaining/troubleshooting. I've spent ~20 years playing with many different distros for one reason or another and the only one I can't stay away from is #gentoo. As with most things, everyone's got different tastes, that's the great thing about having so much choice.

Nobody's reason for "the best" distro is gonna be the right one for you. You'll know what's right for you because it's the one you always want to use more than any other.

@salarua, @madcodger, the PWA is excellent! I've found it to be extremely responsive, even on older android devices. It's a very nicely built UI/UX. For me, it's already everything Misskey is but a bit more polished.

@serenity @f00fc7c8 @rom It's not even sorta fast, but I've found it to be the most functional for me out of the bunch. In addition to Friendica, I've played around with Diaspora, Mastadon, Pleroma, Misskey, plus the forks Calckey and Akkoma. Friendica's ability to easily follow tags and rss feeds, plus the lemmy and diaspora integration, as well as the ease of import/export really shows where some of the others are lacking. That said, UI/UX customization in Friendica leaves quite a bit to be desired.
