Most distros have official forums, and may have sections specifically for people using Linux for the first time, which can also be great sources of information.

This is a frequent source of frustration for me, too. Can't even tell if it's cli or gui a lot of the time, based on the documentation. If I could just see what it looks like, I'd have a good idea right away of whether it might meet my needs.

My hate comes from wanting it to work like LView Pro. There's no Linux image manipulation program that comes close to meeting the standard they set in 2001.

Wow, I did not know that.

What does this mean?

Switching from QWERTY to Colemak on my phone was effortless, just installed it and started using it easily. Using QWERTY on my bf's phone feels awkward now, even though I use it every day with my computer keyboard. They definitely seem to occupy different mental spaces.

FlorisBoard has Colemak and swiping with predictions.

Gorgeous. I really need to try Flux.

I believe Reddthat federates with everything.

Failing the captcha doesn't mean you lose your user name. I failed a few times. There's a button you can click to generate a new captcha so you can try again.

I use Shotwell to organize my photos. It can handle creating folders by date automatically, and allows you to rate and tag. It works well for my needs.

Gorgeous.
