i guess it would make sense because the main philosophy behind cinnamon is to bring back old gnome2 and despise new gnome. it's almost like they're trying to make it better (i believe both cinnamon and gnome are awesome!!) and eventually make cinnamon the default de someday, has there been any sort of rivalry between the devs of both desktop environments?? like, i know it's not possible but what if a gnome update wouldn't let you install cinnamon and vice versa??

you're right, so that means that the admins of the servers that each lemmy instance uses are responsible for deleting or purging deleted content that can be undeleted? thanks

 

in favor of using ONLY MESSAGING SERVICES, public messaging services, sorta like discord if i want to make friends, because i realized that making friends is already hard enough and therefore it's harder to make friends in social media!! mostly because of the complicated ui!! dang it!! but yea if i were to ditch everything and instead use messaging services, PUBLIC messaging services like discord or even matrix, i think i would make friends more easily, that would make me very ok, plus i could show off more stuff that i've been working on like programming and get feedback and stuff, woa!! anyway what do you think please??

focus on myself and my art and my programming, get better at it, become popular!!! and give people valuable and good lessons, and stop eating junk food

 

hi i just wanted to ask a question which is the following umm why, why does when you do delete a post in profile your main profile does it not get deleted?? like it gets deleted but in the main profile it gets a little trash can symbol red symbol, red symbol on the right!! which means that it's been deleted but it still shows up in my profile history how can i delete it forever please?? thanks you so much!!!

yes it does incentivize me but that's just a proof of concept, well not really it's just vanilla linux mint which is user friendly lol!!! lol that's my favorite show btw, but if i had to make the distro usable for older people, i would put a landscape picture as a wallpaper

definitely yes but there has to be no snaps because otherwise the computer would be very slow!!

well i meant those two specific desktop environments because those two seem to be extremely customizable, which means icons, windows, etc can be rearranged to be more friendly

 

this is a topic i've been heavily involved with because i still consider myself to be someone who prefers using technology at a very beginner friendly level, plus it's very good when a linux operating system makes you feel right at home when it has a modern desktop environment. this is why i really like gnome, its simplicity and usability is something available for everyone, for beginners and for a lot of other people, but if you had to, say, rearrange xfce or kde for someone who was an elderly person or an absolute beginner so that they wouldn't have any trouble using linux, how would you do it? (screenshot is my current linux mint desktop, very simple and extremely user friendly!!!!)

well, because my laptop is a toshiba satellite, so that means that using a distro with gnome would completely destroy my laptop's ram and etc, that's why i like something lighter yet beginner/user friendly

 

what should i know?? will it go faster than xubuntu? because it doesn't use any snap applications?, will it have a modern ui? because, no offense, xubuntu's ui looks very outdated and i know i can change it but i want something straight out of the box, i've seen screenshots of mint xfce and it sorta looks like GNOME!!! amazing woa!!yea linux mint let's go!! what will be the pros be for using linux mint xfce please?? over xubuntu

edit: i've been using linux for 4 years now woa.. a huge trip yep!!!! my distro of choice was xubuntu, smol one wow!!! but now that i know mint has no snap and therefore no slowing down the laptop, i may go with that hey yea! so i'm not a newbie, i know the commands i know how to update wohoo!! and do all that stuff, basic things, thanks you

 

i was thinking about it and it does make sense yep

 

i like rhythmbox a lot and it's so great to use it as a music player but most of my music files don't even have any metadata it's just "song-name-author.opus" so it's a lot for me which is why i would use vlc instead yea!!! but anyway ummm why does xfce or gnome use rhythmbox??

 

a classic linux setup most users can relate to

 

so instead of placing my google accounts on my android phone, can i just use them directly from the browsers i use?? i know i wouldn't be able to use google play but i mean i have aurora store. would this be usable in the long-term?? a good way of using an android phone?

 

i was just wondering because i do talk to my friends most of the time through email and since gmail lets you add mpop and mop3 to email clients i figured it would be an interesting idea to use an email client on the terminal with built in notifications and stuff, thanks so much

 

i know that once you do bad things in the world you aren't considered pure or innocent anymore, but well maybe you aren't innocent but you can be pure?? if you did bad things can you be pure again?? this is not about religion but rather the truth of being a person yea!!

 

like what if linux still was open source but had a lot of proprietary dependencies and packages and became more popular and therefore proprietary software came to it?? but it still would let you use any desktop environment and there would be a new proprietary desktop environment which was like gnome but easier
