Hello everyone, I just installed Linux (I'm new to it), in particular Linux Mint, with dual booted Windows for games. Tinkered with it a bit, loved the way it looked, loved how fast it is, but I really don't want to stop on one option and stick with it for a while. I want to try new stuff, new distros (that's how you call it, right?), new customisation options etc. I really like setting up things how I want them to look like and function, and I'm not sure Linux Mint gives me the full potential of Linux.

If I'm right, please recommend something that really will impress me with options (I wouldn't call myself tech savvy, but I like to learn), or, if I'm wrong, please suggest the way to customize the hell out of Mint, would really appreciate it.

Thank you!

edit: Thanks everyone for your replies, I'm really interested in KDE Plasma now. You are the best <3

Hey everyone, just wanted to express my gratitude towards lemmygrad and its community. Every time I feel like I don't belong, or generally get sad about the situation in the world and in my country, I can come here and get to see people sharing the same ideas and worldviews that I have, and it makes me so much happier, more hopeful even, which encourages me to continue expressing my beliefs, learn more and try to make situation a little better.

So thank you, lemmygrad, and thanks to all the comrades who are present here.

edit: sorry comrades from hexbear, you are also awesome and thank you for federating with us!

So, comrades, I learned that, apparently, lemmygrad is blocked from other pretty popular but liberal (liberals block others, lol) instances and I don't quite understand how that works.

I can't see posts that were made from other instances? I'm using Jerboa and have an account on lemmygrad and I can see posts from lemmy.ml, but, I guess, I can't view even non-political posts like memes from instances that blocked lemmygrad?

Hey guys! Murkiian here.

I had an idea, or rather a request in mind that I would like to share with y'all. It's regarding buildings in our city that use pretty much the same resources all the time, and if other comrades agree with me, I think we need to diversify the number of blocks we use in our builds.

I like wooden materials myself, but considering that we are building a city and that we can get access to the more interesting blocks, since we are rapidly expanding, I think it would be a good idea to put this expansion to the good use and really diversify how our city looks.

What do you think?

I just returned from reddit's front page because I had nothing better to do, saw post in r/pics and decided to check the comments... it was a mistake

People cannot just think straight, right? They will believe every fucking piece of information they see, I presume.

This tragedy is FULLY BENEFICIAL TO UKRAINE, IT first and foremost DAMAGES RUSSIAN LINE OF DEFENCE AND BARELY TOUCHES UKRAINE’S. That’s because right side of the river is much higher than the left side, so destroying the dam is just a shot in the foot for Russia.

You can see it on the map, you hear it from the officials, you can hear it from UKRAINE that: “they knew all along” and it won’t affect their plans. HOW CONVENIENT!

And all of that is not even considering that Ukraine has shelled this dam since Russia took it over (almost a year). You can see on the screenshot how many times dam and Novokakhovskaya Hydroelectric power plant were discussed in local Telegram channel and I swear, 70% of all of these posts are reports of bombings, explosions etc, they even have videos of it.

• Kremia now has shortage of water because of that: "The fact is that if they blow up the Kakhovka dam, then the issue of supplying water to Crimea will be closed once and for all. It will be impossible to restore it in the next 5-7 years." (21.10.2022)

• here's an interesting quote from Natalya Gumenyuk, press secretary of Operational Command "South": "The maximum that Russia can do is only slow down the Ukrainian military. But it will be a critical scenario." (24.10.2022)

But no, after all of that fucking information, people and their fucking rotten brains will still blame Russia for everything because #RUSSIAISATERRORISTSTATE

give me a fucking break
