Seriously Linus memes must have 20k of the remaining 35k users.

There is still way too much instability and too many paper cuts on KDE Wayland. IMO if you have waited this long just wait for their Qt6 release. X11 will remain the best supported experience for KDE 5.

Can you try using a tool like Crystal disk to check your drive health. Once when I had similar symptoms my drive was just weeks from failing completely.

It's the best of both worlds. Young, tight knit community with a mature UX.

Zoom works just fine on voyager.

Given the work by the guys behind podcasting 2.0 it would be interesting to see the fediverae adopt boosts backed by sats / the lightning network. It seems like they solve a lot of the same problems. You need a common currency people can freely transfer in small amounts to support content they like and the infra they are hosted on.

Here is an article by one of my favorite podcasts that have gone all in on boosts.

And here they were saying the private subreddits were causing usability issues...

The admins, not to be out done, have now just broken search links and user experience for the whole rest of the site. Not just for the private subreddits.

I can take my browsing somewhere else, but the biggest casualty of reddit's implosion for me will be the years of help posts in hardware and Linux focused subs.

The gist seems to be they want to abuse the UBI images or low cost cloud instances to rip out the RPM sources. Those statements would make me really nervous if I had a business using Rocky. Strange for an enterprise Linux focused server distribution. I think Alma's approach shows a lot more maturity and foresight as a project.

I couldn't live without one these days. I personally use Bitwarden. I have tried most of the other manager suggested in this thread. They each their own benefits. I would recommend one of the hosted services for most people (1password, Bitwarden, not LastPass). I came to prefer Bitwarden for their combination of features and openness. I have self hosted it in the past, but these days just use their hosted service.

There are a lot of side benefits to using one besides just remembering your usernames and passwords for you too.

  • It lets you use catch-all emails if you have your own email domain
    • allows you to give services their own address to track abuse
    • makes you more resistant to someone taking your leaked credentials from one site and using it for another
    • easier spam filtering
  • Most password managers support random password generation
  • Saving things that aren't logins
    • Family member's SSNs and DL numbers
    • Credit cards
    • Wifi passwords
    • Gate codes
  • Sharing always up to date passwords and other secrets with people (for hosted options)
  • 2FA is easier
