Dropbox works pretty well for me, however I’m planning on building my own home server with nextcloud setup as soon as I can.
Sort of just seems like math too me. If a basket has apples and oranges in it, but far more are apples then oranges, it’s safe to assume you’ll see more apples when you look in the basket. Doesn’t mean the oranges aren’t just a good as the apples, there’s just more apples.
Genuine question, and I don’t mean any disrespect, if down votes are intended to mean people disagree with you, and you don’t know these people, why did you care so much that you won’t share your opinion on things again? I’ve never understood this way of thinking. Maybe I’m just weird but I for the life of me can’t imagine caring that much about what strangers think.
I’ve noticed smaller groups work really well. Once they get too large they start to devolve into in-fighting causing smaller sub-groups within the main. It’s almost as if we’re just not designed as a species to communicate with this many people all at once…
Honestly the issue isn’t Reddit, it’s just people. Most people are decent to great, with a smaller group of bad to horrible. With more people on Reddit the pool of bad to horrible is bigger, and they tend to be the loudest of the bunch.
That’s an interesting setup. I really like vertical bars but haven’t figured out a solution for the clock that I like yet. This might work!
Anti-virus software is like a condom. If you don’t go sticking your computer in places it doesn’t belong you won’t really need one.
I recently realized, while dealing with some screen flickering with the most recent Nvidia drivers, that I had never used Linux without a Nvidia GPU. I’ve always had them in my computer so I always installed the driver. Lately I play mostly older games so I decided to remove the GPU and let my i9 sort out the graphics.
When I say it was a NIGHT AND DAY difference in overall quality I’m not kidding. Everything was buttery smooth and any lingering thoughts of missing Windows faded away. Honestly felt like I bought a new computer.
Now I’ve decided to sell my Nvidia GPU on eBay and either grab an AMD card or be bold and pick up an Intel Arc 750.
So in short, to echo Linus himself, fuck Nvidia.
Not to long ago I would of said Fedora but recently I’ve switched to OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and I’m really enjoying it. Still learning the ins and outs though.
A variety of reasons really. Privacy concerns, not having full control over my system with Windows, ads being pushed on my computer that I can’t turn off easily, Linux is more fun to use and learn about in general. Last but not least is community. The community around Linux is fun to be a part of and makes me want to learn more so I can contribute in any way I can to the projects that I like. Once you start really checking out Open Source software and what it represents it’s hard not to care about it.
It’s amazing how fast Reddit went from my favorite place to be online to a trash heap
That culture is human. If there are going to be humans on Lemmy, then you’re going to get the exact same pros and cons.
I’ve actually read the first three books and really enjoyed it. Somewhere down the line I forgot about the series somehow. I’ll add that to the list for sure.
I agree 100%. I tried Lemmy and Mastodon not very long ago out of curiosity and now I’m in the process of deleting my other social accounts. I didn’t realize how little I actually engaged with Reddit and Twitter until I started doing so here.
More and more of these communities are going to see the grass is actually greener on the other side once they’ve had enough of Reddits nonsense.
This is my daily driver tower.
I don’t use wifi however it did work out of the box. The only thing that required additional setup was the Nvidia card but the driver was available in the repos.
If you do end up testing it out on a laptop let me know how it goes. I have a Windows laptop lying around here somewhere that could use some love.
I can throw in a vote for Debian stable as well. I’ve recently installed Debian 12 and I’ve been blown away by how great it’s been compared to my recent Fedora 38 experience out of box.
I wish I could find a TV for sale that isn’t a Smart TV. It’s not necessary and you get issues like this down the road. I’m sure it isn’t too long until the other TV manufactures do the same thing.
