CachyOS is never going to be ready for beginners, because that’s not its target audience.

I don’t think people who aren’t willing or lack the knowledge to tinker should use anything Arch.

CachyOS doesn’t support Flatpak out-of-the-box because they think their repositories have everything.

I’m not even sure if they support AppImage by default, but both of those installations is available with Orca Slicer on their official website.

If you wanna continue with CachyOS and use Orca Slicer:

sudo pacman -S flatpak

Download Orca Slicer Linux Flatpak x64

flatpak install \<path-to-flatpakref-file>

I just can’t get over the name change from Revolt to Stoat, but at least a stoat is cute AF.

I mean sure, if they have a specific need for MacOS, but otherwise I think it’s a bit disingenuous to recommend such an expensive platform.

It’s funny to think about, because I have the exact opposite experience. I think it really comes down to the type of person though.

Most of the people I help (with IT) is people who is not that comfortable on a tablet and would like the next step up. A cheap laptop, with bigger screen and a physical keyboard. Used for banking, writing, browsing. Nothing that really can’t be done on a tablet as well.

All of these people use Linux. Mostly Mint or ElementaryOS, depending on their preference.

If we add gaming into the mix, it becomes a little more “complicated”. This really depends on the person. I have family/friends who game on Linux, but I also know one who didn’t last that long using Linux, because it simply didn’t fit their needs.

In what way do you define “just needing a computer to use when they need it”?

I have several family members and friends who know absolutely nothing about computers. They all use Linux and the amount of IT-support needed has never been lower.

The US has a very weird take on race.

I2P

What’s the average age of the people you help?

I guess that’s a start.

My only issue with .ml that it’s pretty much lemmygrad.ml and hexbear.net in disguise. They are simply not being honest about who the instance is for.

Don’t misunderstand. I don’t have anything against any of them, but they should really just be honest who lemmy.ml is for. Just like lemmygrad.ml and hexbear.net is.

Lemmygrad.ml first rule is: No capitalist apologia / anti-communism.

This is pretty much a hidden rule on Lemmy.ml.

I remember a long time ago when Nutomic was hosting peertube.social. There, the rules was very honest and you knew what you signed up for in the instance. So why not just do that now as well?

Hint: look at Dessalines modlog

Or when they keep calling European countries socialist lol

People have been made used to closed gardens. Some people can’t comprehend that open gardens and free choice exists.

PeerTube as an alternative to YouTube. It has both on-demand-video and live streaming.

Owncast as an alternative to Twitch. No doubt.

This video is Gardiner though, reacting to a video from Linus.

I agree with your statement about Linus though.

Who?

I haven’t watched the movie, but I would imagine Africans is pretty common around Greece?

It’s Gardiner’s official PeerTube channel.

Well, that’s one way content creators can earn some money, instead of relaying on Google ads.
