It only matters if people are educated enough to understand why it’s important.

There are widely available options as it is. The majority of people don’t care at best. And get offended at the notion of using them at worst.

In think it comes from flathub not having many cli applications in it. I’d love to drop snaps for Flatpak only. But I can get so many snaps that aren’t on flathub it’s crazy.

Anxiety spiking(or should I say spookying) hard.

Oh. Interesting. What do you keep when you export?

They do make some strange choices. But yeah, I agree. Also, on Gnome, everything else feels a bit rough around the edges.

Pretty accurate meme though.

iPhone 16 pro. Too early to tell but this might be my favorite ever.

Previous ones I also really enjoyed were all nexus or pixels but they all inevitably shit themselves after a couple years of use. Most recent one pixel 7 just decided it was gonna drain 6% battery per hour while idling out of nowhere. And nothing I tried fixed it. And I tried a lot.

Idk. I built my first computer at 6 and ran an irc server for my class mates back in middle school. And I’m sure not many people would have done that back then either.

Im sure there’s plenty of curious and tech inclined kids these days. They just aren’t the majority. But we weren’t back then either.

Mlem looks the best but it feels choppy as hell. So I’m using voyager instead still quite good and runs smooth.

The first mistake was liking a company.

As simple as the title sounds I'm having huge trouble getting that working.

Thunderbird only fetches new mail while it's open.

Who the heck knows how to get evolution/geary to play nice with business gmail/protonmail.

Does anyone have a simple way of solving this problem?

edit. Also, somewhat related, is there a good looking, simple e-mail client? Thunderbird looks busy. Geary kinda looks okay but I cant get it to work at all.

I end up manually clicking to turn it on anyway every time. Would love to automate it.

That's a relief.

So just go on about my merry way and if someone corrects me respect their choices ?

I have a few questions on how to best behave to be as welcoming and inclusive as possible without sounding bad. I hope you guys don't hate me.

I'm just a straight male. Are my pronouns he/him? Is that how I should tell people? Do you actually tell them as you meet them ? Do I have to wait for a certain social cue ?

How about online. Should I tell people or have it on my personal profile somewhere?

And about respecting other people's pronouns. How do i figure them out ? Is it a big faux pas if I don't before I know them ? Is it a faux pas if I refer to someone I just met and I assumed to be male as he/him?

I've never seen anyone referring to anyone irl by non conventional pronouns. Is it an actual thing or is it currently being pushed to make the world a more inclusive place?

I'd love some help with all of this.

Would love this. I'm still getting the ftpm stutters and there's no way to disable it in my motherboards bios.

I usually trust my distro repos without checking. Can the same be applied to flathub without much worry?

I gave it a fair shot for about a year, using vanilla GNOME with no extensions. While I eventually became somewhat proficient, it's just not good.

Switching between a few workspaces looks cool, but once you have 10+ programs open, it becomes an unmanageable hell that requires memorizing which workspace each application is in and which hotkey you have each application set to.

How is this better than simply having icons on the taskbar? By the way, the taskbar still exists in GNOME! It's just empty and seems to take up space at the top for no apparent reason other than displaying the time.

Did I do something wrong? Is it meant for you to only ever have a couple applications open?

I'd love to hear from people that use it and thrive in it.

So. I tried bitwarden for a while with 2fa. I absolutely did not realize that if you lose your 2fa you are done in that service. So yeah. Time to rebuild.

I'm attempting to go all in on proton stuff ATM. Drive, email, vpn and password manager.

What's the easiest way to set everything up in a way that the whole system is safe and that minimizes the chance of me locking myself out ?

Stuff like. Do I bother with 2fa? What are yubikeys. Are these the answer? Do I 2fa all.accounts other than the protonmail one ?

Long single use case passwords or memorizable ones ?

Do I do throwaway emails or everything signs up to my main one ?

Sorry if I overloaded questions. But id love go get insight from people with more experience.

Edit. And oh. Threat model.

Id love yo not lose accounts if someone physically steals one of my devices.

I'd love to not get hsckdd online by someone random that is not targeting me specifically

And in broad strokes. I'd like to keep all my accounts as private as possible from private companies and governments. But im flexible on this one if its too much hassle.
