Well, I would go to the theater if there was anything worth watching. These days, I can't seem to find the excitement I used to have to go to the theater and watch a movie I'm interested in.

I don't think this should surprise anyone, given the new CEO they got and the announcement that was made immediately afterwards, followed by the layoffs. Fortunately, there are Firefox forks that we can switch to as a form of protest, provided that the forks keep these changes out of their codebases.

One thing I predict happening is that this move by Mozilla could spur more activities for the Firefox Forks. It would be a good opportunity for the developers of Mull, Librewolf, and Waterfox to think of ways to make their respective browsers stand out or be unique. Maybe we can one day see an Android version of Librewolf or a new web engine get developed in response to all this mess. Just a thought, of course.

Cool, I'm liking this new Mozilla already! ...NOT!!!

So, who else should we expect? Uma Thurman? Samuel L. Jackson? Christoph Waltz?

I made the switch to Linux about 1.5 years ago. Never looked back. I started with Linux Mint and have been happy with it ever since. Now, I'm learning about Arch Linux and trying to make that my primary driver.

FYI, you don't have to get a Steam Deck to try out gaming. I'm sure your current distro would support that quite well. But, if you're looking for something that is portable, then I definitely recommend the Steam Deck. Now is a good time to get one, since they released a refresh with an OLED screen. Also, the Steam Deck runs on Arch Linux, so if you're ever interested in checking that out, then definitely get a Steam Deck.

One thousand TikToks? How do you retain your sanity from watching that many?

Perhaps you can tell me why you recommend GrapheneOS over Calyx.

I personally recommend LibreWolf over Firefox. It is a fork of Firefox, but it includes some additional settings for better privacy.

Flameshot is a pretty useful screenshot tool that functions similar to the Snip tool on Windows.

If you're going to be installing apps via Flatpak, I recently learned of an app called Warehouse that allows you to view all the Flatpak apps you installed, the user data associated with each app, and their file location.

If you want another option for LibreOffice, you can try OnlyOffice, but I personally prefer LibreOffice.

If you're looking for a text editor that's like Notepad++, I recommend checking out NotepadQQ.

Finally, if you want a notebook app similar to Microsoft OneNote, I'd like to recommend Joplin.

It isn't the default search engine on my browser. I'm using Kagi at the moment.

I'm going to view this as a boon to the good people in Europe.

Well, it's not letting me read the article unless I pay for a subscription.

[-] heygooberman@lemmy.today 10 points 1 year ago

Excuse me, but is there another news source that talks about the same topic but doesn't require a subscription or have a paywall?
