  • I’m using Linux for desktop since years - even my non tech savvy girlfriend uses KDE without issues on her laptop.

    What was your issue?

    I can’t stand to work with Windows. Is gruesome slow and confusingly designed. Configuration is splittered across the system. Some parts in GUI setting tools, some part in registry, some part in specific files.
    Error codes are completely useless under Windows. In Linux the error message gives me at least a clue what’s happening.

    I can’t understand how anybody can really work with Windows. Gladly I can do 99% of everything in Linux. Only some industry hardware configuration tools are still stuck on Windows.


  • Nah, I created a Lemmy account at the start of June (at least the Jerboa installation date says that) and uninstalled boost a few days later. Only checked in on Reddit from time to time with libreddit, to have a look at the John Oliver party.

    I deleted or mass-edited all my comments and sent an GDPR request. Only thing left after that is the account deletion.

    Didn’t want to give them any traffic anymore, so I avoided everything about it.



  • I currently live the remarkable 2 and also had the first one. Wouldn’t want to live without it, but the software is still not really there…
    There are some patched versions on GitHub with more functionality, but never tried it.

    Company itself argues, they want to be as near to paper as possible. so not many features, which is a fair design choice, but the software still feels sluggish and unoptimized imho
