ZorinOS is doing awesome for begginers, LinuxMint is also a reliable option that might makes you learn more about GNU/Linux OSes

51·5 months agoWe have excellent free and open source alternatives to GitHub that are not run by Microsoft Core AI as a trap/jail for developpers.

Opensource@programming.dev•We need to talk about your Github addiction
11·5 months agoThanks for sharing theses very important thoughts. I think I agree with the author on this even though I am not a dev but I do some minor contribution from time to time.

If you don’t mind seperated tools that do well in their own :
- Zulip for chat
- Jitsi for video meeting
- And whatever calendar you want for the calendar

Linux@programming.dev•Vertical Mouse - alternative to Logitech Lift?
4·9 months agoI own a Lift and use it with my Mac Book, it’s great. I use it with bluetooth but it also has a USB dongle. I uses other wireless logitech mices on GNU/Linux and had no issue using the dongle. I will try to test my Lift on a Linux machine using the dongle and let you know because it would be weird if not working.
I can see a future where big YouTube conten creators taking some independance and start monetizing a peertube instance with a real infrastructure and not just a cheap VPS. Maybe I am utopist.
You’re right I was certain it was doing both editing and managment but my memory played me

Well, with Kiwix I was able to download the whole english wikipedia with mid-res pictures on my 128GB USB Drive. I think the 600TB you’re talking about includes videos and high-res pictures.
Or maybe Miraheze but it doesn’t sem federated either
Hosting a wiki isn’t that expensive it’s basically texts and some lightweight pictures. The whole english wikipedia is around 109GB of data.

Algorithmes aren’t inherently bad. The fact that they are opaque blackbox imposed to you by the plateforms so you get addicted is why they are bad. The day we have the choice between multiple client-side transparent algos it will be better.
You simply don’t get the usecase. I don’t want Pinterest to show me stuff that I’m into. I want it to show me similar pictures to build coherant yet creative moodboards.
CryptPad or Collabora Office


The Steam Frame will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon arm CPU with Full SteamOS support, so I guess if Valve goes for it it’s good enough and will improve faster.
But I’ve never installed any Linux distro on an arm device myself.
