I don't give a flying fig who you have relationships with, what you do in your bedroom or what you do in your church, as long as you don't expect me or anyone else to think, do or believe as you do.
I used to say that all my cultural references are 20+ years old, but that is now out of date. All my cultural references are from the previous century.

And yet, I can't read a book that Internet Archive actually owns a copy of.

I have been very happy using KDE for at least 5 years now (maybe more, time is flying for me).
I am very much looking forward to the release of 6!

Yes, content providers make money on YouTube, but considering that Google makes more than then they do as a percentage certainly begs for some other solution.
This is a fantastic project and I wish you the best of luck with it and hope you have lots of attendees.
I do think there is a business opportunity (or perhaps a charitable one) of refurbishing/reselling older machines by doing just what your seminars are doing, but installing Linux and then selling the machine. Many people could use a machine that costs less than say, $200, but is still very functional for everyday usage.
Now that is driving me crazy, it looks so familiar, but I just can't place it.👿
Found it!
It's Librewolf, a Firefox fork.

I am sort of in a content slump right now. The YouTube adblocker blocker has me watching much less and noticing the content actually kinda sucks.
Most news sites are either paywalled or adblocked blocked or so stuffed with ads it's unreadable.
Even my library app doesn't have books newer than like 2019.
This DRM shit totally sucks.
Tik says she will do it.
This weekend I will be re-installing -1.
Turning in my hero badge. 😉

Invidious is working for me.
Unfortunately my work (school district) blocks it.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Piped is not blocked on my school/work wifi and looks better than invidious.
LibRedirect is Awesome!
@Fosheze
I use PiHole at home for sytem wide blocking and Vivaldi as my main browser.
I get the adblocker blocker on my main google account, but I have a couple of others for hobbies and I have not seen the blocker there.
@thehatfox @hal_5700X
There is an extension for Chrome based browsers that does the same.
I would agree with with many of the issues you have experienced here. Nothing personal, but I am kinda glad, I thought I was going crazy and was the only one having these issues.
Totally agree on the shutdown, etc.
Biggest thing that is broken for me is simple window management. If I have two apps on a desktop, clicking on the the bottom one doesn't raise it to the top. If I open a context menu (for example, right clicking on a link in the browser) the menu opens UNDER the browser.
On my machine, 6 is not ready for prime time. And I have no idea how to categorize things to try and report the bugs. Could be Wayland issues, but I can't figure out how to start a Plasma 6 session in X11 to see if the problems go away. Maybe my window issues are a result of using Activities (which apparently no one else does) but I don't want to shut all that down.
I've decided to (re-)install Kubuntu to go back to 5.27 and hopefully come back when 6 is actually ready.

It would be nice if RSS feeds were easier to discover. I think people feel that no one uses them anymore and doesn't bother to put it front and center or to make lists of good feeds to follow.
@H3L1X
That looks good 😃
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social
Can't make the chat, but really looking forward to the P6 release day. Been using Neon for a couple of years now (Kubuntu before that) and couldn't be more pleased!
Can't blame me for trying 😉
@tubaruco
Perhaps, but finding one is a bit of pain in the ass. And since you have to register for each one separately, if they later block that on...meh
What gets blocked is random and weird...today it was an open source educational resources site.
Go figure.
Only side to side...I get an arrow in the corner, but the windows will not resize diagonally. Oddly it is the KDE apps (Settings, KDenlive) that don't work. Vivaldi resizes fine.
Agreed, it is the main reason I am not a FF user.
thanks for using Leebra!
go to feed...
