Any recommendations on books? Back then I thought the Harry Potter books (well, the 3 that I've read) where neat and I'd like to read something similar again :D

(TYSM for the recommendations! Sorry I didn't reply to anyone)

For me, it was the docs and seemingly being more straightforward. Nix always seemed like something I'll never understand because of it's many ways to do things while having hard to follow docs at times, but guix made sense to me. Nix obviously has it's clear upsides over guix - both are good!

Helix: Barely needs a config. But they are also pretty close to done with a plug-in system for the stuff that isn't implemented by default :D

I honestly don't get the adwaita hate. These apps try to be simple and functional. This is the software for normal people who just want things to work. I used to care about theming my desktop a lot, but I'd rather have apps where form follows function (is that how you use that phrase?)

And there are projects that do bring almost enough theming to adwaita ("almost" = I saw 1 issue for me - rewaita is still pretty amazing): https://github.com/SwordPuffin/Rewaita

I've never used any suckless software, but it kind of sucks seeing them on here. I liked the Idea of their software philosophy, even if it wasn't for me.

(Edit: I forgot a word in that sentence lol)

I'm using lineage without micro-g, so google services aren't there, which sometimes causes issues (in-app maps, games), but I like how minimal it feels. (And it's an exercise for me to avoid google haha)

My non-tech friend uses /e/ and it works for him as expected. I like it as a middle ground for people who just want things to work - he really doesn't want to tinker and as his technical support I have yet to help him. That said, I've heard mediocre things (sorry, forgot specifics) about the company...

There is lineage with micro-g, and it's probably good! Probably would fix my issues!

(Er meine Fake-Accounts bei Telegramm zum Informationserhalt)

  1. Was ist der Unterschied zwischen iodeOS und lineageOS? Iode ist doch von lineage geforked - gibt es da Sachen die iode bedeutsam besser macht?
  2. Ich hab gute Sachen über SimleX gehört, aber Signal wird weitaus breiter benutzt und sollte genügen, oder?

Der Flugmodus ist eine gute Idee! Ich bin kein Security-Experte: Ich wollte so nur erfragen ob&wo ich falsch liege.

Thats very fair! Similarly, I looked at r/unixporn and wanted whatever they have. I gotta admit - that WAS a motivation for me hahaha

Other DEs or gui frameworks support proper theming, adwaita has it's reasons to ignore it. I'd love to see/hear about cool things you can do with qt theming or whatever, but whenever I got theming related things on my screen, it's about how adwaita/gnome sucks and will kill your childlike wonder

If you care about the app being open source, I've used Energized: https://f-droid.org/...

Worked well enough for me, but my needs are low 👍

Idk I gave it to my sister and she had 0 complaints. I don't think it's perfect, but a sane default choice.

Iirc, gnome also got a million from the Sovereign Tech Fund a while back (I think it was them + that amount of money, don't quote me on this).

Imo: both are good and deserve it. They sometimes have different ways of thinking and goals, but both are usible for everyone - even for non-techies.

While I'm a gnome fanboy, it's really cool to see financial support for good desktops!
