Just a guy not on Reddit

SJWs

Ah yes REDDIT. The website that famously does not have any safe spaces for conservatives.

requires a fair bit of post-installation configuration

This is crazy to me because of all the distros I've tested over the years Fedora Kinote is by FAR the one I've had to do the least amount of tweaking with. It's almost boring how "just works" it is. It's honestly changed my perspective of what a distro can be.

I do 4x or 1 month whichever comes first. Unless I notice it's some really hard to come by thing and I may leave it up for a year or more.

As others have said it's much easier to just go to Anna's and grab an open copy. You can also check your library's website (it will have DRM but is easier to remove).

I know this is the piracy community but when it comes to books I always check the author's personal website first. Sometimes they sell copies with no/simple DRM and the money goes to them.

It's ridiculous. Yuzu is open source too so it's not like they can stop someone from forking it tomorrow anyway.

He's not going to "get rid of it", he's going to corrupt it. Give spectrum to the biggest donors, reverse net neutrality, get rid of antitrust, revoke broadcast licenses of anyone who criticizes him.

I'm surprised to hear you don't like Fedora. I recently tried Kinoite and I wish I'd discovered it sooner. I've never had a Linux distro that felt so detail-oriented and complete. I'd be curious to hear your reasoning!

NGINX Proxy Manager and DuckDNS.

Get DuckDNS set up first.

Then go to DuckDNS.org and register a domain.

Then go into NGINX proxy manager.

It's pretty straightforward, click "add proxy host", then type the domain from duckdns (I like to do a different subdomain for each service, ie: calibre.mydomain.duckdns.org, homeassistant.mydomain.duckdns.org, etc.) and point it at your container with the service you want to access remotely.

You'll want to enable let's encrypt. But other than that the defaults should be fine.

Someone at Google could hear what a device's microphone is picking up at all times?

It probably won’t make it to court because the devs cant afford it. Nintendo likely wouldn't win, it is just bullying them into shutting down.

Windows has an entirely different set of objectives.

I never thought of it this way. My first reaction was "What do you mean 'different objectives', they're both operating systems!" But Windows is an operating system with the objective of making profit for Microsoft. Linux is an operating system with the goal of... being an operating system.

It really puts it in perspective. Windows (and Mac) can and will only use useful to the consumer up to a point.

Windows 11 no longer "just working" is what made me finally take Linux seriously as an option and I am so glad I did.

I genuinely think it is ready for prime time. As I said elsewhere the concept of immutable distros is a game changer for those of us who like to customize but hate the command line

LOL this is me. Bonus points for the immuteable versions. The first truly desktop linux that "just works" and dare I say improves over windows in basically every way.

It's not a RAM problem lmao it rarely crashed on Windows and it's not crashed with Fedora either.

Ignore everyone here saying fix Ubuntu and try Fedora Kinoite (or Silverblue). Bazzite is probably great too if you are gaming but I haven't tried it.

I finally tried Fedora Kinoite after years of Ubuntu (and related distros) and I genuinely wish I had tried it sooner. Everything just works. I cannot reccomend it enough. It's what I always wanted Linux to be.

Understood (I think) so just to be clear, you are saying Google has the power to collet:

  • All signal Messages
  • Device Location at all times
  • Anything displayed on the screen
  • Audio around device (microphone) at all times
  • All files on the device

Is that accurate?

I wanted to but everyone on Lemmy told me I was an idiot for wanting a feature Mac and Windows have had for a decade (decrypt on login) .

But seriously it's just not there on Linux yet. Either you encrypt and have two passwords, or give up convenience features like biometrics. Anything sensitive lives somewhere else.
