Filesystem Table.

It’s a shortening. Not a shortening of File Systemtable though.

I’ve just cancelled my Medium subscription. I was finding myself going there less and less. So many articles saying the same thing in various levels of broken English.

I’m an avid Void user, so I get the value of linux. But I cringe every time I see a comment like this. The OP has asked a specific question about a specific version of a specific OS. Someone asking about an OS should not be considered an invitation to tell them about another.

Fascinating! Thank you all for the answers! I got an F in French at high school, which might explain why I hadn’t made the connection.

The challenge is that these days a phone is rarely used for calls or texts, but used with apps like WhatsApp or Teams or Slack or your mobile banking app, or things like that. And so there would need to be a critical mass of these apps to get me to switch.

Because I don’t want my Firefox window overlapping my Vim window.

As soon as I made the decision to throw away all my socks and go to the shop and buy 14 pairs of the same grey socks, my life became infinitely less stressful.

I think it gives everyone the same list of 29, but it’s the order that’s important. Gentoo came back as my top. I use Void which came back as 4th in my list.

I love that we have this level of engagement. Well done team! If I could help out in some way, I would. But I’m but a lowly SQL/Python dev.

Keep up the great work

Sounds like it would be worth looking at the asyncio package.

Not Gentoo based, but have you considered having a play with Void? It’s a stable rolling release, bare bones with it’s own init. Very customisable. I’m using it as my daily driver outside work use (Linux isn’t allowed), and not having any problems, while still getting to tinker.

Hadn’t heard of it, but now I’m interested to give it a try.

Cool, thank you all!

Also, any app recommendations?

While I think we can agree it’s not a mass exodus, and as a percentage it’s fractional, I would be really curious on the relative percentage of mods and higher activity users.

I wouldn’t be surprised if these were proportionally higher than the total percentage as they would be more attuned to what was happening.

Give it a go, but have patience. Don’t start during a particularly busy time at work, and be prepared to switch out your keyboard for a full sized one for 30 minutes when you get frustrated.

If you’re going directly from 104 keys, it’s going to be a big change. It will take time to build the muscle memory. But good luck!
