Firefox browser, misskey as my SNS. On Android: Komikku (a tachiyomi fork), element X matrix client; on my desktop: rnote for note taking, fractal matrix client.

“Microsoft ❤️ Linux”

Not terribly fond of their icon as well. Personally, I would be willing to look past the name if they had a better icon.

I tried to install F41 from a Bootable drive today but failed. The error message was totally different but it was an efi issue.

I had maybe a similar issue today, from fedora 41 workstation (gnome).

what Mozilla is really afraid of is losing the over inflated bonus the execs get paid.

It really isn’t, at least in my experience

works in my machine is an opinion not an argument. Different people have different expectations and experiences.

That vtuber couple are entertaining.

I have a Dell. Linux support is pretty amazing. But I wouldn’t recommend using blender unless it’s a Dell XPS.

oh my, I didn’t see that coming. That was such a shock.

There is Komikku for linux though it’s kinda limited to sources it supports. Komga is a nice self hosted option with support for Mihon and all the tachiyomi forks for android. There is a tachiyomi fork called Komikku (different from the linux app) that I like.

wanted to bring matters up anyway in case it still would be considered useful.

Honestly, I think the issue is still relevant because many users coming to fedi, don’t get exposed to this kind of discussion. I wasn’t. I was bored with mastodon so looked around and found firefish. But my instance was shutting down. So I decided to just use the source of all the *key software, misskey and went to sign up for misskey.io but couldn’t. I had to search a lot to finally figure out the situation. Later, I joined a smaller instance, instead of the flagship instance. My server admin is amazing. They run an instance that also follows US specific laws as well despite being primarily Japanese server because there are a few english users.

What I learned all of these is that, mastodon is not fedi, there are a lot of software, look around before you settle down. And instances with small number of users form a better community. So, you don’t have to choose the largest instance out there.

• I am not using misskey because I like loli stuff. I should’ve worded it better. I love my instance because our admin runs a great server.

Start with Gentoo or Arch

I wouldn’t recommend arch to general users. I consider myself a general linux user, and figuring out Arch, even after the installation hurdle, wasn’t easy for me.

is like fixing windows when it doesn’t

I don’t think Arch really makes that easy. Although, I guess archwiki is pretty great. Even arch forum helped me a lot with respect to other disto.

But, are most of the users getting this Bluetooth problem? Has it occurred to you that that maybe this could be a you problem rather than a general user problem?

I am especially sad because firefish was the first fedi project that I donated to. A lot of people had problems with firefish, but the server I was on was absolutely amazing. Unfortunately, they server maintainers foresaw the demise of the software and decided to shut down early this year, on March.

I think that was specifically for misskey.io because some western users were breaking some sort of law. I never quite figured out the details. Misskey.io still doesn’t let any IP from outside the China-Japan-Korea circle sign up. But there are some instances, that do, and some English language instances there as well.

Also, misskey and the Japanese side of fedi, tend to tolerate “loli” content to a degree that other side doesn’t. My main account is on a misskey server and I love it.

Have you checked out Tangerine UI
https://github.com/nileane/TangerineUI-for-Mastodon

I don’t know who wrote this book, but he is a genius.

I dig that fedi origami logo.

Someone pointed out to me how the asterism symbol (the variant the website used) looks like four cat butthole. I can never unsee that.
