a custom distro

…or just a pre-exsting one. Heck, they should just make it a point to support open source development.

Sorry, they have a separate one for Lemmy! Got my wires crossed.

There are two separate apps for Mastodon and Friendica though, right? Or did I misremember?

You said it yourself — you’re new to self hosting, and CasaOS fits what you want to host. As a starting point for getting rid of hosted services, go with that for a start.

Sure, you won’t immediately be getting your hands dirty mucking about with dockers and stuff, but you will have your working home server. For learning and experimentation, I second @Scipitie@lemmy.dbzer0.com’s plan B — use another machine to test building the same setup on a base Linux system.

If you’re like me you probably have an old laptop lying around that wouldn’t be great as an always up, day to day server, but as a testing environment to mess around with docker containers it should be fine?

I use Baïkal on a no-frills webhost. It’s been running for years without problems.

Plus the Android app on f-droid.

Who hurt you?

greybeards dunking on you because you’re not a “real” linuxer

Oh, right. I see.

androids can’t do base distro’s anymore?

I’ll be honest, I never tried. Seeing that there are projects working independently to bring Debian, Ubuntu, and Arch to Android, I’d guess no? Plus I know you can run any distro in an emulator within Android systems, but that feels more like a curiosity.

So, 15 years later we’re worse off than then? Argh.

Out of curiosity, was it “just” a plain Debian system, or did it support touch screen and phone service?

a lot of them have anime or furry stuff as their wallpaper or profile picture, but they use linux

What you’re experiencing is sonder.

This message doesn’t say anything about the validity of your license, though. Or am I missing something?

I’m not up to date on Windows versions, but saying Win 11 has reached end of service is… unexpected?

Have a downvote for the complete lack of context. What is this, why is it interesting to you?

All I see here is a lowest effort share of something that should probably just have been added to your personal reading list 🤷

I suspect that they have ulterior motives

Rather than guessing at the motives of others, let’s remember Hanlon’s razor.

Just any year, I’m not unreasonable 😂

I’m just really excited by this major version, and am impatient to get my hands on the final release…

Yeah, fingers crossed for an actual release before New Year, though.

Exactly.

I don’t have figures on how many people actually use GIMP, but I’m guessing a lot more than the number of people griping about its usability online.

So close…! 😂

Exciting! Hoping the RC process is short for this version 🤞🤞🤞

No, it’s only code and pixels 🙂
