The first time we used it was 7th or 8th grade and we kept using it from then on. How can you even forget?

Just add a shortcut to crash plasma shell, works consistently. /s

Touchpad gestures are only supported on Wayland. For both Gnome and KDE Plasma.

Limitless_screaming , 11 months ago to Linux in Linux has nearly half of the desktop OS Linux market

Most people are not just happy because OSes that use the linux kernel now account for 3% of desktop Oses, but because presumably 3 percent of desktop users are using an OS that gives them choice and freedom. Which as the article mentioned isn't a trait of ChromeOS, the less popular ChromiumOS on the other hand, I would happily consider Linux as having 7% of desktop users out there if ChromiumOS had that 4%.

Limitless_screaming , 11 months ago to Linux in [Question] Why does everyone seem to dislike containerized packages?

That's not what I am asking about; fragmentation is another separate problem. What I am asking is why would you be against the idea of flatpak, if you use snaps, then you're with the idea of flatpak (to some extent).

Limitless_screaming , 11 months ago to Linux in [Question] Why does everyone seem to dislike containerized packages?

Why should the GUI application be a system package? Why shouldn't we have the good permission system that Android has? Why is the distro packaging every piece of software out there a good thing? Why is a couple of packages using more space a big deal to you?

I never can understand those people who are just against the idea of flatpaks. On the other hand, I can see why you'd be against it for the state in which it is right now.

Limitless_screaming , 11 months ago to Linux in While NixOS looks interesting, it seems like a security flaw to store the functions of the OS in a single file. Your thoughts?

A living proof how typing a full, punctuated sentence and then pressing enter without reading the warning prompt after getting an error from the GUI store can be dangerous. So don't do drugs kids.

Limitless_screaming , 11 months ago to Linux in A distro and desktop environment recommendation for an old laptop (Read all of it, please.)

WM means Window Manager, it mostly just manages window positions, tiling, decoration, and other Window related things. WMs usually need more configuration than DEs (Desktop Environments), some don't have default panels, widgets, etc. So you have to configure those yourself.

That allows them to be more customizable and lighter, but makes them a little harder to configure.

If you really need a DE then XFCE is your best choice, otherwise try out IceWM; it's the WM used by Antix Linux, so you know it's gonna be light.

Both XFCE and IceWM are know for customization, and both of them aren't the prettiest out of the box.

Limitless_screaming , 11 months ago to Linux in Nobara Gnome is just a terrible experience.

I don't really understand why you find chrooting hard or what's wrong with the tutorials you found. Can you point out which step of it is difficult. this is the first tutorial I get for Manjaro, is there something missing or left ambiguous?

I am waiting for my data, so I can request it's deletion.

Limitless_screaming , 1 year ago to RedditMigration in Random Account Suspension

Darn, I promoted Lemmy and KBin on Reddit, Voted for mods to continue the protest, encouraged people to request their data from Reddit, and linked my KBin in my bio before completely leaving the platform.

I still haven't gotten the message of honor :(

Limitless_screaming , 1 year ago to RedditMigration in Minecraft is leaving Reddit

I don't even care about the API prices and I used to use the official Reddit mobile app before migrating.

I've been looking for an open source Reddit like platform since the Twitter drama started and people started migrating to Mastodon, but there wasn't much content on them, until now, so I jumped on the band wagon.
