bring back flash
There are really good reasons flash died. If you’re desperate for flash content, use ruffle.

No, but I’ll check them out. Thanks for the suggestion.
Behind the Bastards, Linux Lads, Linux Late Night, The Infinite Monkey Cage (when they do episodes), some spanish stuff for listening practice (mostly Hoy Hablamos), Hack-a-Day, Self-Hosted, and Cory Doctorow…
I usually go with Xfce.
I don’t hate windows, it just annoys me. I’ve run linux in a VM under windows for years and about 2 years ago it annoyed me enough (I think it was something about a patch breaking things badly enough that I had to restore the system) that I said ‘screw it’ and switched the arrangement to linux and the few windows programs I really wanted running in wine. I’ve been skipping back and forth between them since Yggdrasil was a thing, so it wasn’t like it was uncharted territory.
And after hearing some of win11’s BS, I’m glad I did.
You should definitely ask a bunch of random people on lemmy what to do instead of what the doctors say…
I feel like you’d probably enjoy wandering through the halfbakery…
No. I checked it out twice, looked around, and noped out. Haven’t been back since.
I don’t care what it’s called as long as it’s a decent distro and does what I need it to do.
This. I’ve never voted for ‘not the other guy’, but I will this time. Honestly, the democrats could run Vinny the Wino and I’d vote for him over Trump.
If you’re going to not use software because you don’t like a program with a similar name, I really don’t know what to tell you… 🤷♂️
Cheaper than what? Scrounged free parts?
Unless it’s all you have. Speaking as someone that’s at times been poor af, sometimes people just have to cobble up a frankensystem from whatever parts they can scrounge.
One of the things I love about linux is that it makes this reasonably possible.
Weechat. Terminal based, flexible scripting system using a handful of languages, still actively developed, and I can make it work the way I want it to work.
Don’t you have anything better to do than fill out this survey?
Phone: Nokia 5160 I think it was.
Computer: ZX-81
NurdRage for chemistry goodness.
Probably depends how you define things. Like, is Xubuntu Xubuntu or Ubuntu with Xfce included by default? How much change is necessary before it’s not “debian with added bits”?
I don’t. Modern computers have a LOT of resources. The whole ‘minimalist computing’ thing some people go on about is really odd to me. And I say that as someone who remembers when 16K was impressive. I can see it for restricted environments, where every byte counts, but not for desktops.
Vivaldi is pretty nice and was my main browser until the announcement about MV3, but Vivaldi isn’t going to support it beyond whenever google removes MV2 from the source (IIRC, Vivaldi folks expected it around June next year). But I saw the way the wind was blowing and decided to jump ship while I could still do it and take my own sweet time doing so. In retrospect, glad I did. Still miss some features like markdown notes and sidebar web pages, but it’s still better than being buried in ads.
