            1. A newcomer probably doesn’t even know what X11 and Wayland are, let alone the differences between the two.

            2. Linux Mint has planned experimental wayland support for Christmas 2023.

        Nice enjoy amego. Mint was my second choice. Great choice of distro BTW very easy to use make sure to install flatpaks and neofetch sadly I went back to windows my pc hardware has poor driver support on Linux maybe eventually once I’ve upgraded my gpu then I’ll return to my sacred Linux mint

        Based! Now you’ll have to change your username too, in Linux our programs don’t have the .exe extension :)

        Unfortunately not, that’s why lemmy never took off. All the people that came here from reddit slowly left once they realized you have to be a FOSS/Socialist/anti-car/vegan. Only the ones that matched at least one of those really stuck around.

          ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ At least there is a lot less brain dead shit all over the front page without a bunch of normal people up in this removed

            I mean I would prefer the “brain dead shit” in my opinionmost of the shit I see here is just removed and moaning or copious amounts of nfsw. No cute puppy pictures. No wholesome memes. No actually funny shitposts. Mostly removed and moaning,“demanding a violent revolution” lots of tankies here nfsw and heavily opionated extremely unfunny in my opinion comedy is subjective i dont find these funny but you may domemes. All this hostility is almost certainly affecting lemmys growth heck only reason I’m here is because of lemmy shitposts and the many other nicher communities I like

            I mean kinda? There’s still some brain dead shit and I honestly think the reading comprehension of the average commenter is lower than reddit.

              I like the fact that it’s different brain-dead from Reddit. Then I feel there is balance: dead brains on both sides.

              Of course sometimes you spot the living among the dead, but if I want genuine sense I’m a big fan of [i]rl.
