Ah yes, this year is definitely the year of the Linux desktop. For real this time!

How is this going to end?

Google blocks access to it’s services for Firefox altogether? Maybe even ban it from the Play Store? That would finally give me a real incentive to install some CFW.

RMS approves

I use Kubuntu in mostly default configuration. Am I special or a normie?

Is it an unofficial reddit client? How are they getting around the API prices? Webscraping?

I tried only Jerboa and that’s what I stuck with. It loads fast and has every feature I want. Compare that to the official Reddit app, which is a slog on even high end devices. Seriously, what are they doing that it loads SO SLOW?

I was starting to think I was using LLMS wrong but you perfectly summarized my situation.

That’s why I kinda don’t like Python and JavaScript anymore. Every time I want types for a library it’s gonna take me time to get it working. For every serious project I do, I use a strongly typed language.

Vorraussetzung ist, dass der Gesprächspartner Beweise anerkennt und das tun sie oft nicht.

Stellt euch vor ihr müsst so dringend zur Arbeit um Wert für euren Arbeitgeber zu schöpfen, dass ihr dafür jemanden überfahren würdet, statt zu spät zu kommen.

Can corporations fuck it up if they want to? Couldn’t we just migrate to a new instance and not federate? Or not federate with them from the beginning?

Thanks!

I appreciate all the terminal-only solutions but as you said: having a visual debugger is nice. I can certainly get around the terminal but for my daily programming work, I use an almost unmodified vscode. I know electron is bloat but I’ve been using it for so long, I don’t feel like switching anymore.

Tbh thats part of the reason I like to take many small amounts and spread them out over the year instead of few big chunks. This probably changes once you have kids I guess.

I tried to download a repository as a zip file but you can’t do that in code commit. That’s a problem in a big corp environment, where getting your local git credentials to work with codecommit is actually a very big hassle.

The difference is that this is an open source community driven effort. Reddit is a for profit business. On that basis, I give Lemmy a lot more leeway when it comes to bugs. Reddit just turned into a slog over the last few years BECAUSE they try to monetize it to death.

I only joined Lemmy yesterday and I plan on using both for now but this site and app are already a so much better experience without ads and everything loads lightning fast. And then I open reddit and I have to look at the spinning circle everytime I click on something. For some reason, it’s even worse on desktop. That shit feels so unresponsive.

I think this is how most people start but you gotta start somewhere right? This site helped me a lot: https://explainshell.com
