I'm going to risk the down votes. Stay away from atomic distros and you should be OK. Yes, they are less likely to break by messing around, but also infinitely harder to set exactly to your liking.

Looking at it from that standpoint, you're onto something on that as well.

Synaptic is a new Linux user's worst enemy. Makes it too easy to just break stuff.

  • changing apps for no other reason than “it hasn’t been updated for a year”

That's the only part I disagree with. Software not updated in a long time can easily become a risk.

Everything else though, spot in.

5 dollars for 300 searches per month? Dafuk? And to top it up, need an actual account with email. Gets acquired in a couple of years, and all the data they gather on you gets sold. You'd be better off staying with Google.

No widget. You can make it into a web app though.

"Overwhelming", that's the word I was looking for to define KDE. Thank you.

I'm really looking forward to the release version of Cosmic. Used to be a fan of Gnome-based Cosmic on PopOS, but Pop just kept on "popping" so I moved to Fedora Workstation. I have never looked back.

Gnome, be it PC or Laptop. It just remains out of my way with it's minimalism. Tried KDE for a while, and I seriously can't stand it, personally.

Not 100% in agreement with some of her videos, but I believe this one is spot on, and probably easier to understand by regular folk.

I set up a Raspberry Pi 3 with AdguardHome for a friend of mine, and told him to disconnect everything at home and try to watch anything on his phone, being the only device using his home's internet.

He just sent me this, and now he's ready to #degoogle 🤣🤣🤣

He says there were hundreds in less than 5 minutes.

I've looked under my bed, in our pantry,and even went under the deck, nothing. Please help me find a FOSS android keyboard in which I can have the numbers to the right of the keyboard, like a computer keyboard keypad, even better if it has gifs.. The only android keyboard I know about that has that option is Swiftkey. Being a Microsoft app, you can understand why I'm not willing to use it anymore. AnySoftKeyboard and Florisboard don't have the option,at least I could not find it.
