what caused you to get into Linux? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] nixchick@lemmy.ml 9 points 7 months ago

Lack of money, I couldn't afford to pay for a Windows license. After discovering how to install Linux more than 25 years ago, I became eager to learn it and never looked back.

workspaces like vivaldi? in c/firefox@lemmy.ml
[–] nixchick@lemmy.ml 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It is really hard to replicate Vivaldi's workspace or stacked tab features in Firefox. I know some have had good luck with replicating the stacked tabs with extensions I personally don't think it's the same. Floorp tries to implement workspaces but it's implementations is lacking. I can't remember if Pulse browser has this feature or not. Good luck.

What do you use Best Buy/ Big Box Electromics Store for? (lemmy.ml)
 

What purposes do you use Best Buy/Big Box electronic stores? Do you try items before you buy them in-person or online? Do you shop in-store for products? Are you a purely online shopper? I make an effort to patronize small companies, but when it comes to electronics, I frequently buy reconditioned computers and other items from the Best Buy outlet since my experiences there have been positive. I used to regularly order from Tiger Direct, but unfortunately, it is no longer open for business.

Slack Is Basically Facebook Now (www.theatlantic.com)
 

The article's title covers everything. Slack simply serves as a form of social media for the office that reduces employee productivity.

I am looking for some good tech sites that have longer articles and indepth reviews. Preferably without an obvious biased towards a particular company or brand. edit: I should have clarified what to was looking for. I would like to compile a list of lesser-known but useful websites so that I can stay current on tech news without having to deal with the "fluff" that some of these sites now contain or the never-ending stream of anything remotely technological that you'd receive at the Verge, Ars Technica, etc.
