15 years Windows -> dualboot everything -> Ubuntu -> Fedora -> Ubuntu -> opensuse -> arch -> popOS -> arch -> fedora -> arch -> -> popOS -> arch -> nixos

I’m sure there’s a ton more hopping around in the middle that I can’t remember, but this is a good summary.

Hyprland is my favorite tilling manager for Wayland. Its really easy to customize or find dotfiles. I have some if you want them.

If you want something that just works, popos-shell gnome plugin

I meant for neofetch lol

Sometimes I feel like farming would be better than DevOps.

Whats a good alternative?

I use both. I have a self hosted docker compose instance of mailcow, which alerts me when an update is available.

I also use protonmail as well.

Self hosting was a pain in the ass to get working, but I’ve had no issues with it once up. I tossed it behind a reverse proxy to keep it from directly touching the internet.

It’s a mess, but people are playing the new COD and that’s a mess too. Maybe it’s because I’ve only been playing for 8 months, but I find it super enjoyable.

I had those, but it’s rare for me. When I first started I phased into a corsair and decided to do a character reset and have had very little issues since. That and I’ve heard newer hardware helps as well.

For me this is true, I’ve been playing since 3.18 and haven’t had many bugs. Cyberpunk and Halo had more bugs.

I mean what game has been around with active development for 15 years? Most games development stop at 5sh. I paid $45 8 months ago with no reason to spend more.

While 15 years is stupid, at least it’s a fun game. So I’ll continue to enjoy it while not spending anymore money on it.

It seems a lot of people haven’t played it. It’s quite playable and has less bugs than the average new AAA game.

It’s currently got 4 planets, each with 3 or more moons, and many stations that can be visited. 6+ game loops and around 30 flyable ships.

Yeah people spend way too much real money on it, but 90% of the fly read ships are purchasable in the game. At least give the damn game a shot before you shit on it. The community is super nice and willing to help new comers.

Edit: Not sure why everyone is so upset. This is my experience and every argument I’ve seen against sc is about bugs or spending real money on ships. Let people enjoy the games they want without getting so mad cause someone likes a game you don’t.

Fedoras flavor with KDE. Fedora never caused an issue for me.

I just moved from Nano to Helix and love it. I added nnn and Zellij as well it works wonderful.

Tried Doom Emacs but Helix had a smaller learning curve it felt.

Just moved from Endeavor to NixOS. It’s a huge learning curve and takes a while to build your config or flakes, but damn does it feels nice to just roll back if you mess up over re-installing.

Not sure the popularity, but here’s what are essential to me:

AnySoftKeyboard - a custom keyboard that supports layouts like workman/colemak

Simple Gallery - Fantastic gallery app

Mule - Secure version of Firefox

OneTracker - simple bullshit free parcel tracker

Xplore - dual pane file manager, been using it for over 10 years. Can’t go back to regular ones

Yubico Authenticator - Used to get OTPs off my Yubikey.

I have more essential apps, but they’d fall close or in popular.

I use Signal, Element (Matrix), built in SMS with grapheneOS, and I self host MatterMost.

I tried Threema, but getting people to move was more difficult than Signal

Bought Star Citizen and my god is it really good. Initially I assumed it wouldn’t due to everything I read but man those articles are usually out the date. The recent update added a lot and seemed to have fixed a lot. There are still quite a few bugs, but most you run into will not prevent you from playing the game.

Sway or GNOME (Wayland) with Pop shell extension.

It seems like it would be calming. Though I feel the tub gets a bit gross for this.

Any chair recommendations for tubs? What about shower heads that work best to not drown you?
