“it’s weird and should be more stigmatized” that seems to be making a moral claim right? I guess you never explicitly said that it’s because it’s weird that it should be stigmatized, but it certainly seemed to be structured like that.

And ah maybe I misunderstood, what you were saying just sounds like how a lot of ppl talk about it on the vegan forums I used to regular, lmao.

I don’t think “it’s weird therefore bad” is a good argument. If you’re gonna argue for veganism (which I don’t have a problem work doing!) I think there are way, way better reasons.

I’m curious to know what arch-based distro you’re talking about?

Those examples are dumb, but also don’t tell people what to do holy shit it’s just as infuriating as people who insist everyone needs to include GNU.

I think that’s ridiculous. I vastly prefer FOSS and so I won’t use this, but clearly professional software being ported to Linux is a big deal for Linux and its userbase.

Should we ban discussion about any distro that’s not certified by the FSF? Should we ban news about proprietary Nvidia drivers?

I use a Lemur Pro, and I’d recommend it for just about anyone who doesn’t want to game haha. It just has Intel integrated graphics, and while it runs Minecraft perfectly well, that’s about as much as you can push it.

The battery life on there is easily upwards of 10-12 hours being used lightly for some web browsing, word processing, etc. etc… That’s with Pop!_OS at least, which seems to be pretty power efficient.

I put QubesOS on there too and it only gets 4-5 max, but that’s definitely just a Qubes thing and not the hardware’s fault.

Am I the only one here who doesn’t see the big deal? Op probably had to glance at their phone for like 2 seconds. If you’re going straight with no traffic I think that’s an extremely common thing to do once and a while, even to just switch music or whatever.

Blink has quite a few security benefits over Gecko, and while Firefox is plenty fast, Chromium is faster. I’m very much a Firefox gal, but there are plenty of reasons to use Chromium.

Wanting to restrict the rights of minorites isn’t a valid position. It’s vile and worthy of hatred.

Hell yea! I’ve used PopOS for a couple years now and it’s pretty fantastic. Being able to enable/disable it on the fly is super great, and you still have all the conveniences of a full DE.
