Late Stage Capitalism, Crony Capitalism, pretty much textbook.

Reddit 2.0…already migrating off this censorship.

You can use LASIM app (Windows/Mac/Linux) to migrate your profile and settings to another instance. Highly recommend.

I don’t trust any of these players, especially Adobe, who has always been king of the proprietary shitlords. If they are forming this “committee” or “alliance,” why aren’t there any open source players appointed?

Stop believing?

The man-child billionaire says he is not for censorship, while using the judicial system to censor.

And that class, is how crazy is passed down from generation to generation.

For the record, I do believe in extraterrestrial life forms and I do believe they are here and have been for some time. However, this whole dog and pony show and congressional committee is another CIA/Intelligence Community front to control the narrative, think project blue book 2.0. You have a couple of high ranking intelligent agency officials sitting behind the whistle-blowers with big smiles on. James Clapper is one, ex Obama guy and ex DNI (although they are never retired.) Big on the UFO disinformation front. You have the main whistle-blower telling you all this information, but can’t give out any data to back up his story…you just have to believe him (and the CIA.) You have to dig deep in the UFO information/disinformation happenings to understand what is going down here.

You are not alone. Many love its ‘restrained’ workflow, and DEs are subjective. It sounds like you are ready to move to KDE. KDE has a ‘Overview’ that mimics Gnome’s, so best of both worlds and the taskbar in KDE is actually functional. Don’t waste anymore time, make the switch to day. Operators are standing by. 🤣

KDE user so for my personal files I backup with both Kups and Bups (install both) and you get the choice of cloning type or only changed files with going back in time choices. Integrates into KDE taskbar/system settings.

For redundancy, I back up my main sync folder on the desktop to my laptop using Syncthing over my WiFi/network.

Yes, stick with Arch. Arch is not the issue if installed without the holding chambers Manjaro puts in place. Arch has a good installer on its own, but if you need a bit more, distros like EndeavourOS, Calam-Arch-Installer, ALCI (Arch Linux Calamares Installer,) and even Garuda are all fine options.

‘Classic canonical corporate move’…there I fixed it for you.

Red Hat is a corporation, putting dollars first. Not to mention Fedora is now starting to 'trample on user’s privacy with telemetry integration.’

Some are making the case that Fedora’s new telemetry integration isn’t like the bad telemetry like Google and others, it is ‘anonymised.’ Every corporation says this before they remove the username from the data collected and keep the unique user id. I don’t trust Red Hat…and now with this latest reveal, Fedora either. And privacy is all about trust.

This…all of it. I started with Arch using Manjaro, like so many do. There was a mass exodus that exploded, and the worst lot remained on the dev team. Beyond that, as you stated, they convice their users that holding back packages is for their benefit, when in reality, your system becomes unstable at times as a result, especially becoming out of sync with AUR. It is still one of the most popular Arch distros, and …well…I feel sorry for their uninformed users who believe it is a stable choice.

For information sake; Reasons Against Using Manjaro

No what you want is unstable Arch which you can freely do by changing the repos, but your user experience will be fraught with pain and issues. You can move to Debian and do the same by running their unstable branches, same results though, most likely a broken system.

Both will get you the newest releases.

Ooops, sorry, got my accronym companies mixed up, you are correct.

I always like wunderground for its accuracy and there use to be an app for it, but HP cut off the API. Now I use Prognoza on f-droid, seems OK.

Yes, they are Android derivities, but Android is basically Linux…runs off a linux kernel. If you want a pure linux system, I think there is a KDE platform for phones and Ubuntu (I think) but you can’t run regular Android Apps, do banking, etc. You are more open source, but limited in certain areas.

Yeah, I use ‘Keepass2Android Password Safe’ and I think there is one in F-droid (I haven’t tried it) called 'Keepass2Android Offline.

Lovely pic. Brings back lots of memories. I use to live there, loved it. Got out before…well, the rich tech moguls flew in like locust and ruined what once was.

This world is getting scarier by the day. Sad to watch our freedoms being taken in realtime, and so quickly. Digital currency is the real key. They will shut our money off unless we comply.
