I’m old enough to remember when iPods first came out but somehow I didn’t realise podcast came from the word iPod. TIL!

Glad to have you here!

That’s awesome! Beginning your social media journey with the fediverse is great :)

Nice! How are you liking it so far?

I spend most of my time on Lemmy but when I’m on a desktop I’ll check reddit occasionally. I refuse to interact at all though

Exact same feeling for me

In the original post on GitHub it’s mentioned that it was a manual review

I don’t really think that’s fair. I agree with your suggestion that it should be a multiplatform DE rather than just its own distro but I think having polished and design opinionated distros is important. I know a few Mac guys who have become interested in Linux when they heard about ElementaryOS.

I get that a lot of people hate on GNOME too for being annoying to customise and being highly opinionated but I think that’s the key to getting the average person interested in Linux. The average person just wants their desktop to look nice out of the box and maybe offer a dark mode. Anything more than that gets too complicated.

Edit: and yeah having access to programs like the MS apps is important but it’s not like that has to come before having an appealing desktop

Like 50. I used to have a ridiculous amount of sunglasses I got given as free merch. Nowadays I just have a prescription pair of sunglasses I replace every few years

I can’t remember 9/11 and I’m almost 30 :)

I’m not really a zoomer but I’m also not really a millennial. (and definitely not any other generation)

I feel pretty much the same as when off of them but my anxiety isn’t nearly as crippling. There are some side effects like a dulling of emotions but to me it’s so worth it

Same

I thought it was dumb too but, to be honest, I kind of prefer using “main” now. It’s quicker to type lol
