if you run lineage or graphene on a pixel 6 or 7, what's your experience?

thinking about paying $500 for a pixel 6 to nuke it and install either lineage or graphene. Main reasons: security, I want to degoogle, hate bloatware, I want complete freedom to choose what apps I want on my device, smartphones are notoriously known for their short support cycles (to me 4 years is not enough)....

Why are are some posts called "Title"?

I haven’t spent long on Lemmy, but I see a lot of posts with their title literally being “Title”. Is it meant to be a joke? Is it because the title would otherwise be a quote ripped from the image/post itself, and the posters don’t want their fellow Lemmites to get bored from reading the same bit of text twice? Reason...

Help getting Ubuntu with KDE to sleep

My PC is running Ubuntu 22.04, with KDE Plasma 5.24. When I select Sleep from the Application Launcher, it always starts t go to sleep, but then it seems like a 50-50 chance that it will stay asleep.

How do some animals (or at least humans) manage to generate more force than their own muscles are rated to handle?

Is it possible to export that schedule to a Mint desktop background? That way I could see, at a glance, a graphical representation of my day whenever I boot up my PC....

Need a new distro(or help with fedora

So I have a new installation of fedora, which I reinstalled because gdm would freeze and prevent me from logging in and using my computer. I then noticed the same problem on the new installation. I noticed that using an older kernel worked, but system upgrades will break gdm again. I don’t want to have to never update my...

What is a gender neutral replacement for man, guys, buddy, etc?

So I’ve realized that in conversations I’ll use traditional terms for men as general terms for all genders, both singularly and for groups. I always mean it well, but I’ve been thinking that it’s not as inclusive to women/trans people....

How come I get different app versions when I load f-droid from my desktop compared to loading the f-droid client (app) on my phone?

desktop shows all available versions, including the newest ones. This is not always the case when I load the f-droid app on my phone. If I check the f-droid website, results are the same as using the desktop.
