Ephera , to linux in What's that one feature you liked so much while distrohopping that you want it by default in all distros?

BTRFS snapshots like openSUSE and now also Fedora has it. I don’t want to use a distro without them anymore. Unfortunately, configuring them yourself is a bit more involved than just installing a package…

I have a bit of everything at home. A windows PC, a mac laptop, a couple of linux boxes to run media servers etc

knfrmity , to asklemmy in Why you don't use linux?

I do for all my machines except the daily driver and at work.

I want to switch over my main system to Linux but I’m putting it off because I feel like I need a full day or two to just transfer simple things like browser info, save games, find utility apps, etc. Plus a bunch of games that I like playing still don’t work on Linux. I also haven’t looked into how to attempt to play “unlicensed” games on Linux yet.

On Android, it’s a bit complicated but you if you are experienced you can use termux and yt-dlp.

You can use yt-dlp from a desktop too.

For youtube on android you can use newpipe. It allows streaming as well as downloading.

Closer interoperability would likely be a net positive. Since there is an impedance mismatch here, taking the first sentence seems like a reasonable way to address it. As others mentioned, users can intentionally write the first sentence as a title when posting. Since the workaround would be configurable per instance/community I don’t think low quality titles are too much of a concern.

Horrible site re-designs and soft-locking out mobile web-browsers with their nag-popups to install their spyware app. No, your site is not “better in the app” >:(

It’s definitely better in third-party reddit apps though.

ttmrichter , to programming in International auxiliary languages should be utilized in software development (to improve international collaboration).
@ttmrichter@lemmy.ml avatar

Esperanto is not a particularly easily learnable language to most of the world. It’s a very parochial language made by someone whose exposure to language was all European and very strongly focused on specifically East European languages both phonetically and grammatically. English, to take a horrifically terrible language at random, is not much harder to learn for, say, a Chinese speaker than Esperanto would be, but it would be a million times more useful given the rather pathetically small number of Esperanto speakers out there.

If you’re going to use a constructed IAL (as opposed to de facto lingua francas like have been historically the case), make one that isn’t filled with idiotic things like declension by case, by gender, by number, by tense, by … Or you’re going to have most people in the world ignoring it. Like you already have for Esperanto.

Ĉu vi scias Esperanton? Esperanto ne estas perfekta, sed la Angla estas pli granda malordo. Mi vere dubas ke la Angla estus tiel facila kiel Esperanto.

Esperanto is ignored for political reasons, not because its bad.

PolandIsAStateOfMind , to asklemmy in Would it matter if newspapers ceased to be printed?
@PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmy.ml avatar

I don’t think so. Some people would surely grumbled, after all reading newspaper to breakfast or sitting in comfy chair is something many people still do, but digital media made rapid advancement in last decade.

Though things outside strictly “news” papers, like illustrated magazines will probably exist regardless, even if in diminished form. Anyways as far as i know they are still very popular, there is very many of them.

beetsnuami , to linux in Nix Package Manager Advice

On my NixOS, nix sets the environment variables XDG_DATA_DIRS, XDG_CONFIG_DIRS, etc. Maybe these contain what you‘re looking for? Do you have a path ~/.nix-profile/share/applications?

liberatedGuy OP ,
@liberatedGuy@lemmy.ml avatar

I have this line export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$HOME/.nix-profile/share:$HOME/.share:“${XDG_DATA_DIRS:-/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/}” Do I need to add anything else? I do have the directory you have mentioned.
