I think you are mixing the big companies monopoly with Open Source.

very dificult to self host email

It is not (example: mailcow.email), the difficult is to keep it safe, updated and pay the hosting, but there are alternatives of email hosting like posteo.de, so I would say you just didn’t search for any alternative.

before we had personal websites

You can still self-host your own website, if not, you can find a provider or use alternatives like gohugo.io, it’s full of it.

community forums then reddit came and take over the forums making profit of off it

You can still use Lemmy and forums… I never used Reddit, so I don’t see what’s so good about it, a part of some posts that has some good info as any other forum or website that I got into. I don’t see how this damages open source or where is the issue with the open source.

The real problem is the people ignorance, they are still using the big tech apps that have more marketing that other ethical apps. But there is nothing wrong with FOSS here, big tech uses this mass control as government does too to control civilians feelings and thoughts.

Big tech also does open source because they are very interested in Open Source, such as Linux, the system that runs the world. Without Linux (which is open source) the world couldn’t run. All routers, servers, IoT, many devices (etc.) run Linux, Open Source.

Any closed source app that big tech or small tech do also uses Open Source tools and libraries. And you are an ignorant.

Aradia , 6 months ago to linux in I'm returning my Lenovo laptop that gave me tons of compatibility issues and getting this Dell XPS 13 instead. Thoughts?

Dell XPS 13 with the “developer” label is also pretty nice so it’s all good, but check that it has the “developer” label, or it will be not designed to be compatible, if I’m not wrong, the main difference is the Wi-Fi adapter. Also, out of this topic, careful with the finance and credit card, it’s always a scam unless you really need it to work I wouldn’t spend money that I don’t have.

EDIT: About the compatibility, on this Reddit post, people are saying there is not really any difference reddit.com/…/difference_between_the_standard_and_…, and I think the Wi-Fi adapter was only on the old versions (years ago when I bought mine). Haha… 😛

Woah, thanks!

Aradia , 6 months ago to linux in I'm returning my Lenovo laptop that gave me tons of compatibility issues and getting this Dell XPS 13 instead. Thoughts?

Same, I would go to Arch (for me the best distro, it’s clean), and if you want something easier just Linux Mint.

EDIT: I would forget about PopOS, really think this distro suck.

Aradia , 6 months ago to linux in I'm returning my Lenovo laptop that gave me tons of compatibility issues and getting this Dell XPS 13 instead. Thoughts?

Yeah, I knew it, I still would get a TUXEDO computer, something like TUXEDO InfinityBook S 15 - Gen8, the DELL XPS 13 is very small, small keyboard, very portable but not really nice to work with. And TUXEDO looks much more into Linux than DELL.

For Linux compatibility, something like this www.tuxedocomputers.com would be better than Dell XPS 13.

The post on your link has no date, I don’t know if this is from January or from December.

Aradia , 6 months ago to linux in Which distro in your opinion is the best for virtualization (Windows 10 on either KVM or VMware), stability, and speed?

But Proxmox is a big web interface app with many packages, right? virt-manager looks much easier than installing Proxmox.

Aradia , 6 months ago to linux in Which distro in your opinion is the best for virtualization (Windows 10 on either KVM or VMware), stability, and speed?

For just two VM, any Linux distro is enough, virt-manager to easily run those VMs up and done. The default network will allow them to communicate between their NAT. Proxmox sounds too many complications for just some testing or development stuff.

Temple OS has no virtualization.

Aradia , 6 months ago to linux in Which distro in your opinion is the best for virtualization (Windows 10 on either KVM or VMware), stability, and speed?

I use virt-manager GUI to control KVM easily, but you can control anything easily with virsh command lines. I dislike VMware and VirtualBox, neither needed. Also, on terminal client virsh you can do much more configurations than just with virt-manager.

Aradia , 6 months ago to linux in I didn't know where else to ask this, if there is another comm i should ask please lmk. Do you have any suggestions for wireless headphones i can use with linux?

Well, then I can’t help, I normally always get those that cost more than 200 USD, they have it all (Bluetooth + dongle) and with high quality (+ noise-canceling). Mines are WH-1000XM4 if you are interested, and I’m very happy with them, in the past I had Bose QuietComfort 35 and Sennheiser Momentum M2-AEBT and I would still get Sony WH-1000XM4 as it is smarter with many features and quality.

More than “with Linux” you should indicate how much do you expect to spend here, it’s not about the OS, it’s about what kind of headsets you want (what features).

Aradia , 6 months ago to asklemmy in If a criminal gets a life sentence in prison, then they die, then they come back to life, is their life sentence fulfilled and they can be released from prison?

But we are talking about sentenced to prison, not sentenced to death.
