DeltaWingDragon , to linux in I was looking at the firefox flatpak on flathub. Won't this warning make a non tech-savy user anxious? This might make them think they'll get a virus or something like that.

as opposed to chrome?

DeltaWingDragon , to linux in What is/was your distrohopping journey?
@DeltaWingDragon@sh.itjust.works avatar
  • Started on a Windows Vista machine, but I dual-booted Mint on it when it started to run slow.
  • The software broke or got corrupted, so I installed Lubuntu.
  • Lubuntu started to freeze, so I installed Mint again.

The hardware was really outdated at this point, so I got a new machine. Windows 8.1.

Got a different new computer with Windows 10. Started trying out lots of distros of VMs.

  • Switched out the drive and installed… OpenSUSE, I think?
  • Catastrophic system error during an update, left the system corrupted. I installed Debian.
  • Another system error (which may have been caused by me) led me to install FreeBSD.
  • FreeBSD was usable, but not super usable. I installed OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.
  • Catastrophic system error during an update, left the system corrupted. I installed Debian (again).

tldr: Windows Vista -> Mint -> Lubuntu -> Mint again -> Windows 8.1 (new computer) -> Windows 10 (new computer) -> OpenSUSE Leap -> Debian -> FreeBSD -> OpenSUSE Tumbleweed -> Debian again

Got a source about Adguard? I use it on my phone, and I don’t get any ads.

Wait, they’re closed-sourcing Ubuntu? Doesn’t the GPL say that any fork or derivative of any GPL’d product has to have the GPL? It’s supposed to propagate.

DeltaWingDragon OP , to linux in Do all DEs store the trash in the same place?
@DeltaWingDragon@sh.itjust.works avatar

I need the exact location of the trash so I can specify it in the excludes for my backup tool. If it changes with the DE, then I have to change the excludes. But it doesn’t.

OK, got it

DeltaWingDragon , to linux in Can anyone recommend a lightweight, stable distro for a thinkpad?
@DeltaWingDragon@sh.itjust.works avatar

Debian or OpenSUSE. Can’t go wrong.

DeltaWingDragon OP , to linux in Looking for a simple, time-based night color control
@DeltaWingDragon@sh.itjust.works avatar

Now I’m on Cinnamon. I am using QRedshift. It works, and I can set the time manually.

Lesson: Don’t use redshift-gtk, use QRedshift!
