I can see you’re not using Flatpak, the destroyer of disk space. Nice list though!

And here I am, running projects for the past 20 years mostly using agile, and still very much unconvinced about its supposed superiority over waterfall.

For email hosting only. But yes, they are not as trustworthy as they once were

It looks as if it’s hard to maintain a browser by design by making overly complicated HTML/CSS/Javascript/etc standards.

It makes me want to spend more time using the Gemini protocol.

Strangely enough, that’s what I thought for a long time but not this time. Removing the lines I saw makes absolutely no sense unless you’re selling users data, which I strongly oppose to.

I’ve started to use librewolf, unsure if this is a good idea.

In my experience with this format, only the good ones are leaving and you’re stuck with the rest.

It’s been a bumpy road. I have strong memories of Gnome devs explaining to users how wrong they were to dislike Nautilus’s awful spatial mode. And when that guy refused to implement a switch off option because users were wrong to ask for it.

Now really, it’s quite functional once you’ve tweaked with gnome-tools and added vital extensions. You also have to remember useless stuff such as “Video” means “Totem”. I’ll just never understand why they don’t really care about sane defaults.

Same question: super weird to leave them out…

Did they just remove their comments?

Talking from a usability standpoint it’s gotten much better. It’s still slow to open the app but the search got much more efficient.

Any chance the videos are hosted somewhere else than TikTok?

Thanks. That’s too bad because I really want them to succeed

I will not do any gaming on my laptop, I really only need a quality screen to read documents and display the occasional Netflix video

While I like the general objectives behind framework, I am not convinced about their standard qualities.

My laptop is fine, I just want to understand the trends in the industry and where to buy when it eventually dies. For the record, I have a Dell Latitude 7410 released in 2020 (bought used) and it works perfectly. However, I wish I could have better audio, higher-quality trackpad, and a lighter laptop.

Thanks!

I was under the impression they were more gaming oriented than “business”, am I mistaken then?

Dear random strangers,

I have bought Thinkpad T for many years following your advice. Then I moved to Dell Latitude 3 years ago as this was your recommendation. So far, very happy with them!

Where should I go for my next laptop? Is it time for framework?

(I’m looking for 14" business laptops, excellent screen, good audio, light and solid, performance is a nice-to-have, Linux-only)

Same for Reddit, still very much alive apparently.

(I’m not going back, I’m happy here)

Sorry I just realised I was wrong and I did not have the menu bar by default. I don’t really notice it anymore…

Are you talking about the 2 bars at the top of the window? If yes, I find them more useful than the used space. Probably a matter of taste
