Why did you choose gitlab and not codeberg/forgejo for open source everything?

I don't want to watch a video about it.

I'd like to know it, but a couple of sentences wouldn't have hurt

What's up with homebrew that you'd have it installed by default on linux?

I don't understand the appeal of it, can someone help me?

I just bought a new computer. I'll install fedora silverblue. Do I just need to copy the home directory? And crontab. What else do I need to move?

It improved slightly with opengl but it's still very slow to render offline maps after years.

That'll make youtube disappear for me.

Over the years I watched less and less. I only seldomly have to look into youtube for things that are easier in video than in text.

Teens and many people don't know that there is a world without ads. They have to be educated that there are alternatives - not watching youtube is a real option. You do not depend on it.

I's a horrible world many people live in. Recently I saw someone browsing on instagram, each third post is an ad and oftentimes there are ads after ads. And people follow other people and watch their ads. Incredible!

Recently, I was browsing linkedin and there were 12 ads instead of real jobs in a row. in a row. Unrelated to my profession.

Whats your fav kanban board for linux (and android)?

I know of planka, obsidian and nextcloud deck. What's your favorite tool?

Recommending to move to ios from android isn't really good advice.

My server (fedora) stops all podman containers after 2-3 hours since 3 days. I can start all containers again, and the same happens after a while. I do not know where to look for the problem.

In top, I found a oom message. I assume that the system runs out of memory and stops all services. How can I find the problem? I can’t find anything in the container logs.

I can see that systemctl status is always starting. It doesn’t become “running”. But I do not know how to proceed.

Following is very subjective and probably varies from distro to distro, de to de, app to app, user to user.

For the longest time, I believed Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab was the only way of navigation through apps and windows. Many years ago, some editor introduced me to the behavior that Ctrl+Tab switches to the last used tab. I hated that behavior. I didn't understand it and it was annoying. Luckily you could switch to the old way (in my experience) which I did.

How do you guys cycle through windows?

What is the best way for switching? Is there a standard or at least an attempt for a standard? Or at least a name for different styles?

App / Window switching

I switch and highlight apps by pressing Meta+Tab, or Meta+Shift+Tab. This works very good. I use PaperWM, a window tiling feature in GNOME such that I have no overlapping windows and don't need to care about the position of the windows anymore for the most part. When I press Ctrl+i, the window to the right of the highlighted window moves below the current window and both adjust in size to half the screen.

Cycle right isn't the proper way of going forward doesn't apply here anymore unless I define it as a zig zag movement.

Luckily, we have arrow keys. With, Meta+[Up,Down,Left,Right] I can move to any window. The shortcoming is that I need two hands because Meta is on the left and the arrow are on the right side of the keyboard. Having to use two hands is a big no-go for a fundamental command in my opinion. What's the solution to this? Ctrl+[W,S,A,D]? Does it clash with other main fundamental keybindings?

Kate uses Alt+Arrow to cycle through tabs. It uses Ctrl+Tab to cycle through time.

If you use Ctrl+Arrow to cycle through the windows, you can use Ctrl+(Shift+)Tab for cycling through time, i.e. last used tab/window.

In the browser, I navigate via Ctrl+Tab. There are no tabs below the current tab. btw, why not, mozilla? Kate and Pulsar (Atom successor) have Ctrl+N as the default for a new document (and hence tab).

For consistency, I want to use either Ctrl+T or Ctrl+N for a new document/window. Which standard do you guys use and prefer? Other apps with other keybindings?

Ctrl+Tab is good for a linear movement but Ctrl+Arrow is more logical.

I used to use Alt+F4 to quit apps. Recently, I discovered that you can use Ctrl+w to quit a tab and Ctrl+q to close a window. Wouldn't it be better to use Ctrl+q to close a tab and Meta+q to close the window?

Currently, I default to

  • Ctrl+Arrow is for tab bidimensional motion.
  • Meta+Arrow is for window bidimensional motion.
  • Ctrl+Tab is for tab time-dimensional motion.
  • Meta+Tab is for window time-dimensional motion.
  • Which is better Ctrl+T or Ctrl+N for a new tab/document? Is it good that there is a distinction?
  • Shift always reverses the action

I can't find a way to customize the keybindings in firefox, does that mean that I have to default to [Ctrl,Meta]+Tab to cycle through tabs/windows?

Yes. Very mean.

I don't think people on this sub use it, but it's great news for us. The worse it gets the likelier people move on.

I hate my current solution.

I use notification dictionary and dict.cc which is obviously not open source. For me, it takes too long just to translate a word, or look it up. Do you have a great system?

[-] GravitySpoiled@lemmy.ml 51 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Matrix like you. Most foss projects are in matrix as well. Matrix call is awesome.

[-] GravitySpoiled@lemmy.ml 39 points 9 months ago

What else does it apart from rebranding firefox and getting ad revenue?

You only need flatseal on GNOME. KDE has it baked into the settings

She earned 7 million and then asked for 3.5 million in donations iirc.

[-] GravitySpoiled@lemmy.ml 39 points 10 months ago

Looks like an ai did that

[-] GravitySpoiled@lemmy.ml 45 points 10 months ago

Desktop environment should be separated from the OS. You should be able to change the de easily. Maybe in a container.

Present the user with common software when installing the os. Ask the user if she wants to install any of it (as a flatpak).

Ask for prioprietary codecs and install them if wanted.
