im wondering, does using uBlock help in any way? can they block metas pixel and thereby protect you?

thanks a lot, i’ll check them out!

well, i don’t know the last state you know, but they added a floating search bar, which is pretty, but not beneficial beyond that i think. they added a default shortcut for copying the current webaddress which i sorely miss on mullvad. besides i dont think they added any major features i would’ve noticed, but it feels like a very stable experience atm, both on linux and macos.

i would like to move from zen to firefox, but as of right now i’m somewhat unhappy with the vertical tabs in firefox. i’ll keep an eye on them though and make the switch once they got some more features (like only appearing when mousing to the left edge of the window and staying entirely hidden otherwise)

me too

i love the raspberry pi imager for that reason. i don’t want no balena etcher stealing my data, but a gui is very convenient for flashing isos, so raspi imager it is! (works for any iso you want)

im using fedora and its nice, but i installed bazzite on a mates laptop recently, and when it comes to nvidia, and especially hybrid graphics (laptops with nvidia gpus), it’s so much easier to use bazzite with their preconfigured nvidia stuff than anything else. so, bazzite is really nice to use and based on fedora, but for my main machine i’ll probably stick to fedora for now.

i honestly don’t know. i’ve read about it here and there but never actually tried it

use bython, python with braces XD

i also used manjaro, and whilst they had a pretty looking theme on grub, it broke on me three times, where i managed to repair it the first two and then just installed fedora the third time. never looked back. when i installed manjaro i ran an update after boot and immediately lost a bunch of manjaro theming in my DE… wth?

im using arch win11 btw is the flex of the future

im trying to play the settlers iv gold edition and it’s insanely hard despite it being an offline game. i may try running it on a pc with win7 or xp, but id prefer having it in lutris (same for settlers heritage of kings)

does that mean we could build a wsl that provides the flatpak environment, so that we could get a one click install flatpak for windows?

with how the german community is radically translating everything english directly into german, i too tend to need some time figuring out what the heck they mean. lemmy is translated as „let me“ but in one word, same for meme being translated as „me me“. so, oftentimes, i need to translate half the words of a sentence directly into english without taking context into consideration, then try to put them together and reread, if that makes any sense…

Smile, you are being protected.

once put usb-c in a usb-a port and my desktop pc performed an immediate reboot without any permanent harm…

i think this is a good summary

i also hate the idea of giving up apple pay when testing graphene. i really hope to find a somewhat ok alternative, but from what i’ve heard it seems to be the best there is atm :(

yeah honestly i really think that you should swap to linux!

i second this
