@gedaliyah@lemmy.world I have some RSS feeds but everything is read right now I’m not sure if these are all full text content: https://itsfoss.com/rss/ https://www.linuxtoday.com/feed/ https://opensource.com/feed https://www.zdnet.com/blog/open-source/rss.xml
I use Full Text RSS to pull in the full content into FreshRSS
@hiramfromthechi@lemmy.world like their content, but pity it is only really headers. There is no full text content.
@sebastiancarlos@lemmy.sdf.org my home one runs:
@GnuLinuxDude@lemmy.ml maybe something like Tkman at https://sourceforge.net/projects/tkman/? Or web based like https://linux.die.net/man/ or https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/index.html.
@kylian0087@lemmy.dbzer0.com I went with Proton and the reason was either that I could import and use my own PGP key, or because it had more general compatibility with other mail services using PGP (well possibly both those reasons). So I could send encrypted mails to Thunderbird users as well as GMail users (who had a PGP encryption extension).
@otter@lemmy.ca my notes are in Obsidian with Syncthing syncing, but my productivity and todo management has been in paid TickTick the last year. On average I have about 100 - 110 open tasks at any time. Many are monthly, quarterly, annual or longer repeating tasks like licence renewals, weather station maintenance, etc.
My tasks are all grouped into home maintenance, my mom’s stuff, medical related, radio related, server related, etc. Most have dates set with reminders, and many also have sub-tasks to be completed. I keep detailed notes in each on progress etc.
They sync across my Android phone, iPad, Linux desktop. It’s a bit of work bit brings piece of mind as I don’t worry about forgetting to do stuff.
TickTick was my best choice based on about 7 criteria I compared for my needs. Unfortunately, Google Tasks and others I tried were just not working for me as I needed multidimensional views. I like that I can snooze tasks from any device, or drag and drop to a new date, etc.
@AprilF00lz@lemmy.ml pretty difficult as there are no accurate figures for Linux distro installs - many sit behind home or corporate firewalls, sharing the same IP addresses.
But back in 2015 Dell was claiming that 42% of their PC sales in China had their Kylin OS installed - https://www.scmp.com/tech/china-tech/article/1857948/chinese-os-last-more-40-cent-dell-pcs-china-now-running-homegrown. Kylin has been improving for 23 years now so is a pretty stable Linux OS too I guess.
@DieserTypMatthias@lemmy.ml why wouldn’t I just rather change channels on Manjaro if I wanted it earlier. Changing distro’s really seems a bit extreme and going to cause other config issues. I still use X11 as my daily driver so quite happy to wait another two or three weeks until Manjaro has finished ironing it out.
@UntouchedWagons@lemmy.ca on Manjaro KDE with Nvidia proprietary drivers mine works 100% on X11, but with Wayland I still get random freezes of about 40 secs to a minute. It’s better than it was a year back when it would not boot into Wayland at all. I understand this issue is affecting some using the Nvidia proprietary driver and supposedly may be resolved with KDE v6, but I’m still waiting for the KDE v6 to hit stable release.
@SolarPunker@slrpnk.net I’ve not heard of anyone who does “not like” it? Many don’t know about it maybe. I can’t think of anything I’ve seen against it as it ticks most of the boxes for excellent privacy and has been very usable for me.
@WbrJr@lemmy.ml I’m on Manjaro Linux but principles are the same. I have an SSD boot drive and a 4TB hard drive for /home data etc. I also have a second 4TB drive for backups:
@Kajika@lemmy.ml thanks that sounds promising. I’d also seen some improvement but still got random freezes. Looking forward to the update. I have a similar setup with Manjaro KDE.
@petsoi@discuss.tchncs.de in case anyone else wonders what Toolbox is:
Toolbox is a tool for Linux, which allows the use of interactive command line environments for development and troubleshooting the host operating system, without having to install software on the host. It is built on top of Podman and other standard container technologies from OCI.
Toolbox environments have seamless access to the user’s home directory, the Wayland and X11 sockets, networking (including Avahi), removable devices (like USB sticks), systemd journal, SSH agent, D-Bus, ulimits, /dev and the udev database, etc…
This is particularly useful on OSTree based operating systems like Fedora CoreOS and Silverblue. The intention of these systems is to discourage installation of software on the host, and instead install software as (or in) containers — they mostly don’t even have package managers like DNF or YUM. This makes it difficult to set up a development environment or troubleshoot the operating system in the usual way.
Toolbx solves this problem by providing a fully mutable container within which one can install their favourite development and troubleshooting tools, editors and SDKs. For example, it’s possible to do yum install ansible without affecting the base operating system.
@hai@lemmy.ml I started in about 2006 when my work was going to fully convert to Ubuntu. At the last minutes the CIO left and our project champion also left, and Windows continued, but I’d been bitten by the bug and continued to use Ubuntu at work and at home since then. Now on Manjaro KDE.
@jherazob@beehaw.org good thing I’ve already started moving my 2FA from Authy to Bitwarden (and Bitwarden has passkeys built-in).
@iiGxC@slrpnk.net don’t forget the CL:OUD Act either - that has serious privacy implications for countries outside the USA
