i actually love Arch but i might yap: I really love Arch and theres like thousands of people using it and i get how versatile and cool to flex it is, but sometimes everyone doesnt have time for fixing stuff in their system and just want a stable one. I think im gonna steer away from Arch- and arch based for a while just to use Debian for a while (if i swwep off the distrohopping plague). I know everyone likes arch here and i do too, but we all need a change at one point. Im not saying im gonna stop using arch, im saying that im taking a break from the community and the distro itself. Debian is actually stable, Arch is not. I know there will be people that will disagree with me on that or something idk, but as i said: everyone needs a change sometimes. i hope everyone understands,,,,,,,,, inquiries via dms btw if yall have any problems just dm me its ok. I dont dislike Arch i just dont feel like using it for a while. also i have ADHD so i might have repeated some stuff but yeh. love yall.

I got a start in upgrading 7 donated laptops. 4 are done. GNU/Linux Mint with Xfce desktop installed in about 30 minutes per computer. Another 10-15 minutes to run updates. Specs: 4 to 8GB of memory, hard drives (rather than SSDs). Instead of being recycled they are ready for continued use. Totally usable for day-to-day general use. Anyone can do this kind of direct action, community mutual aid that conserves energy and resources.
Begin the journey: Why your ethics might require adoption of Free Software
My own journey into free software began with my ethics. It was, and is, deeply personal but simultaneously connected to my understanding of the larger world I am a part of. I’ve long believed and argued to those around me that what we do as individuals matters. We are not helpless, we are not without power in our...

We have a choice to make: How we compute matters
I accepted Apple’s behavior for far too long. And then, one day, I said nope. Nope. Nope. NOPE. On some level, at some point I began to care about how they, a profit seeking company, were treating me as a human being. I simply had to stop pretending that it was okay for them to treat me in such a way. And that it was in my best interest to stop cooperating. We do not...

"'Here's what I do' versus 'You should'"
A bit of a gripe about people who tell others what they *should* do.

If you’re on Linux, there’s a good chance you use GNOME: it’s the default experience across Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora Workstation, Endless OS, and more. If you’re on another desktop, you still likely use components developed by GNOME contributors—or maybe you get apps from Flathub.
Want to become more than just a user? How about… a friend? 🥺 Become a Friend of GNOME to support GNOME, Flathub, and the work we do!

Some thoughts on Fedoras strategy for 2028. I’m not really convinced atomic distributions are needed, but I like the idea.
That said, there are certain things that get way more complicated and require more research / knowledge / involvement of a user once they get past the “open a web browser and work in Google Docs” phase than on a non atomic distribution.

If you're into music and audio production with Linux and/or open-source software, you could enjoy joining my community chat!
A lot of fantastic people there, sharing ideas, software and helping each other solve issues.
The community chat is bridged between a self-hosted, open-source Rocket.Chat instance at https://chat.unfa.xyz an Discord (proprietary, centralized): https://discord.gg/ShHtbEr
I'll see you around :)

My laptop has Windows 10 installed. It keeps reminding me it is about to give up on me. I don't want to buy another, so I'm considering entering the world of Linux. I am scared, though. Will I be able to cope with it? What do I use instead of Excel for my spreadsheets?
Where can I find an easy to follow guide on how to change from Windows to Linux? #Linux

Mainline #Linux on the #Lenovo Ideapad Duet 3 Chromebook with Snapdragon 7c gen 2 and 8GB of ram. Almost everything works[1] - except the cameras - with only some minor post installation tweaks needed. Linux on #ARM looks promising. Rocking #PostmarketOS 24.12 and #GNOME 47.

Found some motivation to revisit my zero dep Wayland compositor I started working on last Summer.
Made a number of performance improvements, and fixed a fair number of layout /interaction issues related to popups/sub-compositing so now firefox interaction is much better.
Also added multi-workspace and a debug console and started to link up logs/tracing into that.
Next steps: more debug console options, more performance work and then custom configuration/key binds/layouts.
