I've tried tiling WM but they are not for me
Yeah I use workspaces too, it's just that each of them have 2 windows placed besides each other as if each were a "normal sized" display
Arch
I find that bugs in linux programs (and they will happen regardless of distro) are more easily tweaked in systems that do minimal modifications to upstream programs and keep them updated regularly with what the developers release
Also AUR makes it easy to install pretty much anything without having to add ppas, new repo links, etc
Ideally yes, but we know that behavior probably won't change :)
Yep, already seeing in the family, people having to pay for their own sub now that netflix is cracking on password sharing
They knew they'd face backlash with this decision, but the average person just want to turn on the TV and watch something, so they'd keep paying for that instead of suddenly learning how to pirate things, or move on to other streaming services
It's a short term measure. Long term is: will it have enough exclusive content that makes it worth it?
At this point, it's only going to get worse. It's a very large Venture Capital backed company, on track to IPO.
Large VC/public companies goals will follow more of what we see with "mainstream" sites and social media. It'd be against their goals and their business to have less ads, less agorithms showing what their partners want to see and not what the user wants to see, less bloat on their front end. Even if the CEO wanted to go that way, he'd quickly be replaced.
It's a self sustaining movement of capital now and users are annoyances that they have to deal to achieve their goals.
I'll be honest, I started using redding decade ago because most forums were very niche, specific, with weird to follow rules, very low on users, and reddit seemed to always have a community for each topic I had an interest on. It still does, but the end is approaching fast, and I don't want to search Discord servers, social media videos, or even ancient methods that are alternatives like IRC servers, mailing lists ; search results are useless in Google due to SEO and already affect other search engines
It all comes up to finding one or more sites that don't look ancient or too mobile focused, and if enough people are going to use it and stick to it. Otherwise it'll just be another corner of the web filled with a few crazy users
If you choose Arch/Arch based, or choose to install one of its supported kernels, NTFS support is integrated into the mainline kernel since version 5.15
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NTFS
So you'd be able to use your already existing disk/partitions that have NTFS. Of course you'd still need to install the OS in another partition.
I tried to keep NTFS around when I switched, but ext4 is much better for spinning disks and support for whole disk encryption (LUKS) is also another pro that made me switch everything after a while
Nope, I tried mkinitcpio -P and bootctl in arch-croot with a live usb, reinstalling kernels, installing normal linux kernel instead of zen, only downgrading nvidia worked
