Looks really fun. But it will be a Meta Quest exclusive :(

Sadly, I haven't found a way to do it. It would be a great feature

I don't use Linux at the moment, but one of the things I miss most is the lack of bloatware. It's so refreshing to have just the applications you need, not some weird thing running in the background eating up your RAM.

It's hard to say what would change the most for you, as it depends a lot on what you do. I recommend installing it as a secondary OS and trying it out to see if you like it.

One of the great things about Linux is that you can find almost any information you need on the Internet, so it's pretty easy to learn how to use if you're more or less technically inclined and like to research solutions online.

It's probably just a curated statement to make him not look like a piece of shit

Used to happen to me when I was a kid. Now I'm just careful enough not to piss through the seat

Hi, I have a problem that only occurs on an Asus Vivobook F515KA and only when connected to WiFi via a Tplink repeater.

After running the ping utility for just a few seconds, I get 54 packets sent, 54 received and 143 duplicates.

I'm not sure if this is the only problem, as the device also disconnects quite often from both WiFis. It may be important to note that the laptop is running EndeavourOS and not Windows.

As far as I can tell, it has an RTL8821CE network card installed. And I have found some posts on the internet saying that the Linux driver for this is pretty bad.

I would be really thankful for any help you can give me.

jsjajsj yeah, Jerboa froze on me so I had to retype the comment. I didn't realise it had already gone through.

I completely agree, I don't find it difficult at all. But I have already tried to recommend it to a couple of friends and just having to go through those first steps was enough for them not to want to use Lemmy.

I'm sorry, I don't know if "general user" means what I think it means. English is not my first language.

What I meant was that most people who use the internet and social media on a regular basis aren't exactly nerdy/tech-savvy. So as soon as you start talking to them about federated instances and whatnot, they lose interest.

As much as I love Lemmy I don't see it going mainstream :/
It's too weird for the general user
