I didn’t mean to imply they’d roll in buggy packages, by virtue of release; just that Fedora’s function is typically regression testing for the money making product.
The testing is for the much more marketable enterprise window.
Attempting solidarity pragmatically.

Generally Fedora’s purpose is to make sure nothing gets into redhat (RHEL) Linux. So if there are breaking changes to things, you’ll be getting them.
Historically if people had wanted to learn I’d push them towards Ubuntu because its Debian based, meaning familiar enough to most of what runs the modern internet that I could eventually (I’m not a Linux admin) fix.
These days if you just want to use it I’d pick Linux mint, just since they seem to be orienting towards that way. Arch or SUSE based something if you want to learn more about how the packages you install work together. But the choice in distro honestly feels more like an installer and package manager choice than anything. a distro is just a choice of which thousand things to hide in a trenchcoat.
I just ideologically don’t like IBM and would rather hand in my bug reports to the volunteer ecosystem.
Even if you’re right, those organizations still have to be dragged kicking and screaming to do the right thing.
It’s not a quick solution, but the answer is more education about the space, so that there are more voices.
I ended up on a first gen dell developer xps and didn’t win the Intel nic lottery. Dell’s Ubuntu repo bricked my laptop a dozen times til I moved to arch, which actually had the decency to include the broadcom driver.
The hardware is alright, but the total lack of effort in maintaining has been from the jump.
+1 here for the arch recommendation as an ex ms sys op. Browsing their repos was outstanding for retooling, most of the config problems you hit are a great way into the ecosystem.
It’s crazy how far this extends. I have fewer problems on my 5k atom series laptop GPU/CPU after fooling with a few of the settings than with an nvidia 2k card.
No issues with either full Intel or amd stacks a decade old.
Tldr and tealdeer in the arch repo are both helpful, but Ill do you one better since someone already beat me to it. I found fish shell’s tab completion with either tool to be immensely helpful if you’re not trying to stay stock standard. But if you’re working on a lot of remote machines you don’t own stick with bash/zsh.
There’s some easy to find fuzzy search and linting for for history plugins that mean if you found it once you can do it again in whichever shell.
Its mostly familiarity, but i don’t think I could function without fzf.
I’ve kind of come and gone full circle on this one. It fits in the same space as the terminal, way more useful when you know what you want.
Some config files are a lot easier to get the behavior I want, but editing a poorly formatted (or in some some cases pointlessly complicated) config is a quick nope out.
Too many options to learn a new language.
If you’re the type of person with an opinion on on how software should work, there are options to make it happen.
It’s been my first trip back in a decade, just looking through my options in the core repo these days has made me giddy. I worked for years as a Windows environment sys admin, half my tools went out the window for directly better options almost immediately.
Most of the open source software you’ll find had someone who thought there was a big enough issue to roll up their sleeves, so lots of the projects are answers to questions you haven’t thought of yet too. The entire orientation puts fixing things ahead of profiting off them.
Thank you for this, been hunting for a decent gesture typing option for awhile. Floris board had been decent, but the lack of actual suggestions was brutal to work around.
Things like this make me wish the traditionally anti government party wasn’t a bunch of loonies, because they’d be the ones pushing this to public conscious in a way that might move the needle.
I don’t doubt the intentions of (some) progressive members of government, but they’re outgunned and have a long list of priorities. Getting legislation to reverse this isn’t coming from corporatists, the infinite retention is going to seem like a feature to business.
Using the stock market to measure a recession has to account for continually rising rates at which money is rented. If you can see pretty massive cases of consumer level inflation while businesses struggle, you already have a hole money is leaving.
Watching the evergrande saga unwind over the course of years should give an idea to the extent of run time it will take to see results, especially when it is in the interest of investors to prop up value.
If you have the patience letting the drip of communities surface through your instances ‘all’ feed has been a good way to take in the growth.
I have an account I don’t normally comment from I leave all the memes unblocked for killing time, otherwise it’s been a lot of negative filtering and following interesting comments.
If you’re self hosting that’s a different problem.
I laughed a little because I’m not sure I ever grew out of the expectation of everything being a little broken. You are going to learn so much you could have done without.
On a more sober note I’m not sure adding a business model fixes the problem anymore.
If we paid for our anonymity like toll roads or subscriptions we box out people who can’t afford it. Commodity level information isn’t likely to be decreasing in value any time immediately.
If equitable access is also on the list, I don’t see anything but regulation and taxes getting you there. Just look at the steam store prices outside the first world and you have an idea for how poorly it could go.
It’s a hurdle out of the way, and I’ve got some tempered enthusiasm as long as ComEd doesn’t touch it.
Unfortunately any construction is going to have a long enough tail the opportunity to grift off this one will outlive JB. Maybe we defy gravity for once in Illinois.
I mean for those that don’t get the reference: The end of every French film I saw in college ended in a otherwise blank card that just says Fin (end). I think it’s the kids in the hall that do a pretty decent parody of this but it’s been years.
Stealing the Le from Lemmy just makes it The End.
I mean the high brow homage is incredibly French, and not entirely accurate, but Le Fin remains funny to me.
If you want some branding advice keep it simple and mildly adjacent, portmanteau tends to sound busy if you’ve got a bunch multi syllable words. I’d imagine most of the users will find there way here out of some degree of familiarity, the name and a screenshot do all your lifting for you.
Blank for Lemmy grates on me, but you can drop it later and it brings some platform awareness, so not all bad.
Keep up the great work!
Hopefully healthcare.
From a macro economic perspective, (and im not advocating for a conspiracy, just aggregate business interest) they’re dropping energy usage so they can pay less on their electricity bills.
So actually a double fu. get less so they can pay less rent, to provide lesser service.
Because rent seeking is the only tech bubble left.
