I have the exact same netbook and specs and I installed fedora lxde a couple months ago just to see how it would go and…it’s pretty decent performance if you use it just to browse the web or text editing… Installed vscodium and it got laggy as hell though … Had to use geany instead

Wow I remember playing lost vikings in my uncle’s desktop when I was a kid

Back in the day I had the idea to install Debian, but then for some reason I added a bunch of Ubuntu and other debian version sources in the sources.list to install some program I wanted … Can’t remember what happened but I do remember having to install the OS again … Ubuntu this time

Yeah I quit Ubuntu after 12 years but I still recommend it for people trying to change OS …it’s great OS

Yeah I bought an ubuntu laptop in 2018…don’t know what’s the news here…

I’ve used organic maps for a while but had a problem in a trip I had to arrive on time and there was a change in the road that wasn’t in open street maps that almost caused me losing a test I had so when I really need to make it I choose Waze lately. And I live in a big city where traffic info is a must so I’m using less of organic maps because of that…Waze gets me off heavy traffic while organic maps doesn’t show arriving time correctly so…great alternative but not that reliable about traffic info depending on your needs

I’m part of that community 🤩

The Wako Siege is a good one about the US too…

Sorry,I had just waken up and my lemmy app (jerboa) is terrible when erasing words…got some punctuation erased.

Retiring doesn’t seem like an option from my perspective… Better start gaming now

Last time I tried aws, took me like four hours to figure that I had to borrow another IP address (different than the ip I received when created the instance) in order point it at my domain. Took me a long time find that option in the menu too

Edit:added cohesion and some punctuation.

I open developer tools every day doing that!

You’re right… But I don’t have an ssd in my machine and didn’t want tons of mounted filesystems in my 10 year old machine…I’m far from an expert but seems to me that is simpler to have all my packages from dnf or apt …I’ve changed to fedora because dnf seemed better than apt resolving dependencies …not just because of the snap thing

Sure…I wouldnt choose fedora for a server…maybe RHEL…I chose debian for my home server…can’t go wrong with debian in the server 😅

That’s why I moved to fedora recently…didn’t like to see 30 or so mounted filesystems every time I did an fdisk -l to mount some disk

I’m using foot since I’ve installed sway and it’s just fine …not a super user to evaluate well

No way I didn’t see that! I thought it was while using the English keyboard since it doesn’t happen in message apps and the only place I use English keyboard is in Lemmy (jerboa) … I’ll switch to other app

I use openboard but it gets me mad sometimes when I start deleting characters and it removes the space between the last word…sometimes it’s really annoying!

I think you’re totally right! It’s kinda hard to use banking apps with a custom ROM already… Unless some big corporation makes a move into something different we’re gonna be stucked in the iOS and Android chains …In that case I wish Microsoft would have been successful with their mobile OS so other companies had the guts to launch their own and compete in a more fragmented market
