  • GNOME vs KDE Plasma in 2024: which one is better for Linux beginners?
  • tom42 tom42 Now 100%

    A question with no right answer, because it is a matter of taste and habits.

    Both are very much sophisticated desktop environments which very useful defaults. Neither Gnome nor Plasma are too complicated for beginners and can be customized easily. If you want to you can go very deep into the customization too.

  • tom42 tom42 Now 100%

    If you just want to save the text to read later, go with HTML.

    If you want to archive it with graphical elements and embedded images, PDF is the better choice.

  • Mullvad Now Self Hosting Support Emails
  • tom42 tom42 Now 100%

    What I find kind of strange is that they have used Gmail before. Feels not to be the best decision for a VPN service which offers anonymous access.

    Even better that they have switched now.

  • What Linux "Productivity" (ideally FOSS) tools do you use?
  • tom42 tom42 Now 100%

    A combination of different.

    For brainstorming Logseq is great, for tasks I use CalDAV in combination with Thunderbird and JTX Board (Android) a lot.

    In the summer I was playing at a festival like camp at night. Before me the DJ was playing nice old school Dubstep. So I started with more or less banging dnb. The crowed was very pleased and satisfied. After some hours the db heads stayed still enjoying so I slightly faded to more deep dnb. And this is the last hour I played. Maybe you enjoy it too.

    Isn't it technically impossible to use unlimited space?

  • tom42 tom42 Now 100%

    When I am on Hyprland I use foot. It is fast and well configurable.

    My fallback is Gnome and inside I use the new kgx aka Console. I like that it shows in the window decoration's color when I'm working remotely or as super user.

  • Is anyone using NixOS as their daily driver?
  • tom42 tom42 Now 100%

    Using NixOS as my daily OS on a X1 since six years now.

    The first months have been hard as at this time was no installer at all and I had to do everything manually. After a while I got used to the update process.

    Recently I switched to Nix Flakes which is another challenge but seems to make the Nix way even more consequent.

    The only odd thing what drives me nerves is that compiling on that machine takes sometimes a half day.

    Besides this it is still the best OS I ever used

  • Is there an option to hide all posts from certain instances? Or is this feature planned yet? I would like to keep the **All** stream clean. Edit: The solution is here: https://lemm.ee/comment/1903303

    Occasionally I get feedback that some listen to DJ sets I put together to work. So I took a look at what I actually listen to for deep work and recorded a mix specifically for that.
