Please, don't excuse their behaviors by giving examples of companies doing worse. While FB or G, or Amazon, might not be killing people directly, you could very easily compare their methods to those of big oil or tobacco, because they

And developers who refuse to see other people's points are the exact reason we get these issues. That does not mean that you are wrong or that the people here are wrong. Just because its not intrusive at the moment, it does not elimina

I would like the OS to have 1 messaging app, 1 email app, 1 calendar app etc. Then underneath, each provider has their own interface to their backend. Then we can integrate everything into one system. Now this idea still needs a lot of work

I was working from home for about 1.5 years. My daily contact was a morning phone call with the others on the team. Having a twitch stream open for 8+ hours in the background works really well for me as its more like having a radio on then

One thing that i believe they need to improve on here in Europe is allowing streaming between countries. There are a lot of people living outside their home countries here, who are not allowed to stream or watch a lot of content from home.

The only reason why i would NOT run the LTS, is if i need some very new and fancy kernel version. However, even then they normally get backported into LTS, but sometimes that wait can leave you without something critical (like wifi or hiber
