Rather than copying macOS, phone UIs come to mind. Your bar at the top with info, dock at the bottom of the homescreen with shortcuts. It's felt like phones were taking over for a while. You could perhaps argue that iOS and Android UI

Look at the PinePhone, Pinebook Pro, and RockPro64. All have mainline support and you can run several distros on them. I consider them the gold standard in this space, although it's thanks largely to the community and not the actual co

I get updates every week or two from LineageOS. I'm sure you'll say that doesn't count, but I specifically pick devices with LineageOS support.

You can have multiple accounts on different instances and you can find general instances. I don't know why so many people flock to very specific ones.

Absolutely. I hate subscriptions and tend to avoid them. No Netflix or Spotify or any of that popular stuff. I've only done them for things like toothpaste and shampoo where I really do need more periodically anyway, and if I cancel th

Unsure if anything changed, but even the first time I ever used Spacemacs, they recommended the development branch. Some projects are allergic to cutting releases for some reason (pfetch hasn't had one in years). edit: Here is a releva

This list will be useful if it stays up-to-date. I find that on qutebrowser and sometimes IceCat that I've had to spoof my UA to get past the CloudFlare browser checks that are unfortunately on many sites these days (such as the GitLab

People who were okay with updating to 8 were probably okay to keep updating, while 7 holdouts often think it's the last good version. It reminds me of the Smash Bros. series, where the most commonly played games are always Melee and w

Vim and Emacs are free. This seems like the norm to me.

In my experience it does become harder to type on staggered keyboards unless you're continuing to do it regularly. You may need to relearn to do that. Same deal with continuing QWERTY usage. VIA is proprietary and not really an officia

TOTP can also be used from a PC with something like KeePassXC, and you can have the DB sync to other devices with SyncThing (including your phone where you can access them with KeePassDX). Much better than SMS which really is tied to your p

Unless something changed, you can enable SMS MFA, add TOTP as a secondary MFA option, then remove SMS to only have TOTP. I did this a couple years ago after someone explained it to me. It is stupid, tedious, and still requires giving up you

I've started doing this with a few programs using sleep 1 and a while loop. First was ncmpcpp as it would declare itself too small and quit sometimes when my terminal with tmux resized, this way it'd either reopen when I adjusted

There is ambiguity in vertical / horizontal split. Does it refer to the "cut" or the result? In Sway and i3 if I make a vertical split and open a new window, it appears below (thus vertical), but the split was like a cut hori

I'm not using systemd, but have been pretty happy with earlyoom. It tends to take out my web browser I think. Fairly inoffensive.

There are not really any clients for XMPP or Matrix that work as well as irssi or weechat for IRC. I also have more issues with servers for XMPP and Matrix (delayed messages, uptime, encryption weirdness). I use things besides IRC, but IRC

I've been perfectly happy with vim binds using both dvorak and workman layouts. Sticking with it from the start when you're slowly relearning to type at all makes it feel normal in a week or two at most. The only meaningful change

I asked Stallman what he does for taxes once and I believe he downloads the relevant PDFs and uses xournalpp for modifying/signing them as needed. I was planning to give this a go rather than give in to using turbotax like most people

Autistic people struggle with this a lot. They get used to masking and then they burn out because they can't actually just be normal all the time.
