At first I was like... what does Winamp have to do with apps development?

I know, in fact I'm using Linux Mint. The problem is that sometimes you need to use a GNOME app that looks completely out of place.

>many apps now just use CSD If there's something I hate about Linux, it's CSD (Client-Side Decorations, in case people don't know what it is). If I wanted all my apps to look different from each other, I'd use macOS.

Speaking of "Content Creation", I'd also like to add the Affinity Suite. I don't particularly like it after being bought by Canva, but it works almost flawlessly on Linux. You can even download a ready-to-run AppImage (n

I don't agree with the word "sideloading" though. It's just _installing_.

I did the same, turning off all AI and smart features (including those Primary/Social/Promotion tabs) made Gmail so much better. I'm planning to move to another service provider though. I can't trust Google anymore.

I also love Purelymail. I love the fact that it's so cheap, but that also scares me, because I know it can't last forever.

Am I the only one who thinks that the Coinbase [1] picture has been AI generated, or at least heavily AI-altered? The movie posters behind look like garbage, and what's wrong with that Return of the Jedi poster? Why is there a random b

The Nexus 5 bezel and the Google+ link in the footer don't make this launcher look modern and maintained... but I'll give it a try anyway.

You shouldn't look for interesting Lemmy instances; you can pretty much use any instance and subscribe to interesting _communities_ from there. If English is not your native tongue, I'd suggest you to find an instance in your lang

Luckily, we have alternatives: Bluesky, Mastodon. Even Lemmy is a great alternative to Reddit nowadays (I'd say, even better than Reddit). It has a bit of a Hacker News vibe, but on different subjects.

I also feel like nobody uses Twitter anymore, after Musk bought it. Now it's just random scammers and "tech bros". It doesn't surprise me at all, after reading "Character Limit: How Elon Musk Destroyed Twitter"

I don't know if my language grammar rules (Italian) are different than English, but I've always seen spaces before and after em-dashes. I don't like the em-dash being stuck to two unrelated words.

>The Wii was still in the SD era and only had analog outputs, it never got HDMI. Wow, that's true. It could only go up to composite output. I had forgot. Good times.

Interesting. I originally assumed it was some kind of HDMI-CEC technology. It was just the sensor sending the right IR signal to the TV.
