I'm using Linux distros for like 10 years now and recently I (again) didn't even know how to close a window. Is it Super+W? Super+Q? Alt+F4? All of those 3 might work. How do I access app preferences? Ctrl+Alt+P? Ctrl+Alt+O? Ctrl+

> Provide clear option to opt-out I would say there's a very good option to opt-out of TikTok - don't use it. Facebook is much harder to opt-out, as they can track you even if you don't have an account.

So make it necessary by refusing to work without being paid for utilizing your space and equipment. It's a thing of culture. You are paid based on supply and demand mostly. Devs should be on the front of this movement. Anyone who is ab

The feature that sold me GitLab was the ability to run your own runners. It's basically 10x (source needed) cheaper than other hosted CI/CD services. Most basic setup is like 3 commands.

Feels weird. I often send a message to myself using Facebook Messenger in order to take a quick note. I do this because I can easily access it on any device and I generally have the Messenger opened in the background. I'm not sure if

I guess they are probably just starting and the claims on their website are too far-fetched. I might give it a try if they come up with integration for JetBrains IDEs.

Did you try something else before? We are all sitting in a Jitsi Meet conference all day and it works fine so far. We even added a "private call" button on the video tiles in order to quickly initiate a 1-on-1. How is the "se
