I’m using both Boost apps, Boost for Reddit and Boost for Lemmy. This way, I can only differentiate the networks by their post quality.

Reddit is bad to mediocre, full of memes and karma farming

Lemmy has few posts, but feels closer to the user

Change is always hard, be it Windows 7 to Windows 10 or 11. The German company Tuxedo Computers has pretty nice Linux laptops for beginners and professionals, this is what made the change easier for my parents: http://tuxedocomputers.com/ They even offer RTX 4090 custom laptop builds, but for the screens they still have no OLED option when I looked the last time.

This would be terrible, because any website could potentially make you a seeder for „illegal“ content while normally browsing the web without a VPN. Meaning, your real IP address may accidentally be recorded by some lawerers and you’ll get a fine for whatever you accidentally shared (very dangerous, depending on country).

There are already solutions for webtorrents, but at least these scripts can be blocked.

Apple’s requirements should be a pile of money, a big pile of money.

Most Lego games. It’s like a physical pain to me, NOT to 100 % them.

You don’t have to, just get it from flathub as a flatpak.

Why the hassle? It is available to install as flatpak for any distro: https://flathub.org/apps/com.makemkv.MakeMKV

I did install it via package manager back when I used this distro and it worked well, but some weeks after, I switched distros to Kubuntu. Now I’m using Arch btw. with latest KDE Plasma (I recommend this).

Here is a comment I made in another thread:

For pirated games, I recommend Bottles installed as a flatpak. That’s because it has a per-game toggle for sandboxing the app, not giving it access to your complete home folder and optionally no network access or audio output.

Even when using trusted sources, you can never be safe enough. Bottles with sandboxing will at least protect your files from crypto trojans and prevent you from becoming part of a botnet. It should not have any impact on performance.

Remember to put all installer files anywhere inside the prefix folder, otherwise sandboxing denies access to them. After creating an empty game entry in Bottles, check the 3 dots menu for the option to open it in your file explorer.

Visual Studio is not available on Linux and not really working in Wine, sadly. You can use IntelliJ IDEA as a good alternative, it supports Linux officially and has a Flutter plugin.

For a beginner, Linux Mint is perfect. It is based on Ubuntu which is based on Debian, so you can follow most tutorials written for either distribution (like the installation instructions for IntelliJ IDEA or other software that is not available from the APT package manager).

snap instead of deb

Glad you like my recommendation! :)

I hope that too, this is by far the best player I have tried on Linux.

Have fun!
