Breezy feels more like KDE. It’s okay if you’re willing to spend a lifetime with confusing settings to make it useable.

And it doesn’t work well with some screen resolutions either. I’m stuck with a tablet-like UI on a phone with larger GUI settings. If you’re 20 years old with perfect eyes it’s probably not an issue. I created a ticket for it but I was met with a quite dismissive attitude and no fix.

WeatherMaster on the other hand looks better and it comes with sane defaults. It doesn’t have as much settings, but you really don’t need them sense the defaults is perfectly fine. It feels like this person knows something about good UX design.

My advice would be to not overthink things. Whatever you do, there’s always a way to undo and/or change it

I don’t know anything about what happened in the US in regards to Trump. However. I find it unlikely that any meme has ever had any play in him being a president, but I said, I don’t know anything about the US history, so I don’t have much to say about it.

Regarding the PC Master Race joke, you should read this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PC_Master_Race#History

PS. Joking about things doesn’t make them true. We have made fun about various serious topics over multiple centuries now, none of them have come true so far.

No. It was a joke that made fun of the PC users as well.

You do know that the PC Master Race was originally intended to make fun of the pseudoscientific Nazi ideology “master race”?

It feels like we need this joke more than ever before.

I find it odd that technically knowledgeable people choose Facebook over other alternatives. Even if you don’t consider the ethical and privacy issues, Facebook is, technically speaking, completely useless.

Well. I’m honestly surprised that people even go beyond Facebook to be honest. :(

I can’t tell if you’re sarcastic or not. :P

Linux Mint!

It’s based on Ubuntu, which means broad support for basically everything, including niche things like the Mullvad VPN client.

Mint has been around for a long time and they have had plenty of time to prove their place as a stable and reliable alternative.

Their software center includes well integrated support for Flatpaks, which is a a must have for things like Steam.

Mint is polished both visually and technically speaking. It’s a great general purpose option for both beginners and experienced users.

However. I might not be as ‘cool’ as some other new shiny players, which seems to be important for some, but I don’t feel comfortable recommending something that most likely last for a few years.

Mint is not something that I use myself, but it’s what I generally recommend to most users. I hope that excludes me me as some Mint fanboy.

I see. Thanks!

Threadiverse? Is that a spelling mistake?

This is social media. Not forums.

Bring back crappy forums? Why just not continue using all the good forums that we never stopped using?

It seems that IVPN is getting a lot of new customers. I have never heard about them before though. Don’t take this as any sort of recommendation or anything.

Well. Why didn’t you say so then. :D

Sure!

Better dense than hollow. I guess. ;)

A few years ago? I had this on my Android phone almost two decades ago. :D

No worries!

Rice, ricing, ricer, etc. It’s common racist lingo that’s been used for decades.

It’s also a common term used (for customising your desktop) on Reddit. They literally borrowed the word due to it’s rasist meaning.

However. This is not Reddit, and it would be nice if we could keep it more civil here, which is why I’m bringing it up. :)

Understandable how?

I’m glad you have a better experience with them! :)
