Lots of people have been saying they should focus more on developing Firefox rather than doing other things like partnering with Mullvad or whatever. There are already quite a few other fediverse instances.

Yggdrasil? Meshtastic? IPFS? Briar? All sound pretty cool, not sure if we have a community for those things yet.

Is Chrome’s ad telemetry opt-in?

I use Ecosia (which uses Bing results) and it seems decent, although I haven’t used Google or DDG in a while so I can’t compare.

It’s great. I also downloaded DigiLux so I can swipe left and right to change brightness as well.

Born in 2004, I barely used the internet as a kid. Most my video games were off of CDs, and I occasionally got to use my dad’s Steam account. In like 4th grade I played some Wizards101, League of Legends, and some flash games, and started watching Minecraft youtubers. Besides that I mostly used the internet to download Minecraft mods. I kinda eased into the internet that way so I never really was surprised at having so much accessible to me.

I didn’t get on social media until I got on Reddit in high school. I tried Tumblr a bit but didn’t like it since it was too different. I still don’t use Twitter or anything, just Reddit and Lemmy and occasionally Pinterest.

It takes some fiddling, but I’ve been using HDR on Linux since Plasma 6 came out. If you don’t have an AMD GPU it would probably be really difficult to set up though.

I’ve typed reboot out of habit more than once

I’ve only played it on PC but I like this quite a bit as well

Like 4 or 5 years ago I bought a refurbished Pixel 2 XL for like $150 or $200 or something. Works great, I don’t need to upgrade (although storage is a little small). The only issue is it hasn’t had security updates since 2020 which is a little scary.

Yeah, I used it a couple years ago, and for walking especially it seemed really cool, since it has all sorts of extra data like slopes and benches or whatever. But there are a whole ton of settings everywhere, which is cool that you can customise everything but also a bit of a mess. Definitely more for power users it seems.

Yes, every video you download or stream is actually compressed quite a lot, the bitrate just determines how much compression is applied. Higher bitrate means the file is bigger and less compression is done, while low bitrate means the video has a lot less bits to store all that data and so has to do more compression.

It’s height in centimeters

Gamescope generally helps with alt+tab issues.

How is Backpack Hero by the way? I played the demo years ago and liked it but haven’t bought the actual game yet.

Sounds kinda like NixOS, although that’s not platform-agnostic.

I like the Wayland support from KDE Plasma for things like HDR and Freesync. If you don’t need advanced stuff like that then it’s preference really, Cinnamon would probably be my second choice.

Was into Dogecoin for the meme in high school, haven’t touched crypto in years but now I’ve become too attached to my background to change it.

There’s browser extensions for it
