Shit, just linux.

Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though… go nuts

What's the highest # of tabs you've opened while troubleshooting something? (linux or not linux related) (lemmy.world)

Linux undoubtedly requires lots of troubleshooting and searching. Lately I’ve been spending hours (and still aren’t done with) setting up a Windows VM with good graphics support on NixOS. I’ve opened >300 tabs as counted with a browser addon, having looked up stuff like "best way to install Windows VM on linux with , “best VM software for linux”, and more specific things like how to setup WinApps, but I’ve been told that it has very poor graphics performance, since it doesn’t include anything to make it better, so now I’m torturing myself trying to get Looking Glass to work. I opened an feature request today to make better support for NixOS but it was closed stating that documentation is for deb-based distros and “a niche distro such as NixOS”, RIP.

Like 35ish over 4 windows.

When I think I am going on a related tangent I will pop the search into its own window to not clutter the main one with side searches.
