It was good of you for trying. I did almost the same thing, except once I had an account on my little server, I started finding interesting people right away on the explore tab of the app. I followed them, and followed the people they boosted, and generally had a great experience. It sounds like it just isn't for everyone and that's ok. It will just keep growing slowly on its own.

Risks of a hidden backdoor or hidden risks of a back door? I hate headlines like this.

Very similar to you except I started out on the Lemmy app and Lemmy.ml before finding blahaj :)

My partner used to request being choked but never asked to choke me.I really didn't like doing it and she stopped asking Thankfully

A lot of poop is dead bacteria by volume.

Can't everybody stick their tongue to the base of the nasal cavity? My tongue just can't go in.

I am a sweet summer child so I didn't think that people have a second set of wheels at their home in a garage. That makes sense though, if you have the space for it.

I just have all season tires and one set of wheels, and that's all I realistically need around here.

I'd like to watch it and I usually like their stuff. I just haven't taken the plunge yet.

Nice. I thought tires might need some kind of sealant inside, but glad to know that you don't need that.

I don't agree with a lot of this, but I can't reply a point by point here. The main thing I'll say is that Clinton wouldn't have defunded the pandemic response team before a pandemic and certainly would have set a better example wearing masks than Trump did.

The country would always have been divided about the COVID response, but Trump followed his base and furthered the divisions.

I think if it is a nazi clock, if you don't criticize that fact when you mention the correct time, that is tacit support.

ESPECIALLY if, when people tell you, "don't you know that's a Nazi clock?" You double down and refuse to apologize.

I agree with you I think that this is a very small issue and on the whole proton's actions have been trustworthy but I would be lying if I said it didn't shake my confidence in them as a company.

That ain't no crime

 

So October is coming, and this is as good a time as any to switch to linux, but it is somewhat of an overwhelming task. I'm already used to desktop linux, but I am NOT good at migrating apps and settings and stuff. So I'll have some blindspots. I thought perhaps we could come up with some kind of collaborative outline for how to do it. Here are my ideas.

  • Make backups of all data.
  • Install linux as a dual boot / new machine.
  • Troubleshoot any hardware / software issues.
  • Make some lists on windows of apps
    -- Apps you absolutely need to have / replace
    -- Apps that would be nice to have / replace
    -- Apps that you don't need to migrate over.
  • Migrate user data, files, etc., to linux
  • Install apps on linux
  • For each app on the lists
    -- export settings and data from windows
    -- import settings and data into linux

At each step along the way, you can check things off the list.

Not everyone can switch to linux, but for those who want to, would this be a good procedure? What would you add to it?
