I would argue:

2022 was the year of the Linux Handheld 2026 will be the year of the Linux Console (putting my hopes on SteamMachine)

Now the year of the Linux Desktop is a finicky definition by tradition. To me its a personal distinction. Whenever Linux replaced* your previous desktop OS is YOUR year of the Linux Desktop.

* replaced is also not discreet but more of when you felt you replaced your Desktop

Naja die Kontokündigung der Roten Hilfe kam am 23. das sollte wohl im Weihnachtstrubel untergehen und macht's wahrscheinlich auch schwer zu reagieren aber ich bin mir sicher ein praktische Reaktion (über ein Statement hinaus) wird bald kommen. GLS Kundinnen und Genossenschaftsmitgliederinnen organisieren sich bereits, da wird es sicher zu entsprechenden Reaktionen kommen.

And around here a lot of leftist spaces enable you to have fun while spending little to nothing. Dirty punk concerts for a low cover charge and beer almost as cheap as in the store. And most of not all of those prices are "pay less if you can't afford it".

Other than that if agree with other commenters. Knowing spaces/people to hang at/with. I'm perfectly fine spending time in my one bedroom if I'm not alone all the time there so having some friends over, even if it might be crammed, and just shooting the shit is a simple and affordable way to have a good time

Let me tell you:

I've been using Linux exclusively since ~2010 and moved my mum over back when XP got canned. Printers always have been and still are the bane of my existence. From what I know from other people working in IT printers are always bad, however of course the driver support situation in Linux is so much worse. My mum used to have a Samsung mfp that would print in Linux (most of the time) but I could not for the life of me figure out how to get it to scan reliably. In the end I've set her up with a dual boot with a simple "click here to switch to Windows" button so she could scan in there (saving the scans to a NAS)

From my experience printers mostly either work or don't work in Linux. If you are looking for a new printer I've only had food experiences with Brother. If you already have a printer and it's not working right I can recommend sxouring through forums for that one wisdom of the ancients that can help (and possibly sacrificing a goat)

I bow also have a Canon printer (it was a gift) and with the official Linux drivers it worked for years. Recently it just wouldn't print from Linux anymore till I switched the drivers to the generic "Guteprint" now it's printing fine again ...

Tl;dr: printers are evil and Linux drivers are sometimes making them worse

The [...] train [...] left Sankt Poelten on time but arrived in Vienna with a seven minute delay

They had a 7 minute delay after performing an emergency stop and pulling someone inside.

Deutsche Bahn trains are 7 minutes delayed if everything works as planned

My first thought seeing this headline was "who cares I'm using Linux anyway" ... My second thought was "Well I'm probably gonna start working in a mixed environment again soon and I'll be the one who'll have to disable Recall for the Users ... So good to know

I'm biased, but Type F

Yup that's my way to go.

Revanced on my phone for watching quick videos/on the go and SmartTube on the TV. If I find a longer video to watch I usually start it in Revanced and then play it from history in SmartTube

Oh no! I'd have to leave the room for that. I cringe way to hard every time anyone (or even I myself) gets a window into option 1.5 it feels like things are about to break very bad.

Started using (k)Ubuntu around 08.04. so I vaguely remember that but the 10.04-12.04 backgrounds really brought back memories

You know who used to do that? Microsoft Teams. I would take photos with my phone and upload them via Teams, Teams would display them just fine but saving them teams would name them .png (even though they were jpeg) and I couldn't open them with the gnome image viewer (this is also how I found out that the image viewer prioritizes extension over magic byte (which seems stupid to me).
