How would you feel if I took it from you?

Correction: How do I take it from you?

I think it's time we move from threats to actions.

Yeah, but it's not a new war. It's an eternal war, and when those on top push too much, we push back. We call those stages revolutions, and maybe it's time to remind those on top that when a revolution happens, their heads get separated from their bodies. So either give us back some freedoms, or blood will be spilt. And it won't be our blood.

I'd love to use Pixelfed but as a user that looks at stuff instead of posting.

But there is no good option for a server. I'd want something nearby because speed, but my only options are (UK): A Scottish instance that will delete any accounts which haven't posted in more than 30 days, a furry instance in the UK, and an adult instance in the Netherlands.

So I'll pass until there's a good instance.

There was a period where I was testing my laptop's hibernation so I got uptime to around 30 days.

But now, The highest uptime I can reach is around 2-3 days if I forget to turn it off and leave it either plugged in or on a high battery so it lasts until the next day.

I can see where you're coming from because of outdated libraries and flatpak sandboxing not really being a thing (it's an illusion, really) but you can't deny that this is the direction we're moving in, and we need to get flatpak sandboxing and permissions right, to ensure a proper base level of security.

For those unaware:

  • Many flatpaks use older, outdated, or end-of-life libraries

  • Flatpak permissions are messed up because most applications ask to bypass the sandbox at install-time

It's not every day that you see actually useful applications of AI, but this might be one.

I get where you're coming from but I wish apps on GNOME could look uniform even without everyone kneeling to libadwaita, and we could just get uniform theming on all DEs.

GNOME.

Specifically their decisions on CSD over SSD (client and server side decorations)

I haven't really had any other dogmatic issues with projects.

The issue with that approach for the desktop is everyone will just move to other OS-es.

When Microsoft does it, you live with it cuz you have no choice.

This might be the first time that I genuinely like how a Catppuccin colour scheme turned out.

Well done! It looks... well... awesome.

(Great, now I'm stuck dreaming of AwesomeWM on Wayland again)

Yeah, I've had a developer tell me that they've done most of the beta milestone already. There will be an Alpha 6, however, so the absolute earliest we could see Beta 1 is end of February, assuming Alpha 6 releases end of January, and they move into Beta after that with no delays.
