I just switched from linux mint to lmde 6 as well and it does feel very much the same cinnamon-y DE I left. The only difference so far is I had to install nvidia drivers myself as it doesn’t seem to come with a driver manager like mint did. I’ve gotten everything else I used so far set up fine but… I guess I haven’t tried gaming yet which I guess might be important to check out, will have to soon

I would sort of expect it to be the stuff we struggle to get rid of, like fungi and weeds. So maybe mushrooms and dandelions? This is just a wild guess, and obviously you couldn’t live off them forever.

Or am I missing something?

I think the only distinguishing factor is to target, it must gather data. So that means your activity is being tracked, stored, and shared with third parties. Of course for some people this will matter more than to others, but for those privacy focused you now know for certain they are storing data on you, potentially making money off of selling it, with no way to opt out.

Maybe it’s a focal length difference? Example

Definitely curious to see if we experience waves similar to how mastodon does every time elon says something stupid. I’m not sure we will, though. With the entire reddit gold thing I was expecting people to throw their arms up about the reversal of stuff people paid money for but it seems like they just accepted it and moved on. Perhaps the people that remain will stay there no matter what. Regardless I think how things are going here are still promising.

I bounced to mint cinnamon as soon as this was announced. I miiggghhhtttt switch to arch as cinnamon hasn’t quite made me feel like I’m able to do what I want, but I plan to at least try LMDE before that

I have a metal coffee table that I tap every time I get up. Maybe something similar if not that, like an end table next to your couch?

The latest drivers on mint, 535, cause flickering on my monitors. There are a bunch of posts about this; when I installed them when they came out my screens went black and never recovered, had to power off manually, and then the top part of my monitors would just flicker every 15-30 seconds. I rolled back to 525, and now that it had been a couple months I had just tried to upgrade again recently but the problem remains, black screen, reboot, flickering.

I admittedly don’t follow mastodon development much but wonder if there are plans to allow switching it out. I know firefish allows meilisearch which I’ve read is far more efficient
