Battle hardened > new
Unless the new has a killer feature set worth the trade off in potential bugs
Looks great I’ll have to give it a spin
This feels like it was written by someone who hasn’t done sysadmin of a Windows network in a long time. Everything is online and is almost always one click now. Provisioning, removing permissions, updating email filters, adding users. Each item is so much easier now than it used to be. I loving running my PopOs install but let’s not pretend that SysAdmin is the 90s nightmare it once was.
Very true. Also the degradation due to installed programs hasn’t been a thing for some time. Even if something does happen you can refresh without losing any data very easily these days.
VNC would not work for your needs.
I’ve had success in this set up using TeamViewer (over internet) or No machine (local network).
Firefox + ublock origin
This poll kind of sucks for data gathering. You ask two different questions but there’s only one set of answers. Even the first question alone asks if we use and/or require, which should be separate.
To answer though: I use my headphone adapter whenever I travel but don’t have a regular headphone jack. A jack is not absolutely required for me to purchase a phone but the adapter is.
Point 4 is only true if you buy a pre built system. If you install the OS yourself there is very little pre installed.
This has got to be bait from that user. The third screen is like the keyboard screen. What the heck are they even talking about. 36 hours to still be in the first three screens.
Also in the beginning he wishes he would wake up and his whole family would be gone. He wakes up and thinks his wish came true. He tells “Santa” later in that he wishes they would come back.
Love Linux but that’s mostly steam deck pumping up numbers. Look at year over year desktop usage and it’s not spiking even though it would be cool if it did.
There’s nothing wrong with being smart. It’s the smugness that is annoying and that’s what this whole thing is about.
If you aren’t one of those people than that’s great and you shouldn’t be bullied.
For me the meme is that most of these are the very tip of the philosophy and thinking iceberg. And that’s fine. What’s not fine is taking those basic concepts and trying to use them as defeaters for everything. I think this is what it’s poking fun at.
No tech literacy is nice but the user experience of communities when first joining Lemmy needs a lot of work.
First you have to choose an instance and no context is given. What’s the difference between x, y, and z? It’s federated so it seems easy to dismiss but we’re asking users to choose something with no help at all before doing anything else.
If commenters link directly to a community and don’t use a shared link, it is very confusing why it looks like you are signed out and can’t subscribe. This took me a bit to figure out and I have to either manually adjust the url to fit my instance or search for it which can be unreliable.
Duplicate community names across multiple instances is also confusing, although I welcome the multiple choice nature of it. But to a new user it can be confusing as to which is the “right” choice. Content moderation varies across the instances too.
I love Lemmy and once I figured it out I found it pretty easy. But let’s stop pretending that this site is so easy to use. There are quite a few user experiences that could be smoothed out with just a little bit of help text or additional context.
Or I could install Voyager and have a better user experience in 5 seconds. I love Firefox but the mobile experience is highly dependent on the care a site puts into their mobile site.
I haven’t seen this in a long time. Classic.
Maybe I’m crazy but they did teach me this in school. “This means so this operation until conditions are met”.
This is literally the same as me. I’m trying to contribute to niche communities here to help drive engagement.
I love the confidence here after stating you don’t use Twitch. Twitch changed the way they deliver in stream ads, it’s much more difficult to block now because it comes in as part of the video stream and not something added on top.
