You make a compelling case, I'll give it a rewatch.

I never have. I guess I don't understand the point of deleting your account? I have no issues with telling people my name and location. I live in Dallas, Tx and my name is Danny. I'll even meet up with you and buy you a beer.

Thanks, I want to see lemmy succeed, even if my own communities don't get a lot of engagement that's alright. I hope for this to be a platform that people can come to for info and don't have to worry about ads, data collection, privacy nightmares, etc. Similar to the internet of old.

A powered hub is an option, but you have to make sure it has video passthrough, and these aren't common.

I learned quickly that installing apps the traditional way causes pretty major instability. You're basically rebasing the entire OS via ostree to install one application. After my second nuke and pave due to updates no longer working from me rebasing I took the time to learn toolbox so if a flatpak is not available I can still use an application (containerized) without altering the OS. Toolbox by default pulls in another Fedora install as the app base. I recommend using Alpine instead, much smaller and lighter.

I guess the moral of the story is learn to install applications the correct way, or just don't use an immutable OS

I've been using Kinoite for a couple of years now on my Thinkpad. What would you like to know?

It's a lesser known company and somewhat pricey, but my friend who I trust has given his a very glowing review. He has the 14" and is actually planning to give it to his gf and buy the 16" once they become available.

Can't say I agree with the entire list, but there's a few that I haven't seen yet that I'll have to check out.

I feel your frustration. This led to me just using Strava for tracking, Gymrun for routine, and syncing to Samsung Health later.

This would be perfect for a BBS.
