They do make some strange choices. But yeah, I agree. Also, on Gnome, everything else feels a bit rough around the edges.

Isn’t adding repos considered creating a FrankenDebian?

How does Distrobox work? Is it as simple a

$ distrobox install app $ app

And it runs fine ?

Mlem looks the best but it feels choppy as hell. So I’m using voyager instead still quite good and runs smooth.

Hm. Not sure if it’s because I’ve stuck with gnome and kde. But both definitely freeze often during high I/o or intense processing times.

On multiple machines and multiple distros. It’s one of the most annoying things about it really.

Personal stuff is mostly on my phone. And I’ll just sync to the computer what’s needed.

All my code and projects are on GitHub/codeberg.

All my personal info and photos are on proton drive.

If Linux shits itself (and it does often) who cares. I can have it up and running again in a fresh install in ten minutes.

Tried to switch to graphene for a bit. Way too many apps don't work in it.

Most of the issue is that they're unreliable. Sometimes the app will work. Sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes you have to fiddle blindly with flatseal settings, which ones? Who knows? Guessing is part of the fun.

It'd be a great thing if it just worked.

I'm halfway through the book and rustlings and it's... Awkward so far.

Is it possible to become as productive with rust as one is with higher level languages?

Or should I stick to gc languages for domains where gcs make sense.

I was kinda hoping to make rust be my go to language for general purpose stuff.

Awesome. I'll give mailsprint a try, thanks!

Currently trying otf-monaspace though and I quite like it.

Merge is love merge is life, get the hell out of here with that rebase witchcraft.

I tried really hard for about a year to use gnome without extensions.

I'd say at best in the end it wasn't annoying me too much.

Recently tried dash to panel again and yeah. I'm not going back.

I do not understand how people manage multiple programs open without a tray. Do they just memorize in what workspace everything is at all times ?

Hopefully not asphyxiation.

It's just time. Might suck for a little time or a long time though.

If you want to make it suck for as little as possible just go no contact and don't snoop. It really is as simple as that. Although I'm very aware it's a hard thing to do.

Sorry this happened to ya. Hang on.

I'll try to pick up that habit. Thank you. That's a good suggestion.

Thank you for the comment I added he/him to my bio. Not sure if it's in the right place.

he and him what you want in those positions?

I had never stopped to think about this. I guess the answer in my partícular case is I literally don't care which ones they use. Hm. Not sure what that means.

Thank you for the detailed comment.
