If I was goodlooking or a celeb, tiktok would be op, Druski was talking about how it is for him, and the algorithim is basically constantly showing him ppls hes interested in, and since he actually has the money and means to contact and meet them its been hella bad for his brain to know theirs always another options out there that tiktok can show him, that fits what he likes perfectly (more than he knows), because algorithim.
Frameworks cool if you can afford it, but if you want the best perfomance/deals, then laptops go on sale for half off or 70% off often, you just gotta check daily since they sell out within the day for those deals
Give yourself a month to look at deals, its around week 3 for me where I usually purchasep
I recentlly swapped to cachyos, works way better than windows, had hella driver issues on windows, I forgot and reinstalled my windows os (shrunken partition, just in case I need it) had the same issues.
All I’ve had to download is like two extensions in the package manager for the amd gpu to work in blender, everywhere else it workd well instantly (because of cachyos and all it installs)
I have an all amd alienware m17 r5 I got $2000 off at around 1200$ pretty fire, 6850mxt = 3080 laptop, ive had no issues running most things, msfs needs hella tweaking on windows but past that even vr stuff mostly works fine
Now ppl are gonna think I switched because of this start indian hate mf
Hyprland is technically more customizable, id check out the preconfigs, its more annoying to customize but some of those preconfigs have a lot of different options to start off
No added extensions, just default, id go with plasma, with extensions right now daily use Gnome (but without extensions its bland af, it really needs them and I wish it had more)
Gnome by default isn’t customizable, you have to install and turn extensions on, but its as simple as toggling on chrome addons, you goto the extension store and grab what you want, the store could be better usability wise, hate the ui, flathub is like the only usable ui for a store on linux, insane how its all stuck 20 years backwards. (tho I kinda like it lol)
I think gnome just feels good and is the most usable, but thats because I feel the constant need to tinker with plasma, while with gnome I just set my extensions on, tweak them a little maybe once if they have settings and don’t think about it again. It only takes a few to get gnome feeling personalized and it just works well. Plasma feels better swapping from windows, but gnome feels more like a different modern os on par with windows/mac but more minimalist.
I wish plasma was slightly less buggy, anytime I mess with a panel I have to clone a backup just in case it tweaks out and I need to delete it.
Just swapped to linux and flathub has an app for reposting reddit images to lemmy “reddy”
Runtipi plus any vps, easy to setup and has gotosocial (stays more up to date) , or yunohost is easier with more options
I got into webhosting rabbithole like a month ago if it isnt obvious, those are the best deals ive found, hetzner, 5$ a month, pay by the hour, is my favorite for testing stuff for cheap if you remember to delete it, invoiced 3rd of the month
or free oracle vps , domain is around 12$ a year but porkbun has most domains for half off first year or less, .ing is half off, .buzz is like 1$
The annual deals good for just not worrying about paying for it and forgetting about it sometimes
racknerd 60$ a year 3core 6gb ram can run a lot, littlecreekhosting 3.50 a month 4core 8gb or 7 amonth 8core 16 (you gotta comment on their post on low end talk for littlecreek or you get half ram)
Its no fun, vps are cheap, you can get racknerd 60$ a year 3 core 6gb, run pleroma or sharkey, slightly funner, or friendica/lemmy, most things are more fun to host but you could prob run goto social on a 12$ year vps to be fair
Daima dubs getting entertaining, solo levelings alright (better than webtoon), mythic quests last episode was mid, I forget the rest right now
If you want lemmy instances to be better off reduce the load, make your own or join a less popular one, joining a bigger one isn’t a good thing (im a hypocrite, im on lemmee)
Lot of terrible ideas here, if any of them are implemented lemmy loses a lot if value, donation model works, if a server cant survive itll shutdown and well end up in a better situation since the whole point was to not have centralized servers. Mfs talking about adding ads when this platform barely provides value lol. Like are you serious, at least most platforms with ads developed their own platform and arent just launching someone elses work on a server
Thats prettt much all of what I needed to know, I see why they’re reccomended.
Not sure how to find filesharing irc networks
