The truth about linux having 15% market share in India.

I am from india. These numbers are inflated due to our population and government and health sector office pc using linux (ubuntu). These office pcs just require a chrome browser and all the work is done on the browser Nobody here cares what os they use in their office pc. I don’t see anyone here switching to linux on their...

Loucypher,

It is not Linux per se lacking support. This is due to those that make apps/games. And, in fairness, to the fact that dev in Linux has been a bit of a mess in the last few years, with all the Wayland & o shananigans

Loucypher,

You should have tried LMDE. That is the best way to get Debian and also ease of install

Loucypher,

I have LDME on an 2012 Air and, oh boy, it is flawless. Works straight out of the box

Loucypher, (edited )

Yeah but the current version is based on Bookworm. In other words a lot of drivers are included on it and it is really plug and play. I have I installed it on a 2012 Air and everything just worked out of the box

Loucypher,

Any chromebox can be used for this. You can grab one for cheap from businesses that have decommissioned them

Loucypher,

Huh actually yes, I have one with TrueNAS on and have created a couple of Zvol connected over USB. It is not like having a big server but it does the job while using little power

Loucypher,

With all the SEO garbage, are G**gle results still relevant? I haven’t used it in years for anything serious.

Loucypher,

Not sure why are you being downvoted. Brave search is actually pretty good

I am genuinely horrified to see how much data google collected from me

I created a google takeout and in that zip file I found some files containing a ton of data about me. It has logged every single page I visited while using the google search engine and chrome browser. It even logged every single time I opened an app on my old android phone. It even has VOICE RECORDINGS of me and a log of every...

Loucypher,

Merci

Loucypher,

And then you have NomadBSD if you need an OS in a usb stick :)

Loucypher,

Nice! I remember using an extension for that back in the day

Loucypher,

Isn’t that also the case for Flatpacks?

Loucypher,

Oh you mean for command line applications, yes, Flatpacks cannot do that yet. Personally I manually enable Snaps in the distros I use, as some apps only exist there, but have been orienting myself where I can limit the exposure to only the packages I want.

LMDE just rocks (lemmy.ml)

I have been testing for a few weeks Mint, originally started on 21.2 on an old 2012 MacBook Air… the OS was flying! As I was looking at this now 10 years old machine, now back to usable speed again I was pleasantly surprised. On my desktop was still running Fedora that is just a bit more shiny and has the latest “stable”...

Loucypher,

Any thing you miss from Mint Ubuntu edition?
