Linux market share passes 4% for first time (arstechnica.com)

We see the nearly 33-year-old OS’s market share growing 31.3 percent from June 2023, when we last reported on Linux market share, to February. Since June, Linux usage has mostly increased gradually. Overall, there’s been a big leap in usage compared to five years ago. In February 2019, Linux was reportedly on 1.58 percent of...

Mio,

As long as you can’t see Linux machines in normal computer stores it will not happen. Users never get the opportunity to experience it. Today there is no killer feature really like the other OS have.

Mio,

Not so easy. Look at how often they have to redo the startmenu.

Mio,

I see it like thank you that i don’t have to go to Mozilla website and download the installer. So much time saved, and it only takes like 5 second without manually doing anything. On Linux i saw please restart Firefox tab and clicked it. No problem. I got the update fast.

Mio,

Thank you for all this time. I still use it today, along with pidgin.

Mio,

It is hard without a transition period. Sometimes you have to do work stuff on your computer.

For me it is Visual Studio that holds me back. Maybe Microsoft Teams as well. Yes, work.

Since I am a power user it will take. Especially now Wayland is very much work in progress. I have some problem with keyboard bindings, text expander. Pidgin and Hexchat works but thinks they are located left top for right click on tray icon.

Mio,

I actually feel bad for you using Linux before most stuff had measured. Font anti aliasing, font name, screen tearing, drivers, flatpaks etc.

Mio,

The sad truth is how brained washed and suppressed the people are in Russia. Things could be much better if that was not the case. Any idea on how to let them free?

Mio,

Some scenarios are useful, but the AI has to read it all to find that. It just need to know as much as possible in order to build a profile.

The only problem is that it is not limited to only you that can read the profile. You have no control of the data is stored.

Mio,

I don’t get WHY I have to choose. Default should be reject all. If there is no reject then just accept it. How hard can this be to get on the Internet?

I hate the cookie popup.

Mio,

Think about it like walking into a store, but before you enter you have to agree to the tos and sign. You see how bad that would be to the user experience. Today I believe the store can track you as much as they want to. There is no opt out.

Mio,

Reason?

  1. Firefox does not support Microsoft Teams
  2. Microsoft disabled support for Firefox
  3. Problem for a specific computer/account
Mio,

Forbid whatever shell is selling. Only except might be is if it saves life and there is no good alternative. Wait - did I just solve climate change?

Mio,

Real buttons that you can feel. Hence could use them without looking at the screen.

Mio,

God Jul. Tack för att ni finns Feddit.nu

Mio,

Because there is no native gui. For most things to configure in Linux there is a webui but not a simple Gui built in. Configuration files like squid.conf smb.conf nginx.com… then we have logs but here I think I never checked for a Gui, does it work for remote ssh easily? Can you restart service easy?

Mio,

That is something that should be possible: Choosing a backup sync server that have my data(profile). I hope they implement that

Ending support for Windows 10 could send 240 million computers to the landfill. Why not install Linux on them? (gadgettendency.com)

With support ending for Windows 10, the most popular desktop operating system in the world currently, possibly 240 million pcs may be sent to the landfill. This is mostly due to Windows 11’s exorbitant requirements. This will most likely result in many pcs being immediately outdated, and prone to viruses. GNU/Linux may be...

Mio,

I think Microsoft should actually be forced to either extend support or give the user one option to be secured. With the later I mean pay for license or click here to automatically choose a Linux distro that the user will be migrated to. It could be Mint or one of MS own Linux distribution with OneDrive preinstalled and links to Office 365 online word. Even install Android could be one option.

This is better than getting all the devices on the landfill.

Remember that 99% don’t know what to do with their computer or are lazy. One easy fix should be available.

Mio,

It probably is. But MS choose how they want to keep the control of the users. But just leaving them like this is just bad. I feel EU should force them to give a solution since the computer came with Windows so it is their responsibility.

One alternative is to give them Chrome OS, or they might prefer building their of version of it.

Today I see a computer as end of life when it is to slow to view webpages. Often like when it is to little RAM available or the CPU is really too slow. Then I think Microsoft could stop caring about it.

Mio,

Yes, many other products as well. Not sure why there are no regulations regarding e waste.

Mio,

I don’t think they would do Linux. Better if they did a stripped down version of their OS that can run like Chrome OS. Secured with a web browser. Little maintenance as so much has been removed.

Mio,

I can see that threads.net may harm the Fediverse. But, there might be some people that don’t like the threads client and want to use the fediverse to interact with them. This will divide us. Also, trying to have a standard were threads.net is blocked is very hard to spread. Maybe has to be default on the server side, or even better, a subscription.

Varningen: COP28 är på gränsen till ett misslyckande – nytt utkast väntar (www.nyteknik.se) Swedish

En dödsdom mot sårbara önationer och ett klimatmöte på väg mot fullständigt misslyckande. Urvattnade formuleringar om framtiden för fossila bränslen som värmer planeten har lett till ilska på klimatmötet COP28 i Dubai....

Mio,

Ja, vi måste ta tag i problemet nu med oljan

Mio,

Would it help if they could check if the account is older than one month?

Mio,

Can someone please explain to me why they can’t create the account even if it is used as disposable? Storing one text file with the login on their side does not cost much storage at all.

Mio,

It might also be harder to recover picies if the hard drive fail partially. However, many use SSD now, might be a different story there.
