  • This isn’t specific to Linux necessarily, but the best free fonts I like the most that I always install regardless of OS are:

    • DejaVu (included by default in a lot of Linux distros but not in Windows)
    • EB Garamond (a font intended to replicate Garamond but with the Open Font License)
    • Inconsolata (a font intended to replicate Consolas but with the Open Font License)
    • Noto (also included by default on a lot of Linuxes but not on Windows)
    • Vollkorn





  • Yeah, I’d agree about the VPN app too. ProtonVPN is absolutely fantastic…until you get to the Linux app.

    Oh good gods the Linux app. T_T

    “[P]acked with advanced features” my ass! And, yes, they do indeed use that phrase—multiple times—on the product page for the Linux application: No port forwarding, no Secure Core, no profiles (they actually lie about that by showing profiles in an image), no Wireguard support, and oh god it’s actually slower than the Windows counterpart.

    This is about their Linux GUI app, mind you; I can’t speak to their CLI app. Contrary to the popular misconception, not every Linux user likes to use the command line for absolutely everything (though I do love me some terminal shit lol don’t get me wrong).
