fuck, this is accurate. i recognized myself in everything you wrote. (age 50ies)

Switched to Niagara after Nova was bought off, but lately using the KISS launcher which does the job similar to Niagara when configured, and it’s FOSS.

Lawnchair is quite basic.

same here. few years ago ditched the nvidia card for amd and made my life rasier. wayland on fedora all the way, no issues. but i guess i’m completely different type of user.

I can totally feel that sudden clot in the gut the moment you realize on which drive the action is happening, just by reading this.

try to install FossifyOrg gallery and dialer via obtainium who pulls releases directly off github.

dialer app is released too.

there are forks of code before the sellout and the releases are already out. use fdroid or obtainium. https://github.com/fossifyorg/

commodore 64 with tape drive. later i got 5.25 floppy drive for it, which was the size of C64 itself.

then amiga, which i sold later to get money for my first intel/dos based pc (486dx2), but i regret selling that amiga to this day.

same thing happened to me. talked about very specific health-related topic, didn’t googled it or anything, the next day instagram came up with ads for the very same specific health subject.

for a start, you can check instagram’s permissions (and facebook of you use it, it’s meta too) and disable access to microphone.

however, that leaves whatsapp which is also meta and mic is more of a neccesity than insta/fb, but in my case, haven’t seen weird ads for subjects i didn’t typed into any devices since i disabled insta mic access.

Dimebag Darrell.

their news subdomain is having problems with cloudflare in past few days.

thanks, ordered!

i welcome merging two triple-dot menus into one, according to screenshots.

laughing in firefoxian.

card almost exclusively. local bakery or similar small shops doesnt work with cards and only do cash, so sometimes i have to work that way, but otherwise its card only.

welcome back. not all but most of us had moment in time when something was trigger to return back to firefox, making it the new browsing-home and enjoying it since.

word was that most of other instances on .ml top level domain had free domains, which the government took away, while lemmy.ml was paid domain and not a free one, so it’s still alive. but we’ll see.

in worst case they will migrate current server and config to another domain.

habit and practice. op himself said he believes gimp can do wonders, but he’s migrating from adobe and is accustomed to photoshop’s shortcuts, ui and workflow.

imho, people go wrong expecting same experience in different application. yes, gimp works very differently but when migrating, one should count on different ui and logic. afterall, ps also have learning curve in the start and none complains.

it’s similar to users migrating from windows to linux, expecting same windows ui and workflow, blaming linux bad.

some people just like to “know the secret meaning that you dont know but im gonna tell ya”. if youtu.be wouldn’t be on their likening, the .be domain could easily disclose as butt-eating or whatever two word combination would go along as “meaningful” to smear.
