YSK: If the frontpage constantly looks like the same 5 - 8 posts, try sorting by "Hot".

Jump

  • And if you get sick of seeing the same post multiple times on the page, give PieFed a go. It stacks the multiple comments under the one item instead.

    • What features are missing from piefed, or, why aren't we reccommending piefed instead of lemmy?

    Jump

  • Looks like preferred is invite only at this time.

    "Invite code (see post on flagship instance)"

    Jump

  • For me..

    Because the PWA font is too small and can't be enlarged.

    Because there's no 'back to top' button so have to kill the app to refresh.

    Because there's no app.

    But sometimes I use it anyway because the combining of articles is so much better than seeing the same article three or four times in a row in Voyager.

  • I thought it was more 'up and down' :)

    Can people see what groups you subscribe to on Lemmy?

    • Non-white Americans, do you feel safe traveling to or through a republican jurisdiction? (If you are white: does your non-white friends feel safe traveling to or through a republican jurisdiction?)

  • Or just the wrong hole at the wrong time.

    • YSK that a new internet/account bypass during Windows 11 installs already exists. Here is a 7 step guide.

    Jump

  • Thanks. Handy to know.

    • LibreOffice downloads on the rise as users look to avoid subscription costs | The free open-source Microsoft Office alternative is being downloaded by nearly 1 million users a week

    Jump

  • Is it the best free option? It works fairly well although I can still kill it sometimes.

    I know there's a few other alternatives like OnlyOffice, wps office etc but these might be freemium.

    • How likely is the US government going to identify and arrest every online user who have disagreed with the current administration?

    Jump

  • I'm not going to travel to the US just in case they triangulate my ID. Haven't said anything terribly bad about USA but still, why risk it.

    • I see these MFs on a daily basis

    Jump

  • Good point.

    Mint wouldn't run on my other Asus laptop which is why I ended up on Debian. I think it was a discrete GPU issue booting to a black screen.

    I know most Linux users probably wouldn't want Chrome anyway, but since it's the most popular browser and this post is discussing the greater populace, I think it was a valid point - same as how a n00b booting to a black screen is an issue.

    Having to fetch gnome tweaks to get a right click on a trackpad is another - that might just be a Debian thing.

    • .world censorship?

    Jump

  • Agreed. Just put Debian on a 17" i7 Asus laptop tonight as win11 didn't like the track pad or the display adapter.

    To get Chrome on, had to download a deb file, then manually open it with a right click and choose software installer since it wanted to open an archive instead.

    Just little things like that are tedious for the n00b.

    • Starlink is now accessible across the White House campus, which was already served by fiber cable, after service was “donated”, as some cite security concerns.

    Jump

  • Run everything through a VPN tunnel instead?

    • What's the best purchase under 50 dollars you've ever made?

    Jump

  • Long ago, a $40 Malvern Star road bike. Ran a business from it for a few years in the outback.

    More recently an old Convair evaporative air con second hand so my dog can keep cool on the back seat while I'm working nearby. (Had to buy a power pack thinggie for a lot more money to run it though.)

    • A few people have been recommending me Cassandra, a German show about a home automation system going rogue. Have you watched it?

    Jump

  • I remember her from Red Dwarf.
