  • Linux users, what desktop environment do you use?
  • How is it? I've often thought about trying it out. I'm on Plasma 5, but I've never loved Plasma like I loved KDE 3.6. I felt like KDE 4 was a huge regression and didn't recover for years. Still hasn't, really.

  • Which VPN Providers Really Take Privacy Seriously in 2023? * TorrentFreak
  • I've used them for well over ten years at this point. Highly recommended from me too.

    They used to be one of the more commonly recommended services a few years ago, but they seem to have sort-of slipped off most people's radar. I'm not sure why.

  • Is anybody else more active here then they were on Reddit?
  • Definitely.

    For example, I've just written and posted a comment in this very thread. That's more than I'd ever do in a thread like this on Reddit.

    Can Communities be Made Private?

    I'd like to set up and federate an instance of Lemmy with the purpose of inviting friends and family. I imagine that they'd appreciate having spaces limited to family members where posting information or photos wouldn't erode their anonymity elsewhere in the fediverse.

    Is there a way to make some communities private so that only those who are invited can view or post within them?

    When searching, I only see one mention of private communities as a feature that isn't finished. But, that post appears to be 3 years old.

    Thanks so much! I'm really enjoying the community here.
