Apparently, they're currently in the process of turning people's Manifest V2 extension off. They seem to be stretching it out over a few weeks to sidestep a shitstorm.
Afterwards, there will still be uBlock Origin Lite, but the dev didn't choose that name for funsies. It will be even worse at ad blocking, and be missing some important features like automatic block list updates and the element picker.
Oh, you don't have to always boot anew from the read-only snapshot.
When you're booted into the working read-only snapshot, run sudo snapper rollback and then do a normal reboot.
This will make that read-only snapshot your new (read-writable) system state. So, after doing this, your OS will be as if you never applied that update.
More info on that command: https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/archive/15.0/reference/html/book.opensuse.reference/cha.snapper.html#sec.snapper.snapshot-boot
Can't you roll back to a snapshot before the update that broke it? Then you can wait with updating for a week or two, in hopes that it gets fixed in the next Tumbleweed update...
Hmm, it's been a few years since I've run Fedora, but that's an experience also still stuck in my head from that time.
I always figured, Linux had just gotten better at that, because I switched to a more up-to-date distro afterwards, but in retrospect, it's not like Fedora is terribly out of date, so maybe that is just a weird configuration on Fedora...
I mean, I doubt Kate or Geany or Vim would've closed due to OOM, but sure...
Firefox unloads old tabs when restarting the browser, so most of those are more like temporary bookmarks.
Don't think I've ever seen someone open 300 tabs in one session or on Chromium...
If you've got specific accounts you want to follow, you can get an RSS feed containing their public posts.
In terms of native clients, the closest such feature I know of, is that Fedilab (for Android) can remember your position in the timeline, so that you can resume reading.
If you primarily use one timeline, then you wouldn't re-encounter already read posts, because they're in the past from the remembered position.
I have to say, though, that it's not the most reliable feature in the world...
To me, the toxic culture of Reddit is a dealbreaker. Over here, you've got some folks that came from Reddit and didn't quite get the memo that they don't need to enter into gladitorial combat anymore when they disagree with someone, but overall, it's a lot more relaxed.
I guess, it becomes more unusual when you're old enough to buy your own candy. At that point, if you don't put effort in, it might come off to some neighbors like you're freeloading.
But as others said, if you put on a costume and you're clearly enjoying the process, maybe you even make it a friend group activity, then it's easy to believe that you're doing it for fun. It's not like you'd get rich off of freeloading candy in any scenario anyways.
Ah, interesting. In my current setup, I dump the auxilliary files into a folder above the repo, but it can certainly make it a bit messy to find the repo in there then...
I'd say, I'm primarily a very low volume gamer, so I don't play a lot of games, and if I do, I don't play them for long. And that certainly makes it easy to look at the news of a game releasing and to think, yeah, that's probably neat, but if I'm buying another game then it'd be Undertale or Baba Is You or such, and it definitely doesn't look as neat as those...
