Hello fellow good street design enjoyer

Codeberg uses gitea

This feels like such a great step in the right direction. I Selfhost gitea, which also has this planned and is working on it, but it's taking a lot of time. I might consider switching to git lab if they are faster.

You're toxic. Windows is trash, but treating others bad means you're a bad person, regardless of which OS they use. Why do I even need to say this?

Is there a list on what data exactly got leaked, that wasn't public before?

It's about what software you install. Big commercial projects are ok, and anything that offers an MSI installer works too. But it gets really weird once you want to install something that does not offer a dedicated installer.

Instead of every program needing their own installer, there should be a central installer that can install most software.

On my Linux machines, installing things is a matter of a single command. The program downloads, installs, integrates the software of my choosing without me having to search the web for some installer (that could also be malware). If the thing I want only offers an executable, that works too, as I just put it in /use/local/bin.

Another thing is usage in the terminal. On windows, pretty much every program has its own folder. That sucks, because the terminal gets a list of executables depending on the PATH variable. That means I end up manually adding A LOT of folders to the PATH.

I really like your concept, sounds perfect.

The only thing to consider is that Lemmy does not exist in vacuum. Making the sibling system compatible with other Activity Pub systems would be useful.

We browsing is a bad example. We browsing just works on every OS. Games have gotten better of course, but it's still not at the real it just works level.

For me, the windows shenanigans start at installing new things.

Send them the GDPR horror letter

I agreed with the guy you answered, then I read your comment and I must admit that you're right.

I need to use windows at work and hate it every couple minutes, but it's simply true that I have to tinker around a lot with my Linux machines. I have to tinker more with my windows machine, but that's because I really dislike the windows way and want to do things like I do on my Linux systems.

I am still committed to the idea that Gnu/Linux is a vastly superior system compared to windows, especially so for devs, but it isn't always easy.

The viewpoint of just "using" a PC is something I've mostly lost as it seems.

Is windows really "easier" for non technical people? Or are they just used to it and switching would be too much effort?

BTW: As a dev that needs to use windows at work, 11 was a big upgrade for me. Feels more polished and has a better user experience for me. I think to myself "I hate w*ndows" slightly less every day.

Sounds like a great tool. I use yomichan to look up japanese I don't understand, wonder how these two compare.
