Take a look at gobolinux. It changes the filesystem in interesting ways. All programs are in their own directories under /Programs.

I'm currently using Action Launcher. It's a pretty good replacement for Nova.

Meta (Facebook / Instagram) to move to a "Pay for your Rights" approach in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

I'm in the US, and I want this here. Not with that price, but I think that there should be an option.

Meta, Google, etc. should calculate how much revenue they could make from me, and then charge me that amount, or something like 10% more. If I pay it, they don't sell my data (I've bought an exclusive right to it). That way I'm either paying for the service by being the product, or by paying what they'd make from me. Seems fair.
