Hey fedi folks! I created a Lemmy account recently, and I'm looking forward to more #linux #foss content and engagement.

Please recommend communities to subscribe to - my preferred genres would be Linux, technology, FOSS, privacy, programming and newbie support forums (to offer help).
My lemmy feed feels stagnant, and I wanna see something lively over there.
Thanks!

Bottles has over 3 million installs, but donations average just €100/month, not even enough to cover our server infra 😭
Bottles Next is moving forward, but we need support to keep it alive and growing 🙈

Please, help us 🙏

PS. I am trying to restore access to the Bottles Mastodon account 🫠

What I love about @MichaelNROH's video(s) is how elegantly he explains #Linux for newbies - despite having used Arch for over 3 years, I'm able to appreciate his explanation of graphical ways to use Linux without needing the terminal

I leave it to #ThePrimeagen to blame https://youtu.be/ZH3iKbEiks0 #PewDiePie for having him converted into an  user, and admit "I was wrong"

Quite an achievement 🤪

What Felix is doing is showing the use and fun with everything #FOSS, all the things you can do yourself - if you want. And how it also can improve your everyday life.

That is what will make #YearOfLinux   happen sooner 🖖

I was wrong

I use and love wayland
I use wayland, makes no difference
I use wayland, it broke some of my stuff
I don't use wayland because I use X DE/distro

@nixCraft Microsoft has done more for the Linux market share than any technical advancement.

Good news! For the first time, #Linux desktop breaks through 5% share in USA OS market as per Statcounter https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/desktop/united-states-of-america

Oh, absolutely, Microsoft, please, by all means, continue with your grand experiments like Recall Spyware, deleting email accounts in far-flung corners of the globe or stealing data for AI training. Rest assured, these brilliant strategies will have absolutely no bearing on Win11 desktop adoption. None whatsoever. We thank you from Linux HQ. Lmao.
