I use computers for a bit of entertainment, but I’ve taken a turn to rediscovering the internet, it took reddit going south for that to happen though. I’m actually reading these nicely written articles on the Geminisphere I think there’s too much on the internet now, its flooded with low quality stuff, I am finding the reason I came to the internet was the long well written dialogs!

You found what works best for you! Pretty silly to judge.

I prefer the open ecosystem too, its why I choose android.

This one had .zip and that’s why I choose it.

Couldn’t you just move to another lemmy instance? or host your own?

The only regular people I can think of are gamers and my mom but I would like the idea of PC’s returning to techie and specialized use cases

Stick too long, make shorter

True, I can go get it still from the aurora store.

I’m just baffled, why am I not free to install whatever crap I want onto my phone?

Usually I just go to the appstore on linux mint, kubuntu has a appstore called discover as for setting up a network drive, I have no idea so I asked meta.ai

Open the File Manager (Dolphin)
Click on Network in the left sidebar
Click on Add Network Folder
Select the type of network share (e.g., SMB/CIFS, NFS, etc.)
Enter the network drive's address (e.g., smb://username@server_ip_address/share_name)
Authenticate with your username and password (if required)
Click Add to mount the network drive

Honestly, tell me if asking AI helps you at all, because I got no idea if it’s hallucinating how it should be done.

Sounds good to me, never used kubuntu myself though.

Thanks for trying linux!

I don’t use pop os or gnome personally and I’m not part of any cult or whatever.

I found a accessibility setting that changes stuff to be white but I don’t think I got what you wanted 🥀

I know kde plasma has a white general look, and can be themed much more than gnome in pop os seems to be.

it also has 3 finger click in its setting under the touchpad option

Also, try Fedora 39 kde spin https://fedoraproject.org/spins/kde/ I mention this because fedora has the new linux tech in it so your laptop might behave better with this os.

Linux mint user here.

Sound works even better then windows, Printers needed terminal work to install, but forums were very helpful. https://safereddit.com/r/linux/comments/rpgn28/my_grandma_called_and_thanked_me_for_installing/

Nice! No trouble migration is based
