Your voting system is broken. You can present yourself as a hero who is fighting against the system, but all you are doing is letting someone who will commit more atrocities into power.

Elect Harris. Protest peacefully. Put pressure on her that way.

One thing I heard from somewhere is to pick a random word. Then for each letter in it, think of a random animal. Then pick another random word and repeat.

Supposedly this mimics the brain activity during sleep and dreaming, which tricks your brain into actually sleeping. No idea if it’s effective or not though.

I tried Cosmic and quite liked it. Just waiting for them to add a gnome 2 style window list widget with the window names.

There is, but I use a hipster keyboard layout and they don’t support alternate keyboard layouts yet.

The lack of primary selection/middle click paste. I select text, try to paste it and then have to sheepishly go back and actually copy it for realsies.

I used to get annoyed at the lack of multiple workspaces, but since switching to a multi-monitor setup, I don’t really use multiple workspaces any more.

Cinnamon. Desktop environment peaked in the Windows XP/Gnome 2 days and everything else is just change for the shake of change. :C

My only annoyance is lack of Wayland support. Tried out cosmic, but it doesn’t have the Windows XP/Gnome 2 style window list.

Screenshot for anyone interested:

If there’s a post or something on another instance but not your one, you can enter the full URL into the search bar and it will fetch it and make it available on your instance (unless defeds get in the way).

Works on both Lemmy and Mastodon.

If it turns out to actually be a problem, people can just fork Linux itself.

Ooh, I love the simplicity of these designs. Feels very much like they could have developed organically over time.

I have a Fairphone 5. Maybe too expensive for what it is, but hopefully it doesn’t have a big evil annoying company behind it and it should hopefully last a while. Still running stock Android on it though, because I don’t want to lose Play Attestation or whatever it is called.
