I'm seeing this too, it's hard to tell if it's a Sync issue or defederated instances (Beehaw users?)

I'm not sure if I have bad luck but every time I've tried Ubuntu I've had stability issues. Constant crashes and things I've never run into in other distros.

It makes it hard for me to recommend it to new users.

I love Gnome. But I have a pretty simple workflow where I don't use many applications. Generally I have a browser and terminal open and that's it.

I do all my window management inside of Tmux, which is effectively my actual window manager.

I've tried KDE in the past but I've never liked how it feels like a stepping stone for the Windows interface -- not a huge fan of pullout menus. I've been using Linux exclusively for almost twenty years so I don't have any love for that UX.

I used to use a lot of simple/tiling window managers when I was younger and more patient, Gnome feels similar to those in how it has very few bells and whistles to get in your way.

If only maintaining extensions was easier, it feels like every major release breaks every extension for something stupid like renaming a constant. The Gnome team seems to put very little consideration into making the JS extension API stable.

Didn't that end up being illegal for them to do or something so they had to go back on the rule?

Edit: I only realize now that I am responding to a 7 month old thread that was at the top of 'Hot'. Lemmy's algorithm is confusing.

I'm not sure why government employees can even use their work phones to install personal applications. Isn't the whole point of a work phone using it for work?

I imagine that a bunch of these employees are just not buying a personal device and using their work provided ones as their main device (I see the same in the corporate world as well.)

#DropKiwifarms works to end the relationship between far-right hate forum Kiwi Farms and the digital service providers that keep Kiwi Farms active online

Is KF even far right? I was always under the impression it was just an extension of 4chan focused on gossip about minor e-celebrities.

Not that I support Kiwi Farms, but I just find applying the "far right" label to everything offensive kind of loaded at this point.

While this is true, ProtonDB has even better numbers than Valve so it's still a win for the topic.

From Kbin you can subscribe to whatever sublemmies you're interested in as if they were magazines.

You could also do the same in reverse from Beehaw/Lemmy.world, but KBin currently doesn't federate properly (due to Cloudflare DDoS protection.)

Communities -> Search, make sure you are on 'All' (so you aren't just searching communities local to your instance)

Seems like pathfinder.social is an instance dedicated to Pathfinder communities.

Edit: I should also add, there's a pinned post "This community is not for support!", there's a specific [email protected] for these kinds of questions.

This isn't the case for me. I have a bunch of lemmy.ml subscriptions pending, and none of them show up on my subscription feed. Hopefully this is fixed soon

I think they did do research and third party app users make up a small enough portion of their user base that losing them is okay to Reddit.

Keep in mind how popular Reddit is -- for the most part the people left will be content with the karma bots reposting memes for the thirtieth time and there's always going to be somebody racing to be the first to post some news to a related subreddit.

I doubt it'll affect their bottom line too much and in a week it'll be back to business as usual for most subreddits.
