Just to be safe you may want to copy important files to a cloud storage AND usb drive before formatting the drive.

Also don’t overthink this and there is nothing wrong with Kubuntu, but Kinoite is going to be very similar and a little more resistant to n00b tinkering mistakes.

True, I edited my comment. I personally recommend the USB method (or if you have easy access to the internals- just swapping out an SSD).

First of all, you are on feddit.nl and cannot speak for"Lemmy". That said- if anything, “Lemmy” users should be supporting independent journalism like 404 Media.

It’s to prevent scraping/harvesting by AI: https://www.404media.co/why-404-media-needs-your-email-address/

They do not ask for a phone number.

It takes some doing, but you can live boot windows from a USB drive for those rare instances you need it. You can also just install it to a VM inside Linux (also not easy). But honestly these days the times where you’ll NEED Windows are few and far between (and getting fewer and farther).

Tinder started as a “hook-up” app, if they went back to that kind of marketing I would not find the company quite so reprehensible.

Bazzite is a custom image of Kinoite, but I’m not surprised it’s taking off, it’s great.

Edit: Source

Unless I’m misunderstanding it looks like they do work with rclone https://rclone.org/protondrive/

Suuure

Are you a bot lmao it looks nothing like lcars

This is cool but why can’t we change the whole theme😖

I agree, I really don’t think the concerns about “not being able to tell what’s real” will be a major issue (at least to those who care about knowing what’s real). Social media has been full of human-made slop for years and if someone is getting their sense of reality from social media posts, then that is the problem and AI isn’t going to dramatically change that.

I have a feeling if any of these video generators tried to make a “clip” longer than a couple of seconds they would rapidly become a lot less “real looking”

A Fedi instance requires a time commitment, there are some good suggestions in here but I recommend some alternative frontends.

I agree re: Fedora, especially the atomic varieties. I do think Zorin is good at what it is but it has a pretty specific use case.

Also, had no idea you were also in this community. Pleasant surprise.

Had the same thought, it’s always nice to encounter a civilized person of distinguished taste and culture out here in the wilds.

Even without costs you will always have some faction of FOSS users who view UIs and user-friendliness to be something that can be optimized away (and will always, always, let you know their feelings on the topic).

It’s not a scam at all, Zorin is a good distro.

10/10 this is the future of Linux

Totally agree

That is correct and echoes what I said
