I use RedLib but I make it even easier by having an extension LibRidirect that automatically redirects reddit links to privacy frontends such as RedLib. It’s really easy to use and I don’t even have to think about using Reddit ever again. Win-win in my book.
I am going to distro hop and experiment with it a bit more before I make the switch, I haven’t thought about things such as my peripherals being incompatible under Linux until I tried it for myself. I couldn’t use some of the buttons on my mouse (Logitech G502) to change things such as the DPI/sensitivity, and my headset (Arctis Novo Pro Wireless) also had similar issues, both of which use software that is only made for Windows. :(
It’s been 2 years for me, and I never went back. Well, aside from looking up the random tech question here and there since Reddit is in every search result. (Use redlib to view reddit stuff!) I am quite liking the fediverse. It has this early Internet forum vibe to it. I kinda hope it stays small for a little while longer. More people probably means more enshittification.
Oh wow, just noticed my lemmy app can play videos now. Let’s gooo
The heat gets so bad here that I am practically dreading living half the year. I’m so thankful for winter months though. I love the snow and being able to play on my PC to heat my room up from the cold easily. I feel like I can barely game and do much in summer/spring because of all the extra heat my GPU puts off…
I hope this helps give Linux some love. Been using Bazzite and it seems to do the job pretty well.
Lemmy isn’t reddit so you’re good
Thanks for the info. Gonna check it out!
Edit: Ok you know what bazzite looks awesome. I’m definitely gonna install it later this week on my main pc and see how it goes
Yeah I only have used the steam deck, but I imagine the alternative Windows based handhelds feel much more clunky/hacky since Windows has issues suspending things in general, especially games. Maybe they fixed some of the issues on that end by now, but I feel like SteamOS is really the best and most viable option here for these other companies looking to cash in on this trend. Especially since Windows is bloated as is and not really made for this type of thing.
Not sure if Valve does this already, but perhaps they could license out SteamOS to other manufacturers too? It would make Valve’s “competition” more lucrative for them. At the very least, I hope more people start using SteamOS so Linux gaming gets more adoption as time goes on. Valve has done absolute wonders for the linux community with Proton.
Because there’s always going to be someone who says the distro you liked the most is not the distro you should be using. (I use Arch btw)
“Removed” Reddit in a nutshell.
What they don’t realize is people are also using those third party apps because they are offering much more customization than the stock YouTube app ever offers. I had free premium and still used Revanced because it’s such a godsend. There’s so much useless crap in the youtube layout.
That fact does seem really fun and interesting. Why barbie? Got any links so I can read up on it?
