Well, app just means application, and applications are just programs. Almost everything on your computer is a program, including core parts of your operating system.
If you mean third party applications, then sure, you could use your computer without them.


I am about to install a second Technitium instance, so this is great timing.

I’m still getting used to the UI update of 2.8
I’m out of luck, it seems, since I’m already running Gitea 1.24.6.
The longer you wait the more incompatible and harder to migrate it will get.
I know, but I thought it was already too late to simply change the docker image and be done with it. But, you are saying it’s still just a drop-in replacement currently?
I meant it more like “I’m concerned if I’m missing out on something huge by still using Gitea.”
But if they’re still mostly the same, I’ll just stick with what I’ve already set up.
Does Forgejo have any killer features or something that makes it worthwhile for me to switch away from Gitea now?
I’ve tried it out now too, and it looks promising.
I didn’t like it, as it didn’t have the exact full article view mode I desired, but lots of people like it.
The loss of Google Reader is basically what taught me not to get too attached to services I can’t host myself. I’m hosting an older version of TT-RSS (due to migration issues to newer versions), and will continue with that until it no longer works for me, and then I will probably move on to CommaFeed. I’ve already tested all the commonly self hosted RSS readers out there, and that’s the one that fits my needs best, other than TT-RSS.

I don’t think that’s the preferred nomenclature anymore.


Snaps are basically the only reason I don’t use Ubuntu.
<wildly unrealistic idea> could <wildly unrealistic improvement>
Yet another useless article that hinges entirely on the word ‘could’. I can make stuff up too:
“1 windmill placed in every front yard could slash power prices by 99.9%”
“Solar panels mounted on every cat and dog could solve all our power needs”
“Painting all buildings in the world with reflective paint could save the polar ice caps by 2027”


No, I don’t think I “should” know this.
You should know that this isn’t the place to post random promotional advertising.


Oh, it’s not actually FOSS, I think, sorry. Disregard this.
Total Commander is what I use. It’s a dual-pane file manager that has support SFTP, WebDAV, SMB and more with the official plugins it has. It sometimes feels a bit dated, but most other file managers I’ve tried felt simplistic and dumb compared to it. It has lots of advanced features too.


Making the votes public but making sure everyone knows that would be fine.
This is why I actually like that in kbin/mbin you can see up front who has voted what. It doesn’t pretend votes are secret when they aren’t.
But they promised!
