If you're looking for stable and up to date, give openSUSE Tumbleweed a shot.

LineageOS would probably also be a decent choice if they don't absolutely have to have no Google at all.

openSUSE Leap or Tumbleweed is an option if you wanna stick to RPM-based.

AdAway is what I use on my rooted devices. It does have a rootless mode as well and if it's anywhere near as good as the root mode I would absolutely recommend it. I haven't tested it though so give it a shot.

Pixeldroid is a third party app. Pixelfed has their own official app as well if that matters to anyone.

It's boring, but like someone else mentioned it tells you exactly what it does. So, I don't really see a problem with it.

Just out of curiosity, what difference would PAE make in this argument? What is the memory limit on a PAE-enabled kernel? What other differences would it make?

Like most of the apps at the moment, it's under active development and improving rapidly. Don't give up on any of the apps you try too quickly.

The Steam Deck is supposedly an emulation powerhouse from what I've heard. Could be a good option if you don't mind playing older FIFA titles from the PS1 era or similar.

Hell, I have a laptop that's over 10 years old. It isn't officially supported on Windows 11, but I'm sure I could get it on there in some unsupported way, using Rufus or another tool that removes the TPM requirements and have it be usable and secure. It runs Windows 10 without complaints. I can run an up to date Linux distro on it and be completely up to date and secure. So, like you said, why can't phones do the same?

Can this be used along with uBlock Origin? Would they interfere with each other?

Middle-click might be an option for you too. One handed operation and I'm pretty sure it works on most browsers.

Just like jet fuel can't melt steel beams?

Which sucks because there was a time when some laptops let you change all the parts, including the CPU.

Trisquel is sadly the kind of software that would attract those kinds of users. It's all about being completely free and open source. No driver blobs or anything even slightly proprietary. I appreciate the stance and how they're doing it but people who go that far in their software choices tend to be quite serious and almost radical when it comes to their choices. Some of them also feel superior to people who haven't been able to make the switch to free software. It's also sad that the way they react will probably chase away more potential converts than it actually helps.

Honestly, what I like about it started with the mascot. Otherwise, I like the fact that the rolling release has automatic testing to make sure it's mostly reliable. Many people will also tell you how amazing YaST, their "control panel", is. There's definitely some stuff to get used to, like patterns and zypper. But, for a set and forget system, it's hard to beat IMO.

I always made sure my laptops had tlp installed. Now it seems openSUSE has cpu power profiles daemon or something by default, which it says conflicts with tlp when I tried to install it. So, I'm giving that a shot.

I'm trying to add your instance to the LibreTube app. It's asking for a URL to instance API. Where can I find this?

You probably didn't have a lot of AUR packages installed. That seems to be a big issue for Manjaro. They hold packages back and the AUR just keeps going so things get out of sync and break.

I'm torn between both sides of this argument. If I lost access to Netflix I wouldn't be too bothered. But, I also understand that other people see the value in it and would be happy to subscribe if they lost access to an account that was shared with them.

Start following a few hashtags. That will give you a solid starting point.

Follow some hashtags. Makes it active very quickly and lets you find accounts to follow.

I'm in the same boat. Liftoff is working well at the moment but I'm waiting for Slide to get better.

And I'm on Liftoff waiting for Infinity.

Thank you. Got it set up now

I see. Good to know that thanks.

Because the full address would be https://lemm.ee/c/remposting. So the c is already there.

My bad. I meant Slide. It's what I used before moving to Infinity.

Minus the grill, sadly.

I think they mean the fact that the development team has seen some shuffling and the project stagnated for a bit. I love Budgie, which comes from Solus, but I'd rather use it on a different distro than using Solus, which seems a bit off-balance at the moment. Give them time to stabilize before trying them.

There's Liftoff, wefwef.app (web app), Slide is still very early alpha, Thunder. There are a lot of options.

I've heard that snaps are great for servers, which is where Ubuntu is focused these days. Also, they want people to use their homemade technology instead of Flatpaks, which are much better for desktop users from my understanding.

I know RedReader is one of the apps that's being allowed as an accessibility tool. But, even then they'll still be cut off from NSFW content if I understand right. This means you get access to some of Reddit but, obviously not all of it, which is just BS for anyone who wants to keep using it.

No, apt usually gives you native .deb installs. Flatpak and Snap are two different container technologies for distributing apps.

I'm holding out for Slide for Lemmy as another Android user. But, wefwef is pretty good so far.

Not the other person, but openSUSE is amazing. You just have to add the Packman repos as explained on their wiki. Haven't used it for gaming and such yet so can't really give more specific tips regarding that.

I don't have the Deck, so I kept my answer conservative. Glad to hear PS2 also works well. Might be more worth it for the OP.

I think you'll have to use a VPN to make it look like you're from Europe. Other than that, you should be good.
