came here to spread the good word of endeavor os

I refuse to use anything that isnt arch based unless its a niche linux distribution for something specific because the arch user repository basically solves the biggest issue for newbies which is getting a grasp of packages for software. it has any of the common software and if you do need to build something from a github repo, that is ofc easy enough on any distro. I'm not the most technically inclined with linux and I use a chatgpt got thingy called code copilot in their search thing and I can use it to solve even really niche problems I have like a USB DAC not being recognized because it doesn't have the correct read/write permissions. most of the time I just ask basic things like how to get whatever github repo working and it helps me troubleshoot if I run into weird issues. I even got it to help me set up neo-matrix to run in alacrity terminal on bootup, it was a nice introduction to scripting and autostart and stuff when it helped me, so now I have a little bit better grasp on how that all works out.

lmao

what's this mean?

huh thats interesting I guess that makes enough sense since you have your subscribed section, your home server section, and then the everything section. so you are seeing more of what you choose to see unless you explore things that aren't your interests so much or check out the everything section a lot.

I havent used Lemmy much and only made a reddit account like a year ago after reading reddit posts for many years on and off but I alresy feel like this is the case on Lemmy.

relatable haha

ah thanks for this, I'll have to check on PC. ive been using Lemmy pretty much only on mobile through boost.

now what 0.0

I'm pretty new to fediverse stuff and hadn't use many clients but I heard about boost for reddit as I was trying out Lemmy the first time and found out there is boost for Lemmy too, it has ads but I think there is also a pay version? I may be wrong about that though. so far boost has been nice

I'm sometimes a little jelly about those that got to experience that era of the internet. I was born right on 2k and I still grew up feeling a little bit of that very briefly as a kid but not to any major degree.

wowee is it really that bad for them? I wouldve thought since they grew up with tech that it would just be intuitive to them.

sounds like many would love to see your podcast! myself included

that it would be haha maybe this will spark someone to actually do that 0.0

thanks for the recommendation, gonna give it a spin

at first I wasnt picturing how that would work exactly but then I realized you are a bit locked down into your own communities a bit unless you intentionally explore other areas or mainly look at the everything section

interesting

I was hoping to one day see someone make a comment like this lmao

didn't know that was a possibility, looks like I have the button though!

with the help of chatgpt, this Linux noob is able to use an arch based system no problem! I even get to use better versions of every software I've used in the past!
