Alternatively, some folks can also try Freetube for an ad free youtube experience as a desktop app

Now they are fight attendants

That's because Linux is meant to run Linux software.. Wine should only be used as a last resort. When it comes to production software we should focus on improving our open alternatives and making them suitable for more users to migrate to our ecosystem, thus, creating demand for Adobe software or MS Office to be ported, or they might not even be needed by then

It's the flathub repo, which is also listed on their official website! But your link is valid too

I use Linux for about 2 years

Up until February this year, I was still using a 14 year old DDR2 desktop. Windows 10 started to get quite slow and had some annoying crashes (mainly the fault of my goofy old hardware, of course)

I learned about Linux as an alternative through a Linux Tech Tips video about gaming on Linux, and Valve's announcement of the Steam Deck, I was also interested in FOSS apps as alternative to proprietary ones.

Decided to try Linux Mint. With no prior experience with Linux, lack of luck finding good tutorials, and some weird thing happening with my games not launching, I had a very rough start.

But thanks to Mint, suddenly my DDR2 desktop got a lot smoother :D also, all of my drivers worked out of the box, and I got very surprised with Linux's plug-and-play hardware capabilities.

So I decided to learn how to use it, tinkered alot with my system, and broken it alot! It was kind of frustrating, but fun at same time.

And without noticing, I had already learned lots about Linux from a more technical, and then, philosophical point of view.

Now I'm a great fan of Linux and FOSS, and have been helping friends to move to it by giving support with issues I had in the past.

Took me some time

Latin America is NOT US's space. This imperialist view of the world that some west nations show is the reason why Latin America is distancing from them

OP thinks Microsoft's ecosystem makes users too lazy to change to other ecosystems

That's why I only use Newpipe

To answer questions 1, 2, and 3:

1. Yes you can 👍

2. yep, do your rice. Maybe visit the Unixporn community.

3. For the most part (in MY experience) changing DEs only involves installing the desktop package, choosing your login manager, and then removing the old DE and its native apps (unless you want to keep them)

But that's why I said we should improve upon these alternatives tho, they are certainly not perfect and I never said they could replace Windows software currently

Today's reality is that most people (aka everyone) depends on these proprietary piece of software that are not avaiable on Linux, Adobe's and Microsoft's being the main ones.

But I believe that by focusing on improving and showing people that these alternatives exists and can be useable would help them slowly migrate to our open platforms, maybe even making proprietary software be ported to Linux.

When it comes to production software, THATS what we need, native Linux apps, and WINE does not solve that issue, so seeing it as a possible solution for running your production software (like Office 2021) will unsurprisingly cause days of fixing your stuff, while native Linux apps on the other hand, GIMP, Libreoffice, Inkscape, all work out of the box

Just install the libretorrent and you're good to go, its pretty easy and straight foward. https://www.f-droid.org/packages/org.proninyaroslav.libretorrent/

Pop!_OS nvidia version

I'm not sure about how much up to date Kubuntu's drivers are but maybe, if the software is at fault, changing to a more bleeding edge distro, like Fedora KDE, would solve this issue with temperature.

The fdroid repos can get kinda outdated. But in my personal experience, the app has shown no issues. I guess being compliant with the tirrent protocols is all that matters for it to work.

There isnt much to say about how to use it. Just install the app, search for a torrent you want to download (be it via a magnet link, or a .torrent file) and thats it.

NSFU2 memories

Really like this distro, waiting for Orchid so I can finally stop hopping

I'm not saying latin america has seized relations with US, just pointing out some of the reasons why China is growing its influence on the continent. Their friendly prices and big investments are much more appealing than empty US promises, as shown in the Summit of the Americas

Oh, I was getting ready to answer you but it seems like candle_lighter already did it for me, and you managed to find your own answers :)

To put it in few words: I just like how Vanilla's implementation of immutability makes it so simple to use.

A good portion of the "drama" comes from drivers issues, which are hit or miss within Linux distros. Your hardware can only work on boot or make you cry in pain while trying to compile them 😅 But when the hardware works, all you need to do is get used to the open source ecosystem! Wish you the best in your desktop Linux journey 🙂

Unless the user is mostly searching for an emulation device. For that use case, android can prove to be quite decent.

But personally, I'm on the deck team too 😁

Which one is this?

Thank u
