For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

I just feel there is a glaring flaw in Appx, in that if you ever need to try and troubleshoot a piece of software or need to access the application folder in anyway for any reason, it's effectively blackwalls it. Or at least, it's not worth the amount of effort and compromise required to bypass it.

Flatpaks are way better than Snaps, but I feel AppImage's do a much better job of modularizing executables and their libraries into an easy to run package. I just wish there was a decent piece of software for management of installation of them.

I use Pop_os on my main computer and recently have been getting back into NixOS and been working on writing a full configuration file for it.

I hear a lot about those distros around here. I recently settled on openSUSE Tumbleweed after having used Fedora and ZorinOS for a while. It's so good, I haven't thought about switching to anything else. Manjaro, Pop_os, and NixOS are on my list if that ever changes.

I like AppImage a lot and I wonder why that didn't take off like Flatpak did. A timing issue, perhaps?
