matchd comes with systemd so yours is bloat

Yes, I was thinking... How much tax on Google will force it to get out? I'd say it's definitely a lot more money.

Also, what's interesting is that... If Google got kicked out... Nothing would happen. There's libre software for everything Google does.

Nope, they are separate packages. Although installing gufw would trigger the install of ufw for obvious reasons.

If you are using KDE Plasma, then you should be able to install firewalld or ufw for the firewall, and plasma-firewall for having GUI firewall settings on Plasma settings.

If you dislike plasma-firewall, then nothing beats gufw as a frontend for ufw.

Please stop with these useless articles. Yes, every world power likes gathering metadata. And no, USA is not a "better place" for metadata gathering.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Well, you fell on the sad trap of the "default flavour" of many distros.

I think GNOME only has that presence because... It's american. Otherwise... No one can beat the possibilities and features of KDE Plasma. Truly a complete desktop, so good you could downgrade it to work like GNOME if you wanted.

Let me stop you right there: the chances of Jellyfin going rogue are much smaller. It's libre software. It's GPL. It's copyleft. We are pretty much safe.

You are not a Plasma user it seems.

As a Unihertz owner: stay sway from any of their products. Software support is non-existent. If you are lucky, you may get 1 update 1 month after release.

They are a niche brand, so custom ROMs simply don't properly work.

What I'll never understand is why they don't release their code and let the community make Unihertz the best brand ever, because hardware quality is incredible. But this hardware is useless with terrible software.

The other day I switched Linux distros, wiped disk, and somehow realised that OMEMO is a weird freaky thing and now I cannot see any message from my computer, even though I have everything visible on my Conversations Android app.

I don't want to get angry again, but... yeah, this is terrible, terrible UX. Seems like OMEMO somehow encrypts for each device differently, and now all messages are "locked". Which is weird, because messages are still there, just "locked".

Can I somehow import a backup from my Android app? Is there anything that can be done? My guess is that, probably not, otherwise I would have gotten a popup or something in the login process, "would you like to sync your messages?", but nothing happened.

XMPP supremacists, please! Give me a solution! I was organizing important projects with multiple people. Getting locked out of all that information is terrible.

Otherwise, then I really feel I can see XMPP disappearing now... and for a very good reason.

You can skip that step. Not that it's okay, tho.

Is the loss of pacman and AUR that bad?

What things are to be gained? I expect that SELinux and Redhat backing should really make fedora way more secure.

I have a feeling it must exist. Some kind of search-engine that's got all the major trackers right there for you.

I know how to do it in the battery section through the GUI, but I'd like to set it up through a command, for automation purposes, and particularly for KDE Connect commands.

When I read about Overture Maps like a year or 2 ago, it seemed to me that basically they were going to create a whole new thing from scratch.

Let's be honest, with enough resources, it's easy to see that they could pull off some kind of OpenStreetMap 2.0, where all the issues from OSM are modernised and cleaned up.

What's really going on? Are we getting something soon from these people? What's the relationship with them?

On their website, they say "coming this fall". Are you excited? Scared? What should I think?

I swear this question comes up everyday in Lemmy 😅.

Firefox, I just use Firefox because, it works, it has enough privacy measures, and everyone is looking at the codebase, something that cannot be said about most (if not all) forks.

I'm trying to feel more comfortable using random GitHub projects, basically.

I am talking about this kind of livestream.

It looks nice, with all the different layouts and so on.

As a small phone lover, here's the thing: we don't consume as many phones or as many services as (general) big phone people.

It's not only about the size of the community. It's that our phones are tools generally at our service and not the reverse.

Hopefully Linux phones are not so far away from usable in the next couple years.
