You might be able to find a super lightweight desktop distro out there (I think Damn Small Linux can run on those specs?) or you could repurpose it as a basic server of some sort like you mentioned. Unless you wanted to invest in some cheap old ram to throw in there and maybe make it a bit faster, then I think those would be your best options.

I've been using it on my Fedora laptop for the past week or so and it's really nice, even in alpha 1! Can't wait to see how it turns out fully finished!

I was so happy about this! Been using it on my work MacBook and have been excited to use it on my main laptop!

Windows 10 before I used Linux full-time, though I did try out Windows 11.

From my understanding the OP said it was normal water too.

Imagine being so against people using certain programs on their computer that you straight up deny them software updates.

My only major complaint is their free-tier is a bit lacking compared to what Skiff had (or I guess has, but not for much longer.) I think their platform is great, and definitely worth paying for, but given I'm a broke college student that's not much of an option. Also their support for third party clients (or lack thereof) isn't great, though I don't use those as much. Otherwise I like it quite a bit!

Generally I have when I use Gnome or KDE on Linux, though I have started to prefer MATE, which doesn't have Wayland support yet afaik. I also started using FreeBSD on one of my computers a bit more, and I believe Wayland support is still a bit wonky on that right now. But as soon as Wayland support is there I'm definitely switching to that on the daily.

I personally like Podverse.

 

I saw that the FreeBSD Foundation announced it was working with Framework to certify their laptops to be able to run FreeBSD out of the box. I am currently running GhostBSD (FreeBSD-based for anyone who is unfamiliar) and was wondering some things about reporting bugs.

  1. Do I just report them to the normal Bugzilla tracker? Or is there somewhere else I should report bugs?
  2. Is it a problem that I'm running GhostBSD instead of normal FreeBSD? I know it is based on FreeBSD Stable, but I wanted to check in case it would be different enough that I should be reporting elsewhere.
 

I have been a member of my current Mastodon instance for a few years now, and I absolutely love the community there. But recently, I found a Firefish instance that I am thinking of maybe switching over to, because I like Firefish so far, and the community there is also really awesome. I figure with migrating followers, I can still be a part of both communities from the new account (especially since I mainly stay in my following feed and don't really browse the local feed.)

I'm still holding off on migrating for a bit until the honeymoon phase wears off, but if I do end up doing it, is there anything I need to/should do beyond just going through the migration process and transferring the data over? Like is there some sort of courtesy post I should make on my Mastodon instance saying I am moving over? Or am I just overthinking everything?

 

My boss is trying to add page numbers to a Microsoft Word document, and for some reason the numbers are showing up sideways. I have no idea what is causing it, and if I try to copy the text to a new document with normal page number orientation, they will turn sideways. Any ideas as to why this might be happening?
