I’m happy about any new features that draw more users to a federated alternative :)

Also a sysasmin, really don’t wanna learn it…or have to type it on the daily

That’s a great callout, and something we should be considering more often

I love this change, actually, I’m not a boring-text purist. Proper categorizing of data allows me to spot things at a glance much easier, and I’m all in favor of anything that can improve efficiency and understanding, especially for new folks, so we can improve product adoption.

While I don’t have the answer as to why, it usually works if you just add a shift, ie. SHIFT+CTRL+V Many terminals also allow you to change the shortcut to copy and paste, so you can adjust for comfort’s sake.

Thank you! I love the flexibility of Plasma and being able to make a uniquely me environment

Thanks a ton! I loved changing everything and finding what things I could or could not do without and optimize everything to my use-case. Getting off of my work Windows PC and logging into my home Linux PC feels like such a breath of fresh air

It’s actually just the normal KDE one, set as floating, then shrunk it to my desired size. My partner then added some embellishments to the wallpaper to make the clock and taskbar pop

• OS: Manjaro
• DE: KDE Plasma 5
• Global: Scratchy
• Plasma Style, Window Decorations, and Colors are customized and don’t remember their sources, sorry
• Icons: Colorful-Dark-Icons
• Cursor: Breeze

I know there’s a lot of defaults in here, but this has been my daily driver for 6 years now and been loving this setup

This is gorgeous!!!

I’ve been daily driving Manjaro for 4 years without any issues. Generally speaking I’d recommend seeing if there is a flatpak for an app before using AUR. I don’t update as soon as updates are out though, so usually any issues there may have been have been shmoothed over before I get to it.

While I agree, most people shouldn’t have to be concerned with it, you can’t deny the resource impacts of various languages, libraries and frameworks, like compare the memory usage of Discord or Teams with those of FOSS chat applications, and you’ll notice those two consistently eating much more memory. You can also compare compute speeds of a higher level language like Python vs lower level languages like Rust and you’ll find that Rust is quite a bit faster (though generally takes more dev time). So yes, users shouldn’t have to be concerned with involved languages, but if you’re running something on a low-resource device, such as a Raspberry Pi, those little details can make all the difference.

oooh, I’m going to have to try out nushell, I’m liking the look of that

Also a great way to get more performance and increase battery life. On a laptop, most folks would be hard pressed to see the difference between 1080p and a higher resolution.

Exactly where I’m at. I’ve had no issues with it, I have my home computer all set up and customized over the last 3 years, I’m not doing that again just to say that I’m on a different distro unless something goes very wrong.

Ah, excellent, thank you so much for answering that!

I also feel like that’s to be expected, I bet big companies see graphs just like this too. There was anger and hype for a lot of people to move to a new platform. Many did, but it didn’t become the new habit for everyone. That’s not a failure of Lemmy. In fact, I’d say this is an impressive metric, especially considering we do not know what defines “active”. Is logging in what mark someone as active? Upvoting? Commenting? We should see this graph as a big win, especially during Lemmy’s infancy.
