Noo don’t eat the RAM! I still need it for Blendeeer!

This would convince me to vote for Biden! And I’m not even american

Every time I read something new about the new Windows. I’m really glad I’ve switched to Linux and figured how to set up, use and debug it already. With this knowledge I never want to go back. Even PC Gaming is no problem anymore with Proton, Lutris etc. The only thing I needed to watch out for was to get an AMD graphics card (NVIDIA is slowly getting there too hopefully), but I needed a new PC anyway so it was the perfect time

Then everybody will just argue what’s the best distro/desktop environment/kernel etc. instead xD

More than some google bs. They’re open source, you could theoretically look at all the executed commands if you’re not trusting it enough. Sure it could be another binary, but I think most people doing something FOSS (meaning freetime invested not for profit, out of hobby/interest/inspiration) are reasonable enough to not do stupid stuff like that. The way big corps are trying to overtake FOSS projects is the danger. Microsoft bought GitHub to get access to all of the community built software, we should diversify, I’m agreeing. Only a few big companies have taken the internet hostage, we need to free it again. As a community, normally the internet should be a place of plurality, not a few big sites that are the main hubs for everything. That’s what it was intended for

The best way to get rid oft the spy crap entirely is to get a pixel phone and flashing GrapheneOS (de-googled Android). Dw, it’s not that hard to do, there’s a good manual. Sure you need to find alternatives to google apps, but so far I could get replacement apps for almost everything FOSS from F-Droid store. Some apps cry for play services from time to time, but only a few of them won’t work at all without them. Most of the time it can be ignored. You are able to install a defused sandboxed version if something really needs it tho. If you need an app from play store you can use Aurora Store (Foss play store client). Even E-SIM works without problems. And the best is 7 years guaranteed updates starting with the phone release. The a series is quite cheap (got Pixel 8a for ~460€). I can only recommend this setup.
