  • I think comments are what Lemmy needs the most, we already have a good number of posts

  • we need more users

    Jump

  • Is there a good way to link to posts and coments?

    Jump

  • I guess if you know they're a Lemmy user you can make a relative link to their Lemmy search page:

    https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/52571066

    that's using this markdown code:

     
        
[https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/52571066](/search?q=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscuss.tchncs.de%2Fpost%2F52571066&type=Url&listingType=All&page=1&sort=TopAll&titleOnly=false)

    But this probably only works for the default lemmy-ui

    I'm still salty this feature request was closed as not planned lol https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2318

  • I would say Lemmy's search is better than Reddit's

  • and if someone had a bad experience with Lemmy you can't force them to give it another chance, but you could tell them about PieFed

  • I don't see why we should consider accounts that haven't been used in 6 months, we're talking about content contributions (posts/comments/votes) and those inactive accounts aren't doing anything for that

  • 1.0 will be good, but probably still many months away

    and I kind of doubt most Reddit users will care, maybe we'll gain a few hundred users if we're lucky

  • Just wait and let Reddit have another controversy and we’ll get another infusion of converts.

    Just wait

    this is how something like Digg swoops in and steals all the users

  • improve battery handling on laptops

    anyone know what this is about?

    a workaround for Windows games with HDR support to ensure the colors still look good when running them in Wine or Proton

    sounds good

  • Steam Frame and Steam Machine will be another good boost for Flatpaks and desktop Linux overall too

    Jump

  • I just hope it sets a good example for other OEMs.

    "What do you mean people don't want 50+ liters of unused space?? They want Linux on their gaming computer?"

    And I'm guessing the price will be high enough that other OEMs will be able to compete with it with higher specs (RDNA 4) and similar prices (within a few hundred dollars)

  • well that depends on the... dependencies (heh) more than the program itself

    AppImage works well too, I've been using Gear Lever for them

  • I really like Flatpak. Sure it uses extra disk space, but it works well, and doesn't require admin to install

  • Acer Laptop Battery Control Driver Looks Toward The Upstream Linux Kernel

    Jump

  • I use the battery health settings on my Lenovo laptop and it's been amazing, it wasn't even able to do this on Windows. In fact my original battery turned into a spicy pillow because Windows would just keep it at 100% all the time. I was running with no battery for a while, but finally got a new battery recently.

    Now I have it set to stop charging when it reaches 80%, and it doesn't start charging unless it's below 60%. Probably overly safe but I love the flexibility of these controls. The charging control even works while the laptop is sleeping. And the power passthrough works properly too because the battery level never goes down while it's plugged in.

    I'm no longer afraid of leaving the laptop powered on and plugged in for long periods of time.

  • Interesting they're using Nvidia GPUs for specifically Linux laptops

  • Yeah I'm not a huge fan of rolling updates, just seems more likely for things to break.

    Kubuntu has been pretty good for me, but I think Fedora generally has much newer packages even though it isn't rolling. It might be a good compromise for me. Or maybe Manjaro.
