  • Installing Linux Doesn't Need to Change. The Experience Does.

  • No it does not.

    TL;DR: People who cant use linux never learned the basics of computers. They just learned where to click to do x and where to do y in windows, and they just instantly lock up once anything is different

  • Linux Kernel to Drop Support for Legacy i486 and Early 586 CPUs

    Jump

  • It says a lot about linux that them dropping support for an over 20 year old CPU is a big anouncement

  • They could remove the Dock. They just dont want to.

    If you made a multiplayer Video game with a cult following, which cant compete even slightly to other, more modern games, would you a) just release all QoL and content stuff in a single big patch and have to compete with the better games, or b) drip feed your cult your updates slowly, doing a small update every 5 years and locking it behind a DLC, so you never have to worry about your users Adapting to modern standards and even seeing the others as an alternative?

    Thats what apple is doing. If they would just add every single modern thing into a smartphone, other smart phones would start being competition, and worse, they would have to start innovating again. Instead, they are waiting years every time they do the slightest update to their design, making sure to alter the technology enough so consumers can't adapt to modern technology without having to learn how to use it from scratch.

  • Lenovo Cuts the Windows Tax and offers Cheaper Laptops with Linux Pre-installed

  • If you only need iTunes for your iPod, there is a music manager alternative on Linux, its a GNOME app but I dont know the Name

    For old games Theres ScummVM, and if its the DRM that wont work you might as well just pirate it, since you own the games anyway

    Also I meant about 80% of all users, who only use it to browse the web and use some simple things like image viewers and stuff. For those people, Linux would be more than enough, if not even better because most software is OSS, but most of them just don't want to learn how a computer works, and instead just opt for the method I just described

  • Lenovo Cuts the Windows Tax and offers Cheaper Laptops with Linux Pre-installed

    Jump

  • Would mainstream users benefit from having Linux pre-installed on their laptops?

    Installing Linux is the easiest part of switching to Linux. If Linux was 100% the same as Windows in terms of user experience, everyone would have switched to Linux by now

    The problem is that people nowadays are just as tech incompetent as they were when the first computer came out. Instead of having a basic understanding of how to use a computer, they just memorize where do click in order to Start application x and do thing y. So the Moment you just slightly alter the workflow, they just lock up. Next time you are at a normie friends house, just try and put a link from their desktop into a folder with the same Name. I will bet my ass they will lock up the Moment the icon of that link has changed.

  • The Fairphone 5 price has been dropped to €499. The phone is designed to be the most advanced environmentally friendly smartphone.

  • for the average user.

    So we are talking about an average user, who

    • fully understands the appeal of a degoogled Phone
    • Willingly spends extra money for a fairphone
    • is able to migrate away from google services to /e/'s services
    • Is willing and able to troubleshoot any problems that MicroG has
    • is willing to fix not working banking apps
    • but somehow can't use a simple web installer from Calyx

    Tell me, is this average user in the room with us right now?

    Everything works out of the boy.

    So does (and does not) with Calix or Graphene

    Buy a Pixel.

    I think you don't get what I'm talking about.

    -It takes a base level of understanding why you would buy a Fairphone (or any degoogled phone)

    • it takes a base level of understanding phones to be able to use a degoogled one
    • If you already have that knowledge, you might as well just take an extra 5 minutes and use the web installer for calyx since it is literally the same AND has less vendor lockin than /e/

    Edit: You want an average user friendly ROM? Just use Lineage for gods sake.

  • there is still some goggle code in that.

    But that code is open source, and it has been verified that it dosent track you.

  • I mean, you could use CalyxOS

    It dosent have such things as 2 factor pin auth for fingerprint, but its the closest to Graphene

  • /e/ has built in privacy features

    /e/ uses a for profit 3rd party for unencrypted backups. That alone should be a big red flag.

    is google-free and runs MicroG

    So it runs google. MicroG just limits what data is sent to google.

    You can even use your apps that you purchased from the PlayStore.

    You can do the same with aurora store. That's available on just about every phone.
