I’m curious why links2 over, say, w3m? It feels like none of the terminal browsers are as nice as they could be these days…

Been looking forward to this for a long time—K-9 Mail is an excellent mail client, but this is one step closer to Desktop/Mobile sync.

Just curious—what accessibility extensions do you use on desktop?

I’ve used it for uni on a Linux tablet/convertible and it worked really quite well and has some nice convenient features for note-taking.

What tablet did you use?

If you’re on Wayland, fuzzel just keeps getting better each release.

Wait, so how do we print now?

Wait, so there’s multiple engines? Someone explain this to me—if I wanted to play free Quake in the simplest way, what exactly would I need to install?

Love fuzzel—it’s pretty performant, even with a few thousand options to pick from.

NixOS. Declarative system management is just so unbelievably simple and reliable that I couldn’t ever see myself going back to a traditional Linux system.

Anyone using this? How is it?

I’m very pleased to discover this. I’ve been using this online editor for a while—good to have a local alternative.

i3 and xfce can be combined to achieve a very practical result. Highly recommend. It’s trivial to setup on NixOS, at least.

Depends on the options mpv passes to yt-dlp—I personally have in my mpv config to grab 720p videos, so that it’s faster than downloading full quality.

I’ve been using todo.txt for tasks for about a month now—it’s dead simple, supports all the bells and whistles you mentioned; and, with the topydo CLI, you can very easily make yourself a kanban interface using its columns UI. I sync the files with my iPhone and use Todooo on iOS, which works beautifully.

As for notes, I just write simple text files with my favorite editor. Maintaining complex systems of interconnected notes, I’ve found, most often does not pay off for the enormous time investment required (some specific use cases aside); tags, links, etc. I have all found to be superfluous—any kind of grep integration in the editor is all that’s needed for finding things. I write in either markdown or Typst, because basic Typst is essentially the same as markdown anyway, and because I’ve found it very useful to keep notes in the same format I write longer-form documents in.

Newbie question: does this affect people using systemd-boot? Does anyone use systemd-boot?

My final straw was getting a new MacBook Air (I was at that point fine with how UNIX-y macOS was) and realizing I couldn’t dock the laptop to more than one external monitor without some weird hacky third-party software fix. Why, you ask? Well not at all because the laptop technically couldn’t do it, but because Apple said it can’t, because they want to overcharge you on a Pro.

I promptly returned the MacBook, bought a Framework on eBay, and learned NixOS.

10/10, I haven’t looked back since.

Depending on how old the iPod is, you might have some luck installing rockbox firmware on it.

But, in any case, yes, moving your music over will functionally be as if copying it to an external drive.

This is absolutely nuts—even macOS doesn’t have a single program that does all of this.

Love Minetest. Unfortunately, though, like with many other FOSS projects, it’s hard to find anyone else using it…

Anyone got a server for us lemmings?
