Oh wow, won't you look at that! πŸ˜… Well that jsut shows my lack of experience I guess. I swear I heard it somewhere and just believed it was. Or maybe I misread and read that MicroOS and Aeon was, therefore assumed Tumbleweed was... My bad!

Edit: Tumbleweed is not immutable, you learn something new every day, especially from your mistakes πŸ™ƒ (it's still a really nice distro)

Personally really happy with my choice of ~Immutable~ Distro: OpenSuse Tumbleweed. To me, who is half a year into using linux, its very convenient to use an immutable system as IF i were to do a wrong command or whatever its super easy to rollback the system (at least on Suse as it uses btrfs-filesystem). Another thing worth mentioning which is also why I chose to go with immutable is that it really teaches you "the good standards" of where to tinker with files and where not to, at least for a beginner like myself this is very nice.

Didn't know about Tide, super neat! ✨

Good to know, but how come in the video he talks about letting people modify it as they please? If its only "viewable" then this doesn't hold up? Or am I missing something?

  • OpenSuse
  • Debian
  • Alpine

Would be the three I'd choose from atleast.

This has totally slipped my eyes for so long! Thanks 😊

[–] Fjor@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

although sadly true, it still works quite reliably for me at least.

Very nice and clean! What editor/setup have you got at the bottom?

And supported creations that deserves to be supported ✨

[–] Fjor@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

Yeah it seems quite similar to Figma which I have a lot of experience with, so at least it could be a good alternative for that :)

Appreciate it, but yeah those first, although great tools, I believe it would take a long time to get pretty presentations up and running quickly. Thanks though!

 

Hi there, simply looking for alternatives to Canva. I use this to make quick and easy presentations for Uni. But would like to find opensource alternatives. I am aware of the Libre and OpenOffice Suites ofc, but are there any other ones more similar to Canva?

Appreciate any suggestions.

To get it out of the way; Obviously, yes this chromium and most of us agree that anything Firefox-like is the way to go. This post is not a "Vivaldi is better than xyz", this is a, "give it a try" type of post. So, hear me out fellow privacists.

Edit; Yes Vivaldi is not open source, but it is source available. This topic is talked about in the interview and I encourage anyone who is discouraged to at least hear the CEO out when during the talk he had with Techlore.

I recently downloaded this Vivaldi Browser based on this rather good and open interview between Techlore and Vivaldi CEO.

So this is a browser developed in Norway, and to my surprise this was a super pleasant experience! The browser is very very fast, its super customizable and has hands down the best tab management I've ever tried (seriously wish Firefox had this). It also has some really a neat shortcut system for quick access to different actions. Furthermore they seem to care about all linux distros, with support also for ARM.

I've only used the browser for a few days, but the experience is so fluent I just had to share a post about it. The team seem really genuine and open. There are also no third party investors involved with Vivaldi. It is owned by all the employees.

So if you need or want to try a fresh browser I highly highly suggest to give Vivaldi a try: https://vivaldi.com/

 

I thought it could be a good idea to gather valuable resources for people to use whilst foraging! Feel free to comment other suggestions and I'll expand the list periodically. For now the list is minimal and general, but if/when it expands i might categorize them based on region or field of interest. Give us your best resources! πŸ“š

Hello, I created this community has the previous one disappeared out of thin air(?). I have not ran a community before, but I assume it should be all good as most people looking for this type of community are rather down to earth. badumn tsss.

Anyways! Share your latest adventures, findings, tips or tricks!

Let's see if we can grow this community together <3

Edit; media uploads seem to be unavailable at the moment on this instance, so will have to wait with adding icon and banner for this community until that is back. This also means that if your account is on lemm.ee you need to upload pictures to a third party and then post the link in your post :)

Hello good nerds,

I'm still in the distrohopping era and have decided to go for Tumbleweed as my second distro after running Garuda as my first distro. I recently came across Hyprland, and it looks rather nice and fluent. Got a few questions:

  • Does anyone have any prior experience to installing Hyprland on OpenSuse?
  • Is it better to run KDE for this or GNOME?
  • Is Hyprland overrated? Are there any other alternatives?

Thanks for any insights!

Hey there, I'm a long time firefox user and have never ever had any problems with firefox. But after the latest update, the browser will now just randomly freeze and it happens very often. It will freeze for over a minute at the time, making it impossible to use the browser. I've refreshed firefox as suggested on their websites, I've reinstalled but still all the same. Anyone got any suggestions to what I can try? Or anyone else experienced the same thing?

Edit: Using Garuda Linux

Solved: It's not firefox, it's Garuda issues. Thanks for the tips and tricks everyone gave πŸ™Œ
