If you look closely it didn't, theres lots of little holes as it got higher. The way I avoided a total failure was through the pyramid pattern, since its more geometrically stable than just straight lines.

Microsoft also implemented the Wayland specification and it did zilch for adoption or growth of wayland. Let me put it another way, Chromebooks also adopted upstart and that has not had an impact on upstart use or adoption in the broader linux ecosystem.

Its more likely they're gonna use work done for desktop linux with minimal if any contribution backwards to things we care about.

I think my issue with Mint is the small team maintaining the cinnamon fork that clearly can't keep up with the desktop.

Otherwise mint is functionally Ubuntu. I preferred Debian for my stable stuff. I like arch currently because PKGBUILD was acomparatively easy package format to learn and modify. Rolling is nice but I've used Debian extensively as well.

Fightsticks as in custom controllers for modern (or retro) systems that are often associated with the fighting game community but also used for schmups or other arcade associated titles (or even just games that use digital controls only). Its got a modestly active community on reddit for sharing builds and mods and just projects or discussing parts. I do all of this over discord as well so its nbd.

I guess im just gonna help less people with their 3d printers now. I mostly want to keep up with arcade sticks and the subreddit didn't really seem to move unfortunately. So I'll still need to check back in every blue moon.

Most people heard about Lemmy on reddit, and heard about kbin on lemmy, possibly after they already made an account.

Im not going to not interact with Lemmy because of its developers but it was enough I decided id rather not be tied exclusively to their tankie ass politics.

It either has to be my current arch install or my Debian install before that. I might head back to Debian (sid) since it was close enough. I might swap over to Debian stable on my laptop over the current Ubuntu install though.
