Glad I made the switch back to FireFox a year or two ago. As a Dev, I was entrenched in Chrome and it wasn’t an easy move but with the path Google are currently treading around ad serving, blocking the ad blocks etc. I feel I made the right choice…
I have converted over to Linux for a huge portion of my work flow but there is still the 20% I either can’t efficiently replicate or there is just not the software I need.
Where possible I choose to work outside of Microsoft, Google and Apple but to keep a roof over one’s head, I must endure too.
I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I...
Literally have not been back since I decided to leave before the blackout.
Considering incised to spen hours a day s rolling that place, I haven’t missed it and just moved on. 12years or more I was a regular contributor and viewer and quit cold turkey style :)
I technically started with Steam Deck and finally took the plunge of partitioning my daily driver to install Linux Mint back a few weeks ago.
No regrets…
I’m a developer (web app predominantly ) and find I can use it for about 80% - 85% of my daily workflow. Things I miss and can’t substitute are mainly around image editing / vector editing where GIMP and InkScape are just not there for the way I work.
Loving my time with it and would highly recommend anyone on the fence take the dive and give Mint a go. It’s incredibly familiar the moment you boot it :)
Jerboa’s last update or so has become really buggy for me and doesn’t work the vast majority of the time. I have since dropped it and moved to connect which seems a lot more stable :)
I have given up on Logic when dealing with clients… Trying to figure out what they actually mean is never what they actually mean.
It seriously blows my mind that some of these people are like CEO status of huge companies. How they even function in every day society and remember to breath is beyond me.

Got this notification when I opened Chrome when coming back to my desk after lunch....
Be honest, do you still use reddit?
I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits.

Which app is better? Jerboa or Connect?
I started with Jerboa and then I switched to Connect. They both feel comparable…maybe Connect is a tad more intuitive.
Sometimes good to know, you're not alone! (lemmy.ml)
Remember seeing this and thinking we all have that one client…
