Im having difficulty finding names I like. I need two - three names that roll off the tongue and wouldn’t be out of place with a long hyphenated surname....
I can get the clients to fetch the e-mail atm, the issue is what I wrote above, is there a simple way to get thunderbird to fetch them from the moment I turn the pc on and give me notifications about it?
As of this second I have all 3 clients I mentioned fetching e-mails while they’re open. However none of them fetch e-mails in the background, and geary/evolution seem to just… break sometimes and I have to redo the process to add business gmail/proton accounts to it.
My main issue is the fetching e-mails in the background though, it doesnt feel to me as if it should be something that difficult or niche.
It’s a game where some people play good guys some people play bad guys. And every day someone is put up for trial and you have to convince everyone you are a good guy so you don’t get hanged.
So. I was put for trial and made a very laboured argument of why I had to be a good guy and shouldn’t be hanged.
I’ve been seeing all these posts about Linux lately, and looking at them, I can honestly see the appeal. I’d love having so much autonomy over the OS I use, and customize it however I like, even having so many options to choose from when it comes to distros. The only thing holding me back, however, is incompatibility issues....
I’ve tried using firefox’s built in dark theme but it doesn’t quite do enough. I’m looking for a dark reader that’ll invert most websites’ white background and dark text.

I’ve been using Fedora for months now and it was my first time using Linux. Is probably the most modern and best working distro right now.
I’m not gonna suggest to you to switch distros or whatever. But most of the modern feeling you are seeing is just the DE, which you can use whichever one with whatever distro. As far as Fedora’s own stack the centerpiece which is the package manager is actually really slow comparing with anything else.
You think Arch or Mint wouldn’t become just like Red Hat if they had the user’s numbers?
Yeah. They wouldn’t. I think they actually already do have higher number of users than fedora actually. If they don’t, then Debian surely does.
Red Hat is a for profit company, and their first goal will always be that even if that means squeezing you and making the experience worse for you.
Community distros are explicitly about the community and not about profit, and it works quite well.
if a distro becomes really really popular is inevitable that sooner or later some kind of corporation will put it’s hands on it.
Not how it works. And more so in general if you’re interested and curious do some reading on copyleft licenses. It’s truly a marvelous thing and they work quite well at keeping projects open.
I know Fedora is mostly just Gnome, but you can’t deny it’s probably the best implementation of it in any distro.
I absolutely can, what. It’s about the same as all other distros that don’t add much or at all to the upstream version.
And Arch is definitely not easy to install for a newbie.
If you are interested in trying it some time, once you’re in the installer type “archinstall”. It’s a default installation script that makes it easy to install. There isn’t nearly as much upkeep as the memes would suggest.

Baker’s testimony shows that Mozilla depends so much on its deal with Google for revenue that “the biggest loser of a DOJ win in the Google case would be Mozilla.”
Not gonna lie. This is the kind of tech illiteracy people are talking about.
In the specific case of setting up Jellyfin, it takes about 10 minutes, you do it once, never have to do it again, and it has no programming skill requirement to it.
These services google offer thrive on ignorance of alternatives, they’re not any easier to use than the alternatives.

It’s just time. Might suck for a little time or a long time though.
If you want to make it suck for as little as possible just go no contact and don’t snoop. It really is as simple as that. Although I’m very aware it’s a hard thing to do.
