I was actually scrolling through to see if anyone posted anything about the outage hahaha. Do they make announcement posts to warn about an outage for Lemmy version updates?
Right on man! Cybersecurity is such a cool thing, I’m on the software engineering side of things but looking at how to break software has always intrigued me. Good luck!!
If you go into Arch knowing that you will probably need to spend more time on things that show up by default on other distributions and are okay with spending more time on the command line then you could be fine with Arch. Going through the basic Arch installation process leaves you with just the command line present, you'll need to install your desktop environment of choice, along with any other software like steam or discord. Arch is rolling release so you get bleeding edge access to package updates, it's great for staying up to date but it can sometimes lead to some packages breaking or some other system failure, I kept an eye on arch forums before updating to see if anything broke and what the fixes could be. For some it might be tedious to do those things and that's okay, there are other distributions like Mint, Fedora, etc that will provide a less complicated experience
…how many of you will stay? Personally, I wiped my Reddit history and deleted my account, so I’m definitely here to stay. I can see, however, that a number of people see Lemmy more as a distraction until the blackout is over. I wonder what that number would be.
Which OS are you on, android or IOS? On android I’m using Jerboa and it’s honestly quite a nice app for being in the alpha stage, didn’t check to see if it’s on IOS as well
Why is Lemmy World down?
Why do the instances keep going down? It makes me think that this is not a reliable social network, but the alternatives are not as good.
