  • Yes. I used Boost until the blackout (June 12th or something like that). That date I uninstalled it and didn’t log in anymore. Then I waited until June 30th just to see if they’ve changed their plan. They didn’t, so I replaced all my comments and then I deleted my account. From that date I created an account first on KBin but I didn’t like that they didn’t show which server the threads were actually on, so I migrated to Lemmy world with wefwef. So far, really happy with the experience.

    Just to reinforce what all the thread is saying: used Thinkpad in ebay. I would search for a x270/x280/t470/t480. This depends in screen size.

    Why these models? They are the last ones that allow you ti upgrade your RAM, so when you have a bit more money you can upgrade. Also, these are old but not ancient, so they can still be relevant for some time.

    On the other hand, if you have more budget, the best Linux laptops are the frame.work, but they’re expensive, although they’re reparable and upgradable, so I guess that depends on how you see it.

    Finally, Kali is not a daily use distro. If you have time to waste (or invest) then you can go hardcore and straight to Arch Linux. If you want to have an easier journey you can start with PopOs!

    Good luck on your journey!!


  • Another vouch for wefwef. I’ve been trying it since yesterday and it’s really good and fast.

    Regarding kbin, the main problem that I see is that it isn’t transparent about in which server a community (aka magazine), so there are lots of kbin self posts that actually are in other servers (like lemmy.world). Thats a problem when you’re trying to understand how this fediverse thing actually works.
