I honestly intend to but haven’t gotten around to it. I’m more comfortable with a one time donation but might look at recurring donations for KDE and Asahi when it makes sense for my budget. I use both daily and both projects are killing it as of late!
Very excited for this release!
Who in their right mind would pay for a dying social media platform? This reeks of desperation from a man trying to convince himself of his own supposed public image.
Reddit is no longer accessible through Apollo. That’s really it.
Yes, definitely. Maybe I feel like my contributions matter more since we are all trying to make this a viable platform? I dunno, but it’s definitely more fun interacting here than on reddit.
I miss these old 90s style buttons on websites. A much simpler time…
I’m really tired of the political class roping in entire nations in to conflict over things only rich and/or powerful people give a shit about. Most of the working and middle class just want to live their lives in peace without some game-theoretic geopolitical showdown happening at every turn in history. And this all over what? To say that our part of the map is bigger than yours? To say that we have access to these resources and they don’t? What’s the fucking point? We are all human and desperately need a better way of organizing our global society than stupid shit like this.
Still scroll reddit for certain communities, but the conversation here is refreshing and I find myself participating more, that’s a good thing. Lemmy needs sustained engagement more than a honeymoon phase. We will see once third-party apps shut down.
I actually just had my first successful Gentoo install. Compiling Gnome was… time-consuming, but the performance vs binary distros is definitely enviable. Fresh boot at idle on the desktop consumes only 560mb of ram on my machine, which I’ve never seen for what’s usually considered a heavy DE.
Stealth. I hate hiding and creeping around waiting for an NPC to move. It’s like, “oh, you want to play the game? How about not playing the game instead?” Infuriating.
As silly as it sounds, the new taskbar modification pop up. Dragging the taskbar from one side of the screen to another was a point of jank that took away from the polish of the desktop. The floating panel retaining proper proportions upon maximizing windows is also a nice fix.
I think I’m most looking forward to Plasma becoming more polished overall. I like that this release isn’t completely revolutionary like 4 to 5 was. It’s about removing things that don’t work that well and tightening up what does.
