I love KDE. It’s got easy to use power user features and is very robust.

Possibly, but that’s a much smaller project being run by 1 guy. Linux has a lot more people and reviews involved.

My first thought is that this was to make Linux palatable to western regulations, like how companies can’t use Kaspersky anymore. Stupid if I’m right because it’s not like the fsb is going to sneak spyware into Linux.

Edit: Linus commented on this and I was right: https://lemmy.world/comment/13034386

FreeFileSync detects moves and changes quickly without rereading the whole file. The first time you sync it will read every file to hash them first, this takes a long time but subsequent syncs will be fast.

Nate is the man, he hangs out in the keebuser help matrix channel and is a fuckin boss!

It’s easy to backport newer software to Debian stable: https://wiki.debian.org/SimpleBackportCreation#Install_Debian_packaging_tools

I had to do this with transmission-daemon when the stable version had a nasty memory leak. I use Debian on all my secondary computers, the ones where I don’t need the newest software and don’t want to fuck with it and have it break.

Buy a refurb, they’re cheap and you’ll be able to find something you like. My current laptop is around 10 years old with 4G RAM and a friggin’ modem port and VGA!

If you’re using wifi, you’re technically doing it right now!

Why not? I already did it and it works great.

Damn I had no idea Stallman could get down like that! I really hope he beats the fuck out of cancer and grows his hair back.
