If you’re not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.

  • Heck ya to Fedora, glad to see it recommended for a first time user. It’s not much more difficult than Mint, but you can also get into the weeds instead of having to find a new distro after Mint. Mint basically has permanent training wheels, while with Fedora you can pop em off whenever it’s convient.

    Edit: Fedora is also a more up to date Alpine and it’s not directly controlled by Red Hat.






  • A trick I’ve learned for when this happens with SearXNG is to add “!web” to the search query. It provides a wider range of search engines and images, which specific ones can be selected in the settings. Like all things software, it takes a bit to adjust to a new interface but SearXNG allows users to control a lot more of the functionality.

















  • I mean, once the journey starts it’s not long before Linux over MacOS or Windows is a no brainer. Being Android is Linux based allows for a degoolged option to be equivalent to a fork. But sure, iOS is more private and secure out the box vs Android, yet with a few minutes spent in settitngs, Android quickly wins out. Degoogling and FOSS options are two peas in a pod, so might as well also get a pixel with degoogled android and cover all basis.
