    The recent evolution is great and I’ve been a happy KDE user for many years, but my oh my is NetworkManager bad. It’s not good on all systems that use it under the hood, but I find it especially unintuitive and so outdated. The applet thing is fine (still suffers from weird behaviour from NM’s core), but actual settings screen drives me crazy… The Bluetooth one should also receive some love, but it’s decent. NM needs serious revision.

    This. And to add to what other commenters have said, by using Bitwarden and paying for their Premium plan (very cheap, just $10/year), even if you don’t use all their features, you’re supporting a good project. It’s critical infrastructure, I think the price is more than fair.
    Either way, you should always make periodic backups from any cloud service you use, encrypted of course.


  • This would be really neat, however it’s not trivial to sell those everywhere. If you’re lucky to live in a country or even city where they can get those to, you’re golden. If you don’t, you’re screwed.

    Unfortunately, as much as I love the idea and tech behind Monero, actually accepting it is not practical at all, as the coin is used a lot for criminal stuff and is thus very strictly followed by many agencies. We don’t know if they can break it, but even they don’t, businesses can get a rough treatment just for accepting Monero. It’s perfectly understandable if they’d rather not do it.

    This is a good suggestion. Docker is more mature and has more resources, so it’s better to learn the ins and outs of containers. After getting comfortable with it, you can move to Podman and have a much better time tackling its peculiarities regarding permissions and rootless.

    I used Docker for years and only recently decided to give Podman a try, porting my Lemmy instance to it.


  • How can I make using Arch Linux my personality

    That cracked me up x)

    Anyway, I’d say it’s good that the OS is out of your way once set it up. Even though I don’t use Arch directly, I like how comprehensive the AUR is (even though there may be repositories more packages, like nix and whatnot), think the ArchWiki (like the GentooWiki) is a very useful resource, even if you use a completely different system.
