Matrix doesn’t store your ongoing conversation in plaintext. It’s encrypted by default.

Maybe it needs a rebranding. If people have heard of linux, they think it’s for devs, IT nerds, too complicated, etc. Most of the people just have never heard of linux because they don’t look out for it. Most people don’t know what FOSS is, etc. People just don’t know that their OS is spying on them. Chromeos is linux, it’s in every store. Linux made it. Gnu didn’t.

Like sidebery? Just install one you like from the addons

You can just install an addon for that but it’d be great if that would come with ff, I agree.

A normal person should not have to deal with different distros. The difference in many distros is so small, people don’t even notice. People care about the desktop environment. I started with ubuntu and if ubuntu wouldn’t have ten thousand different ways of installing apps, and oftentimes you have to use the method the dev chose, I wouldn’t have distro hopped until I got to fedora. Fedora is amazing but a normal end user who browses the web won’t notice a big difference between the systems.

To run linux on a banana, you have to adapt it. To run macos on a banana, you have to crack it and fiddle around and get a psychiatrist and work on it full time. Linux makes it easier for you. Apple forbids you to install it on a banana. Fuck apple.

Where did you get that the T stands for Tyrannosaurus? 😂

It looks like a T, that’s why it’s called T shirt, imo, no source either.

Fedora.

I can highly recommend fedora to a newbie. It’s easier to use than ubuntu. It doesn’t come with snaps. You only need one or two methods of installing apps. It’s safe. It’s well written. It’s supported very well. It’s updated frequently. It incorporates innovative technology.

Opensuse and EndeaverOS are also very nice.
