Thinking they haven’t gone too far is not the same as thinking they haven’t gone far enough, so no. Not an alternative Title.

I wasn’t sure about the state of Slowroll. In terms of stability, Tumbleweed ist absolutely fine. It’s the less frequent, but not super low frequent update cycle that’s interesting to me. I could always just ignore updates on TW, but I’ve got the urge to run the updates if there are any.

It’s available, but still experimental I think.

I’m running TW and it’s great. If you don’t want a rolling release, OpenSUSE created Slowroll, that is supposed to release major updates every one or two months, which would probably be my go to if I were to start over.

For work that’s one thing, but from what I read here, there’s a whole bunch of people running around with multitools on their belts in their private time.

Well, sure I do have to fix something around the house or something like that, but then I got my trusty toolbox with all the stuff I need, so I have no need for multitools on my belt.

It’s a common thing I read on here. All the swiss pocket knives, Leatherman and flashlights. What are you people doing with those? I cannot remember the last time one of these items has been relevant to me.

I tried it and somehow I cannot wrap my head around how this works. My head wants folder structure.

I am using it as both. I try to adapt Zettelkasten with todos, inbox and a personal knowledgebase, but also try to manage my Meeting notes, Project information etc. I loved the idea of Obsidian, but wanted to use FOSS stuff, but damn, Obsidian is great and I always feel a little annoyed by Foam+VS Code because it constantly fucks up my tabs layout, closes the graph and, coming from Notion too, is not as fluent.

@SurpriseCandid8978@lemmy.ca mentioned Anytype and I tried it this morning, but I cannot wrap my head around how to properly implement Zettelkasten and something like a folder structure so I think I’ll drop it, even though I was really interestet.

A coworker gave me a tour of Obisian just now and the features it has make it hard to avoid.

But Foam is. It’s roughly the same as obsidian and it really helps structure my work.

But people who don’t use adblockers aren’t the target if anti adblock stuff in the first place.

Arc is, I think, not particularly a privacy focused Browser, but I only use Mac at work and privacy ain’t my main concern there. So privacy aside and a little tear shed that it’s not FF based, Arc is just great.

Phew, I just started looking for my iPhone I don’t have. Brackets saved my sanity.

tbh: she probably clicks on the thing that says “INTERNET” and thats it. I’ve been setting up a few computers in my family for people 50+ and they mostly don’t even know the name of the program they use and mix it all up. I then just install a program and prefix the shortcut with the service. Like “MAIL Outlook”, “INTERNET Firefox” so they know where to go.

Have a look at Tumbleweed with KDE.

I’ve been in your shoes a few months ago. I tried a few distros in VMs and ended up using OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. It comes with different GUIs and I decided for KDE. As a beginner TW helped me with the built in snapshots mechanism. So before I did anything, I took a snapshot, did it, and if I fucked up, I could easily rollback and try again. Since TW is a rolling release, I now make a snapshot before and after the system update So I always have some stable Rollback snapshots. Gives me so much safety to fiddle around and learn more about Linux. Been loving it so far.

Make heavy use of ChatGPT. I’ve been chatting about Linux with it for months now.
