After 5 years, that post is still on point.

@dvk @chris +1 for that. Sublime is the only editor I have and use.
@jp been using Zorin, because I like how polished it is, and also I like the fact they're keeping a slower pace. But I used Gnome 48 and the new Evolution client for weeks on Endeavour OS and I really liked them both. I'm a bit torn. I think I'll stay put for a while...
@jp I disliked Evolution the first time I saw it, and that's because I was still poisoned by the Apple UI guidelines. Now that I feel finally free, I love it. It's way better than Thunderbird in my opinion, and it's a joy, as it also tickles some nostalgia from my Eudora days.
With /e/OS I have a system-wide tracker blocker, which also includes an IP and geolocation spoofer.
Is there anything similar in LineageOS?
@chris probably move to Europe 😎
@chris @kel a few custom options, a vertical tab sidebar with live preview, different things in the options, and the fact that the devs seem on top of the situation.
@chris @kel and the legacy css theme is enabled by default in the configs, not opt-in
@kel @chris I suggest you try Waterfox as well. I've been running it for a couple of days and I quite like it.
@kel @chris I'm also following @dennyhenke that's blogging about his de-Appleing
I'm basically doing it in stealth mode for now, probably becuase I'm taking baby steps and doing it in my spare time for now.
@chris I truly hope this Framework event isn't about AI.
@jalefkowit yes, that's what I do now. I swap bits that are either malfunctioning, broken, or unsatisfactory. That is what I don't get the 'upgrade' thing now.
Even when my 10-year-old MBP actually died, I refused to give up, and found a new logic board on eBay (which, lucky me, had a more powerful CPU soldered in), so I still use it today, and it's even faster.
Maybe I'm just too old for this stuff, or I might have left capitalism without realising it.
lol, I'm serious, and genuinely looking for an answer. I thought maybe it's an American thing, but then it's not, as there was a specific time in my past when I used to do the same, and for the life of me, I CANNOT remember why, what was the motor.
It's like my brain had washed that away, overwriting the memory of it with *many* zeros.
@chris I'm following the event as well, but I want to ask, without being argumentative, why would you *need* to upgrade a computer that, if I remember correctly, you have had for more or less a couple years. Isn't the spirit of Framework based on repairability and longevity?
I'm seriously curious about what is/are the motive/s behind a will to 'upgrade' hardware nowadays, especially hardware that's still new.
@kel western societies do that for sure, on purpose, by design probably.
@chris ah ok, so it's a structural problem. got it. I can't wait to switch to it, and yet I'm okay with my current status quo. If I keep moving towards my current direction I might end up with a Nokia 3210.
what is the issue with fairphone in the US? structural or a matter of availability? just curious
@kel one day I'll tell you the amount of time they made me waste when I tried to change my currency and residency. That's also why I stopped selling with them fuckers. eBay and PayPal are next in the line of my own 'account graveyard'.
