What makes it great from my POV is the serious thread model. It helps to know what is happening, keep context, focus on what matters for you (including notificacions), mark as done, etc.
It is not federated, but it is Free Software and we can self-host it. Anyone else tried it? Do we want to make a test?
@ntnsndr Sadly, I believe that yes. :( Also, you cannot search for info in that image. So it takes space + it isn't accessible. All in the sake of... can someone remind me? ;DDD
I've loved it too, but some decisions were a bit too much for me. However, I wanted to stay near (and never use chrome) so I'm using Librewolf. And I'm loving it. :)
The book cited before has something about non-rivalrous resources in #Commons. Also, many other great insights and patterns learned from many different Commons around the world.
For those interested in advancements in Commons after Ostrom , Silke Helfrich and David Bollier did great work on those patterns and more in their excellent book http://freefairandalive.org/

This can be done with strategies as "pool, cap and divide up" or "pool, cap and mutualize", or "pool and share" any of other many existent possibilities as they been doing for millennia before capitalism even existed.
@humanetech Why must it be Ubuntu? Other great distributions may not have that issue... (I use Debian, but there are many great Linuxes in the wild). :blobaww:
I never did distro hopping and stabilized on Debian a long time ago so, completely understood (even if it was a fun time tasting a few candy). ;P
If Ubuntu is your choice and you want a productive machine ASAP, I've heard good things on that front about Linux Mint, and it's community is not small.
