It’s the IKEA effect. You tend to like something more if you built it yourself.
… and you understand it more when you build something by yourself, so it’s easier for you to fix it when it’s broken.
If something works, don’t change it. And GitHub, not being ideal, works pretty well.
IMO one of the most important features
The main problem is that mobile OS is simply not useful without banking or government apps and they won’t ever appear on FOSS systems because giving control to user is exactly the opposite of what’s in their interest.


because of clickbait
ofc I could even send raw api requests, but sometimes it’s good to have a nice GUI that “just works”.
Specifically I’m looking for something that could handle not only text responses, but also attachments, speech recognition and MCP support.
Taking advantage of the fact that this thread became popular, question to all of you guys: do you recommend some other open source LLM front ends?
As long as they are free and open source, I don’t care.
Using Lemmy as a blog is an interesting idea, because it allows to distribute your posts to other users timelines easily, but does it do well in terms of cost of self hosting? How much more computational work does enabling federation require?
For start definitely Linux Mint. It is stable, has strong support, works out of the box.


Thanks, that might be helpful. Is this bug related to VirtualBox installation or Raspberry Pi?
Have you reported this bug somewhere? It might be a good idea to let nixos team know this problem occurs


For now I use Mint + etckeeper + Timeshift as a form of backup, but I have never had a courage nor need to “try it” and actually restore state 😆


My dream is to have entire operating system state stored as configuration, tracked by a git repo. To be able to know exactly what changed when, to revert back to whatever state I want and quickly copy setup from one device to another. So naturally NixOS caught my attention. I tried it before, once on Virtual Box VM and once on Raspberry Pi and I failed with installation of it on both of them, my weekend was too short :D It was a few years ago, it might get better now.


Isn’t profile management introduced like right now in the same release?


I have read this post’s description and didn’t even open a link, since it didn’t sound interesting. But two big features are introduced in this release: **tab groups and profile management **


Why do everyone emphasize the fact that it is Rust based? What difference does it make? Personally, I don’t care whether it’s written in Rust, Cobol or Brainfuck. Badly written software would be buggy no matter the language.
Pretty good article, went into some technical stuff, which surprised me as in Linux world I’m used to articles discussing changes in wallpapers between different distro releases :D
This attitude is plainly wrong. If you use Linux because it is free as “free of charge” then you are missing a point. You should use it because it is open.
I would even say that they should contribute the same amount of money to organisations that actually develop a software that are going to use. Because they will certainly need support and security patches and this will never be free
