Some random dude who likes turtles and minecraft.
The following is just my own assumptions, take with a grain of salt.
Phones are often taken out to perform a quick task, then stashed back in a pocket/bag many times a day. As such, being able to unlock a phone quickly is a rather useful feature.
On the other hand, laptops are usually taken out to be used for larger tasks, and as such, do not need to be unlocked as often.
Fingerprint scanners add less value to a laptop than they do a phone.
My dad got me a Linux laptop as a kid (I was 10 I think?), and I am so grateful that he did.
To be fair, I already had a huge passion for computing, and it meant that I would constantly toy around with Linux, breaking things and learning how to fix them.
I have been a Linux user ever since, and I feel have learnt so much about computing because of it.
(I started on Ubuntu 12.04, with the glorious Unity desktop)
Suyu has to be an ironic name right?
I’m a web dev, happy to lend a hand if need be.
adhd prolly idk
Using Rice/Ricing is perfectly fine. Words change meaning and evolve with different communities. In a Linux minded community such as this, you’ll be hard pressed to find people that will confuse Ricing for anything other than a fancy DE/WM.
Most people will understand Rice by the r/unixporn definition: https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/wiki/themeing/dictionary/#wiki_rice
I love xonotic!
Do you know why there’s KDE, XFCE and others? Because there’s also a lot of people who dislike GNOME.
If we are getting pedantic here, the above quote is clearly implying that alternatives exist and are actively developed because people dislike GNOME. Your statement does not take in to account the possibility that people just like the other alternatives, and may still like GNOME as well, or feel indifference towards it.
No one is claiming that GNOME has the superior desktop experience. Rather, GNOME has a more opinionated experience, that suits some people, and not others. For some people, it will be superior. For others, they will prefer KDE, XFCE etc.
Umm well akshually 🤓👆: KDE doesn’t exist because people don’t like GNOME lol. GNOME was made because KDE uses QT, which used to be proprietary.
unironically
wdym, its Tribblicious™️

Zerotier has been the best alternative in my experience.
