I used to have an online friend who never really texts me first unless I do. Since they’re a leftie, I wished them on Happy Left-handers Day and they replied that I don’t need to wish them, which I only did to spark some conversation. This put me off and I went “Alr I won’t bother texting you ever” and they went “Ok”.

Haven’t texted them in 3 months, neither did they (as they don’t ever). Idk who is the idiot here, me, she or both.

I don’t really like ending friendships from my side, so I might text them on her birthday and see how it goes.

Is Bluesky fediverse tho?

They call me from my own number? How does that work out?

Oh I see. Thanks for the clarification.

Same with Apple mail right? I never used an Apple device and was shocked to see them over Gmail because I thought Apple actually gives email service when I saw the graph

Sadly WhatsApp isn’t skippable where I live but thankfully Meta takes cautious approach enshittifiying it.

Yay we don’t have to work anymore! Good news right? Right?!

Mint was everywhere when I searched beginner linux distros. I tried Manjaro because my friend had it running and likes it a lot and we thought we can recreate issues and find solutions together if we are on same distro.

The thing with windows is that you have gui for everything and can find video solutions on YT easily which often work.

With Linux, you can’t get those as the user base is split in many different distros, DEs etc and much of the stuff you do is in terminal. Most of the time whenever I faced an issue, I would try to fix it with a solution I find which it would require another application and running that application causes another issue. I had this many times and only rarely fixed the issues I faced.

I had issues with starting with display colour calibration, speaker sound and any application that isn’t Linux native even if I got it from the Package Manager/Appcenter.

Last time I tried as trivial as changing a theme on linux, it broke my taskbar(idk what you call it in linux) and wouldn’t respond at all. I looked for solutions online and couldn’t find the solution as the forum threads keep closing before they arrive on a fix.

So I tried to fix it myself and changed to another theme. This theme doesn’t have the same issue but somehow it breaks the only game I play which used to run just fine before.

And that’s the last nail in the coffin for linux for me.

Is there anyway to permanently stop windows from updating? I tried few methods off YT but updates do not stop.

(No, don’t recommend me Linux. I have tried it(Mint and Manjaro) and it is way out of my skillset)

Oh no is it that time of that year already?!

Maybe I should do the things I’m planning to do all year.

I am getting to know that lemmy.ml guys are bad, so do you all avoid subbing to lemmy.ml communities? I have bunch of their communities subbed so not sure if I should move away or not.

0-100 I believe

Haven’t been using Google search in a long while and shifted completely to DDG. For me DDG gave straightforward and accurate results. If people want Google results they can try SearXng too. There’s Brave search as well.
