oh that’s really cool!

Suuuuper late answer, sorry. It is working perfectly for me (FF 122), I’m using Firefox exclusivery. It can be slow sometimes though and take several (tens of) seconds for the web application to load.
My recommendation? No. Don’t.
I’m an ex Windows user, current Linux and Mac user. Keyboard shortcuts on Linux are much closer to Windows conventions compared to macOS. I wouldn’t recommend using a Mac keyboard with Linux. I’d only recommend it if you want to use both Linux and macOS with the same keyboard (you will be happier in this case, because using macOS with a Windows keyboard sucks, vice versa).
If you don’t like the Windows key design, get a keyboard with a custom one.
For browsing on the desktop, I strongly recommend https://phtn.app!
That’s a long list of changes, wow.
Personally, I’m not considering Vanilla OS just yet. It does too many things in a custom way. I am however keeping an eye on the project, since they have interesting ideas and they’re making progress in the area of immutable distributions (which will be the future I figure).
I second the recommendation to use NTFS. I don’t have the same use cases as OP, but in my experience it works really well. Back in the days when I was using Windows, I had a system and a data partition (i.e. personal files, pictures, videos… you get it). When I switched to Linux, I kept my data partition and just mounted it on my Linux system. I started with dual boot and didn’t have any issues. No need to manually install a NTFS driver these days.
That’s a couple of years ago and my secondary SSD’s still that same old NTFS partition. Thought about moving to a Linux native filesystem, since I don’t use Windows anymore, but never had an actual reason to do it.
oh, Good luck with that. Make sure however to respect the users privacy and indexing preferences. People in the Fediverse are very privacy consious and not everyone likes their post scraped and indexed.
I’d start with the Mastodon docs, it’s a solid resource to get started.
While this chart certainly shows how dominant mastodon.social in the Fediverse is, I like this chart. It also shows how diverse the Fediverse is. For any other social network this graph would be a simple circle. For the Fediverse it shows 38 different servers, and apart from mastodon.social, the distribution seems quite fair.
Very good!
Biggest follower count.
Personally, I’m not interested in the type of posts you mention. However, I don’t mind it. In general I think it’s great to tell the world if you ditch Windows for Linux, because it shows other (Windows) users that they can do it, too.
Though I have to agree that for a dedicated Linux community, it doesn’t add too much value. If I think a post is a bad fit for the community, I vote it down.
It did take forever when I tried the last time. Literally hours.
Just installed NixOS with Wayland and Gnome the other day on my laptop with Nvidia card. I had to tune the config a bit, but it works flawless now – notably also with the offload command. That’s fine for me though because it saves considerable energy if the GPU only runs on request.
Apostrophe. The perfect, slick markdown editor.
Hey, how’s it going? Are you still working on it?
Sorry for this huge delay, sometimes RL takes over… I don’t know how relevant it still is. I’ll try anyway.
I think this could pose an issue. Many people in the Fediverse are very sensitive about informed consent — which cannot be satisfied by any opt-out mechanism. This is an issue for every bridge/search service, because with opt-in you will have way less users. I strongly recommend to go for opt-in however, you will be starkly criticized otherwise.
Yes, anybody could do that, or build something from scratch, but will meet strong opposition in the Fediserve, as we’ve seen more than once.
Can’t help here, sorry.
Nope, just a nerd who likes computery stuff like hex numbers and, obviously, coffee. No technical magic number I know of (maybe there still is…?).
