really? by the time I needed it, there were only .deb available, and they did not listed all their dependencies on Debian, only on Ubuntu, I had to look for their dependencies and install them manually, what a mess I made

did you know about pkgforge repo? it’s an interesting project however, even package managers for portable formats are sort of fragmented

I don’t like depending on GitHub so I don’t consider GPM, Soar and AM seem too similar… and I still have to understand what makes dbin stand out

my thoughts

• lol i just completely forgot about snaps
• Nix can’t be installed in the standard way on inmutable distros :(
• Homebrew is actually good, it’s exactly like your usual package manager and works with /home as a symlink, however it can take up a lot of storage since it pulls it’s own dependencies and that GCC thing is another one
• distrobox/toolbx have their usecases, but until things get better it can be used as a last resort
• and good old AppImages, I think they’re good for slow moving projects and games, but a large amount of them are not really portable, which defeats the purpose of AppImagws in the first place

this, even a tarball would have been better than a Ubuntu-only .deb

yay I think Flatpak has potential for CLI apps, they just need a nice way to expose aliases to the host actually, there are some CLI apps on Flathub already so I still don’t know how that “no terminal apps” criteria is handled

didn’t know sysext were so cumbersome

I usually don’t mind using apps made for another DE as long as their UIs are minimal enough for my taste

however, while I was using COSMIC I felt like it really needed a GUI Log Viewer, it’s the kind of thing that sound clearly tailored for the user base COSMIC aims to achieve

GNOME one is nice, but libcosmic apps handle COSMIC tiling better

not all of them are fruits tho 🤓☝️

cool to see this, now that Distroshelf is considering supporting Toolbx Silverblue will be more accesible with GUIs for its workflow

it’s okay to have questions but wanting to be respectful instead of just letting them hit them is really nice

suddenly aromantic

nice to see this community being active

well, OF must have offices so…

this. HeliBoard is quite good, it even has theming options to make it cute if you want to

whoa nice to see an Asahi user

I’ve read wonders about current Macs power efficiency, my dude’s looks like nothing in comparison haha

I’m still trying to understand the microblogging “paradigm”, any tips? I might try them again

they tried to evict him and got backlashed lol

oh no, it’s already happening… I must be ready

do you guys also eat first things with “non-matching” flavours? like, they interrupt because their flavour doesn’t mix and it’s so strong it’s the only thing you taste

the government said attackers impersonate Signal support staff and abuse this perceived trust to take over victims' accounts

the arguments they give for ditching Signal are basically present in every messaging platform, and people working in such high ranges shouldn’t be that vulnerable to social engineering attacks

is it TempleOS or something? 😭
