Is the out-of-the-box quality of desktop-focused Linux distros declining recently?
  • I just did a full wipe of my system to try out Fedora KDE, XFCE & Budgie spins (I finally got fed up with Gnome not being what I wanted anymore after like 15 years of using it as my preferred DE) and didn't really have the same experience at all - even Fedora XFCE which you say was completely broken was working fine for me. I haven't run anything other than Fedora in a long time though so I can't really speak to the out of the box experience on other distros.

    which app do you guys use for android?
  • yeah I know, it's still missing kinda basic stuff like moderator tools (or if they're there I can't find them, which is another problem) and I find the overall UI less intuitive than the web app. I know it's in the early stages and I'm not trying to shit on the app or devs in any way. just doesn't seem like the best way to use the platform at the moment.

  • Red Rocks Jam Mix!
  • awesome, gonna throw this on when I finish the GD show I'm listening to right now, I love these "just jams" type mixes. I am slowly coming around to Gizz as a jammy band, Magenta Mountain from Red Rocks is killer.

  • How do you obtain your music?
  • I actually use archive.org for a lot of live concert recordings. bands like the Grateful Dead and Phish have been allowing/sort of encouraging fans to record and freely share their concerts for a long time and it’s all just out there to listen to and download as much as you want. there’s also the official streaming services like nugs.net and LivePhish for higher quality professionally recorded concerts, the subscription is kind of pricey but I think the artists get a better cut than on regular streaming services.

    other than that I do use Spotify a bit and try to buy stuff on Bandcamp to support the artists when I can.

  • Tender Situation 12/10/22 The Met Philadelphia

    I've seen them play Tender Situation live so many times but this one felt different. I love how pretty and uh, well, tender this song has become compared to the original Pure Guava version. Really hope they do another two nights in Philly this December like they have the past two years.

    What value did you get from Reddit that you hope to realize or expand upon here?
  • definitely, the doom n gloom attitude on my city's subreddit really bugs me actually. hoping when a Lemmy community for it pops up we can avoid that. but regardless it's a great way to find out about local events or cool restaurants to try or just fun stuff that's a little more off the beaten path

  • What value did you get from Reddit that you hope to realize or expand upon here?
  • music discovery/discussion. I found so much cool music on reddit communities for bands or genres I like

    resources for learning about & discussing some of my hobbies and interests like FOSS software, Linux, gaming, guitar etc

    communities for people local to the city/state I live in

  • Subreddits you are going to miss?
  • I'm optimistic about the infosec/sysadmin etc communities on here growing pretty quickly, it'll still take a while for them to get to the level they were at on reddit but I feel like they'll grow faster than some of the other stuff on here

  • Grateful Dead community

    A community for Deadheads on Lemmy. Feel free to post music, discussion, memes, articles and anything else related to the Grateful Dead or the band members’ side projects. Only a couple quick rules, I think most should be obvious anyway: 1. Stay on topic - keep posts Dead related 2. Keep disagreemen...
