I honestly didn’t realize how the fdroid deployment worked, and now I’m gonna be way less skeptical of apps I see there.

That a distro? I’ll look into it

I wish I could get steam to run on my Linux OS, it’ll only play like 3 of the games I want, and none of the VR ones

100% agree. Don’t get me wrong, zorin looks nice and I’ve considered trying it a couple times. But kubuntu is where it’s at. My brother is old school though, and has a Gentoo install he keeps going, but he gets the latest plasma, kubuntu is a major release behind.

There are options that get you latest, still on a Debian base, but it wasn’t as stable as kubuntu so I switched back.

Linux is the only thing that will really revive an old apple product, even if it runs macos pretty well still, you can’t get any of the apps to run because they’re no longer offered, and then if you can install an old one, it auto updates to a non-functional version. (This just happened to me)

I still can’t quit Windows entirely, visual studio is important to what I’m working on.

The good “creators” to follow for news generally provide a summary in Tiktok, then if you want to verify or learn more they have additional information and sources in their other locations (substack is a big one)

I can generally tell if it’s AI generated, and if I have any suspicion then I try to find other reports and real sources via Google searches and whatnot. Like I didn’t believe the gold trump statue, or the trump and Epstein statue were real.

There’s a great deal of real news that goes through the app. It’s the majority of the content I see.
