gortbrownto Berkeley Software Distribution•Linux user wants to check out BSD - May I have a recommendation ?English2·7 months agoI second this. I have a Framework (which is even one they’ve said they’re trying to support) and it’s been getting better, but still a bit janky
gortbrownto Berkeley Software Distribution•Linux user wants to check out BSD - May I have a recommendation ?English3·7 months agoI started with a distro of FreeBSD called GhostBSD. It works pretty well out of the box, and is a good starting point for someone who’s just starting out with FreeBSD. NomadBSD is also a good option if you don’t mind running it from an external drive.
gortbrownto Linux@lemmy.ml•Is it just me or do you guys miss these type of skeuomorphic icons?2·8 months agoKinda, yeah! These kinda remind me of some of the icon packs I used on my jailbroken iPod Touch!
He want’s to do the same thing he did with the Teslas that spell S3XY. He’s going to buy Facebook and call it S, Reddit and call it 3, and LinkedIn and call it Y.
I honestly just did nix-env -i flatpak then rebooted, so I’m not sure…
Edit: Did it the configuration.nix way to make sure everything was in the path, and it works now. Thanks!
It’s the XFCE one. Not Whisker Menu, but the default one.
Yes, I did restart afterwards, and unfortunately it didn’t work.
That’s why I never got why TPUSA people go around “debating” people on college campuses. They never actually want a debate, they just want to tell you you’re wrong.
You might be able to find a super lightweight desktop distro out there (I think Damn Small Linux can run on those specs?) or you could repurpose it as a basic server of some sort like you mentioned. Unless you wanted to invest in some cheap old ram to throw in there and maybe make it a bit faster, then I think those would be your best options.
I’ve been using it on my Fedora laptop for the past week or so and it’s really nice, even in alpha 1! Can’t wait to see how it turns out fully finished!
I was so happy about this! Been using it on my work MacBook and have been excited to use it on my main laptop!
Windows 10 before I used Linux full-time, though I did try out Windows 11.

Out of the options you mentioned, Pixel with a custom rom (GrapheneOS, CalyxOS, etc.) is probably the best bet. Seconded by any Samsung that could run a custom rom, though I agree with others here that the hardware is better on the Pixels. Plus they have extra security hardware features that will be better. Of course, if things are weird with your telecom, that might effect things (trust me, been there with an Ubuntu Touch phone before.)
Another option you could look at depending on where you are is Murena’s phones. They have a bunch of options pre-flashed with their de-Googled rom /e/ os. Not my favorite rom, but still not bad! And of course those can be flashed with another rom if you want as well!
