Brew is the only thing that saves it somehow however that's only package manager with formulas.

MacOS is perfect for people that just want to install the software and use it (still out of the box).

But for even system configuration MacOS falls behind in many ways - I mean even in the settings. I use Ubuntu at my work and more people with Mac have DNS / Wireguard (VPN) problems than me.

My friend recently sold his Mac as he's very accustomed to tinkering and MacOS either didn't listen or broke. The ouf of the box experience is real but once you are ouf of this box (aka you need more customisation and configuration) it's not enough. But of course very Linux approach to MacOS.

Is anyone here running Linux Libre? (www.fsfla.org)
 

I would love to gain the idea that's possible what are the downsides and upsides. Based on that philosophy Nvidia is impossible right now.

Is there a Linux version that is similar to Freedom app? (freedom.to)
 

This app just starts some productivity session while forbidding some programs from starting. Is there a Linux and most importantly FOSS version of it?

Alternatives to Google Pixel Camera. (lemmy.ml)
 

I use basic Google Pixel Camera app that forces me to have Google Photos installed so I can view my photos. My workaround is just going to the gallery directly. I don't use GrapheneOS's camera as I've seen worse quality when comparing two. I heard of modded Google Camera's for specific devices. Any suggestions?

I'm grateful for being able to have a choice like Linux or even BSD family instead having only two proprietary choices: Windows or MacOS. (lemmy.ml)
 

That's all. I can't imagine how the world and also myself would look like without them.

What app do you use for backing up your files on Android? (lemmy.ml)
 

I use rsync normally but I want something similar for my Android (GrapheneOS) smartphone. I want to just click and backup everything that I set up earlier. For now I manually copy folders to one and then upload it to external drive. What are your recommendations?

What advertising slogan would you give for Linux? (lemmy.ml)
 

I though of:

Your hardware deserves better.

Also you can give some more realistic ones like my friend:

It just (not) works

What are your favorite privacy programs you use frequently? (lemmy.ml)
 

I use MullvadVPN, GrapheneOS and Linux but I also search for any more apps not like OSes. What'a your favorites?

Linux Sys Admins, do you work on Linux or Windows office laptops? (lemmy.ml)

I'm getting sick every day at this Microsoft Windows slowness and bloat. I am trying to use as much Linux VMs as possible. I feel so unproductive on Windows. I also tried installing Linux on the office laptop. The problem is that Windows is officialy supported and the Linux is DYI. Once the IT departament changes it will sync up with Windows but Linux can be broken and you are no longer able to work. Next job I want to have full Linux laptop or at least Mac.

Besides:

  • Microsoft Office
  • Active Directory
  • Some proxy and VPN bullshit

Everything seems manageable and even better on Linux.

What is your experience?

How to choose the best Linux hardware for PC Building? (linux-hardware.org)

I see the raise of popularity of Linux laptops so the hardware compatibility is ready out of the box. However I wonder how would I build PC right know that has budget - high end specification. For now I'm thinking

  • Case: does not matter
  • Fans: does not matter
  • PSU: does not matter
  • RAM: does not matter I guess?
  • Disks: does not matter I guess?
  • CPU: AMD / Intel - does not matter but I would prefer AMD
  • GPU: AMD / Intel / Nvidia - for gaming and Wayland - AMD, for AI, ML, CUDA and other first supported technologies - Nvidia.

And now the most confusing part for me - motherboard... Is there even some coreboot or libreboot motherboard for PC that supports "high end" hardware?

Let's just say also a purpose of this Linux PC. Choose any of these

  1. Blender 3D Animation rendering
  2. Gaming
  3. Local LLM running

If you have some good resources on this also let me know.
