Linux Setup

I set up Linux as an operating system on my computer yesterday, in an attempt to move away from American big tech corporations.

At first, setting it up feels a big technical, and might be a bit daunting for non-technical folks. but once installed, I found using it rather smooth and natural.

Not all programs are available for Linux OS, so it might not be a solution for everyone. Also, there is the possibility to install it as a dual OS, to have the choice between Linux and Windows at start up.

Below, Linux's logo. Not a lemur, but penguins are cute too.

C'est Linux Mint Cinnamon. Oui, c'est ma toute première utilisation de Linux. J'ai utilisé Windows toute ma vie, depuis Windows 98. Il me semble avoir entendu parlé de Fedora. Et toi, tu utilises Linux depuis combien de temps ? Tu en es satisait en général ?

Linux Mint est un très bon choix. Elle est basée sur Ubuntu, c'est du solide : cette instance de Friendica roule d'ailleurs sur Ubuntu. Je suis sur Windows pour le boulot, Mac pour la musique, et Fedora/Gnome pour le reste. J'ai installé openSUSE en 2004, puis j'ai appris tranquillement à me sentir à l'aise. Aujourd'hui, la bête est beaucoup plus facile à apprivoiser. En tout cas, j'espère que tu apprécieras !

Merci pour l'encouragement. Ma première motivation qui m'a poussé à faire le changement, cétait de ne plus utiliser des produits et outils créés par des compagnies américaines de technologie. Mais pour le moment, ca va, ca me plait. Je pense qu'il a beaucoup de potentiel pour le dévelopement des technologies open-source.
To nom d'utilisateur c'est Essi Parent, tu as des enfants ?

What's Saving My Life Today
1. Loop earplugs - it's so noisy at work!
2. #friday afternoons - just the thought of the cozy quiet house is inspiring!
3. The hashtag #poetry ... There are still beautiful thoughts out there.
4. Snow covered lilac tree views out my back deck doors.

I wasn't familiar with the use of hashtags in this site, thanks for the tip.

Hi,
My name is Enea, 35, from France.
I don't know much about lemurs, but I like the idea of the lost continent of Lemuria.

I just joined the lemur space today, and I am getting to know the Fediverse. I also joined a Peertube instance a few days ago. I am looking to move away from centralized social media.

Not the kind of bird I expected around the feeder, but welcome!

New!
Hi! I'm a new Friendica :) Very curious about this platform.

Lemurs.space has been down for three hours today. I don't know why it went offline... and why it went back online. Investigating the logs is in the todo list. Sorry about that, lemurs

Why does the global directory list less people than it did a few days ago? By a lot?

I'm still learning how ActivityPub works. To avoid overloading the server, I limited the global community to the most used servers of the Fediverse, but I think it should also be populated with servers our users are connected to. I have figured out that the minimum server plan was not enough to run Friendica, so I upgraded the plan and hope that the global feed with run smoother...

Will This Be the Place?
Will this be that mystical place where we can authentically connect on mutual interests and respectfully engage in edifying conversation?
Oh man oh man I hope so!
Throw me your best thrifting find stories, the latest plant you grew, something that made you smile, a breakthrough you had or almost had, a place you struggle, a quote you love, a slice of beauty you noticed, an injustice you want to genuinely talk about, a memory of your Gran, a picture of the weather. Just whatever it is, be #thoughtful be #kind, be #authentic, and you're my people ❣️
Let's make this a GOOD - and INTERESTING! - place 😘

We had a beautiful snowy day here in Sherbrooke (Québec) and it was quite relaxing to come back home after work (teaching maths) + gym. The picture taken by Vincent Vallières yesterday give a feel of what it looks like these days.

Many Fediverse instances, like lemurs.space, have a strong stance against sharing false or misleading content. Welcome, Snopes!
