I’m in the process of switching from Ubuntu/Mint to Fedora. I’m trying it on my laptop first; if that goes well, I’ve got 2 others to switch over.

Mastodon is still confusing to me. But that’s probably because I’ve never been on Twitter, FB, Insta, etc.

https://tchncs.de/en/ has a pretty good landing page.

It’s not so focused on the US. I live in the US and I’m getting tired of hearing about us.

Nice video. Looking at those instance names, I can pretty much tell the era when this video was made. I’m a vlemmy orphan.

I forgot about HW acceleration. Yeah, that is totally on Mozilla.

But I’ll admit I’m not a web dev. I just took the basic courses in school; HTML/JS/PHP, etc. I learned enough to know I wasn’t gonna be good at it. :)

I blame Google. Google “contributed” to the HTML 5 standard, and what we ended up with is a standard so complex and convoluted that it’s nearly impossible to make a fully capable browser without using Chromium code.

They didn’t violate open source rules, but they weaponized it to kill off independent browsers. Just my 2¢.

Seems like that should be illegal, like changing the odometer on a car, but what do I know.

Nice guide. I’m glad to see they mentioned GPU switching. It’s really underrated.

And here I was complaining about cheeseburger.social going down. Our user count was well into the dozens. Dozens!
