@notTheCat @linux I haven’t tried this but I think a shared boot partition and one installation of grub (I suppose the version you like the most, if you have a preference). You might even want to install grub from neither and do it by hand, just to make sure they won’t mess it up. About shared home: not sure. It will work - I just don’t know how many little oddities there will be.

EFI partition can be deleted and re-created.

@zaknenou @privacy it usually uses Diffie-Hellman key exchange which generates a shared key without revealing it to anyone. There are other ways to do it too.

@sab @prowess2956 @harsh3466 now you have two problems, but you don’t know it yet

@JoMiran @linux Bitwig Studio is also a non-open-source DAW which works on Linux.

@weketi6945 “Many of the features which were removed from GNOME like desktop icons and system tray was because their code was complicated so they just removed them.”

holy hell, they removed DESKTOP ICONS? Gnome is a joke.

@weketi6945 So CSD is the only thing that universally works. If you do not implement your own close buttons in your app, GNOME users won’t be able to close your app. Of course the GNOME ToolKit has built-in close buttons. This is stupid because you shouldn’t have to use the GNOME ToolKit.

One way this could resolve is that half the apps won’t draw CSD, and won’t be closeable on GNOME, and enough people will complain to GNOME that they add SSDs, or they will stop using GNOME.

Another way it could resolve is that Wayland doesn’t catch on because “close buttons are broken.”

@theshatterstone54 @linux Client-side decorations are such a ridiculously stupid design decision they make the whole Wayland design suspect.

@Sage_the_Lawyer @linux I don’t think selling is how it works. You have to be frustrated enough to seek out alternatives to the mainstream, then you find Linux and try it for yourself and it works okay.

Things made by billion dollar companies with a profit motive are almost always going to be better than things made by random people in their spare time - except in areas like privacy.

You’re allowed to try it out before committing to it though.

@fafok20662 @linux Not as long as it’s constrained by an open source license, but it’s likely going to follow the sqlite model where you take it or leave it, with no feedback. Except it won’t be as high quality and alternative-less as sqlite.

@TCB13 services aren’t systemd-related just because they are launched by systemd.

@TCB13 @linux Everything is systemd in the future. This has nothing to do with systemd. It could as well have been called targetdiskd.

@pjhenry1216 @zquestz @dingus are you seriously asking why it’s okay to let IBM sabotage Hitler?

go on, show us the threatening email

@skullgiver Yes, there are many ways to make sure your server connects to Tor and I2P sites. But that’s what the guy who ISN’T running a Tor/I2P site has to do, to federate with the Tor/I2P site. If you’re running the Tor/I2P site you can’t really do much on your side to enable federation.

Cloudflare won’t help because you need inbound connections. Some VPNs support *transient* port mapping designed for BitTorrent, but good luck trying to claim a stable port number for any significant length of time, never mind port 443 (which I’m sure is outside of the allocation range anyway). You’d have more luck trying to find a VPS provider crazy enough to let you pay anonymously with cryptocurrency with just a pinky promise that you’re not hosting child porn. Or just don’t federate.

@skullgiver @Fonz It is possible; you have to set it up yourself and you won’t federate with many places.

Hosting Lemmy or Mastodon on Tor or I2P isn’t hard; you just host it, and link your Tor/I2P daemon to it same as any other website. But you have to be aware you’ll be cut off from the majority of other instances. You’ll be running standalone.

I am not sure about Lemmy, but Pleroma supports feeding all your federation traffic through a proxy; you can use one called fedproxy to split out your I2P federation traffic through your I2P daemon, and likewise for Tor. I am not currently running this on my server. It should still work for other fedisoftware than Pleroma. https://docs.akkoma.dev/stable/configuration/i2p/
