  • Why I switched to Linux (on one laptop, so far) from Windows:

    1. Enshitification: Such as login interstitials trying to get me to switch to Edge over and over, and more naggy features added to the task bar and stuff

    2. End of support: I was on Win10 (Win11 has even more enshitification), so if I was going to be forced off of Win10, I may as well migrate away from Windows (and sooner rather than later).

    3. WSL2 sucks (yet more enshitification): it's more isolated from Windows than WSL1 (and other options, such as Cygwin).

    Now, I've only switched to Linux on my laptop (full time; no dual boot!), but I see that as a first step towards migrating other computers in the house to Windows. I'm expecting difficulties when I switch the others (like webcam drivers, or lack of ability to use device configuration or firmware update software like for my Logitech Brio webcam). I also use Blue Iris NVR, which is Windows only, and Linux options don't look as good. So 0% Windows is not looking likely for a while.

  • Distribute Lemmy app under old Pro app listing?

    I bought Ultra lifetime for the Sync Pro reddit app, then reddit killed 3rd party apps shortly after. 😢

    What do you think of distributing the Lemmy app using the Sync Pro listing so that our purchases there can apply to Lemmy? 😁
