I’ll be downvoted to hell for saying this. But in this event I think it’s better for you to upgrade to Win 11 or maybe even move to MacOS (mac mini is pretty cheap), though I don’t know if you’ll find your replacement apps.

I use Win for work (no choice there) and Ubuntu at home (just browse the net, and only browser applications).

It typically happens during updates. People have reported their grub screwing up. If you’re able I would honestly suggest separate drives

Exactly, Twitter still has over 200 million DAU. Thread has about 30 million, Bluesky has less. Mastodon is worse.

Things like my city’s metro communication is still on Twitter. People aren’t going leave anytime soon.

One of my Indian friends said she felt invisible when visiting France. Apparently being stared at just for being a woman is common in India.

In France you can have it delivered to a post office. To pick it up you’ll need to show a state id card as proof.

Curious, why not Ubuntu? Doesn't it have more support forums and generally more popular?

You clearly haven't talked to Asians about how strict their parents can be. I've heard of guys getting their asses whopped for slacking off in studies. The same applies to some black parents too.

Address some of the issues. Like not having multiple similar posts, on different instances with similar named communities.

Also to reach critical mass, we need to keep posting. Addition of new apps such as Boost will also increase popularity

Yes!!! Complete change in general usage of the word.

Nobody is coming to save you. Nobody. If you want help, ask. If you don't want to ask, learn to save yourself.

True, I'd rather support Firefox as a browser and an organisation. Edge for pages that work best with Chromium engine

 

Since currently Lemmy is mostly made up of nerds, I'd like to know what browsers you use and why? You could just upvote the comment with your browser of choice if you don't want to explain.
