Well, yeah. If your requirement is “no corporate”, then Pop doesn’t fit. However, if you don’t want to use Ubuntu because it’s a product of Canonical, I would still go ahead and recommend Pop, since it’s A) not by Canonical and B) a wholly different kind of corporate backing

Okay, so you can have intuitive and easy to use mouse gestures to speed up your browsing experience… But why wouldn’t you use Vimium and use your keyboard with 32697 unintuitive keybindings instead?

Technically, yeah. However, Pop isn’t their product, their hardware is.

They do their absolute best to create great software like coreboot and Pop and keep it all truly open source. They also innovate the space with things like COSMIC DE (which imo is phenomenal already, even in its early alpha state).

They only offer software support and help for customers of their hardware but that seems reasonable to me. The community is big and helpful so it makes sense for S76 to refer non-customers there.

I’ve been using Pop as a daily driver for more than 3 years now and a few months ago, I started to think about switching. Until recently, it was stuck on 22.04 with no clear indicator as to when 24.04 would be released. I decide that I was gonna wait for October and if i still felt that way, I was gonna switch. As of today, I haven’t switched and since the first alpha release of COSMIC and the recent alpha release of Pop 24.04, I’ve never even thought about it.

24.04 is fast, stable and works incredibly well with COSMIC. COSMIC is insane for productivity and has fixed almost all UX gripes I’ve ever had with GNOME and KDE. It’s truly amazing and a must-try imo.

On average? So you just take all bombs dropped by the USA and divide it by the number of days the US has been a thing? Then you compare that to the amount of days China hasn’t dropped a bomb?

This makes no sense…

rm is like “delete permanently”, trash-cli is like regular delete - it moves to the trash bin. Many people like making an alias so rm runs trash-cli to prevent accidentally permanently deleting data

No shit

yes.

Mastodon, Kbin, Lemmy and such are “compatible”.

Here’s an example of how to do it:

But they not only have updates, they also have form filling, a password manager (wink wink), sync between devices and so many more basic features that Firefox has too

Nah, happily married to Linux and continuously pushing people into it

That’s like saying that Neovim is the real Vim

Go ahead

I’ve used Element and I actually prefer it over Discord. But I use Vim mode in Obsidian so I clearly don’t know squat about usability.

It’s actually been 6 years or so. However, I love it so much that I built a time machine to continuously go back so I can use it more (makes no sense, I know, just roll with it) so for me it has been 84 years

as long as that hasn’t happened yet

Hasn’t happened yet? Have you seen the new mobile app? What usability?
