  • I only use FOSS ones. I hop between florisboard and unexpected keyboard, and I gave heliboard a shot again recently because it has the swipe/glide typing but I couldn’t stick with it because I was missing other features, so I’m back on floris.

    Since I only use open source keyboards, I’m not really concerned about privacy…so no blocking of internet access.

    I also thought about trying out the clipboard history, and also am wondering if it’s safe…

    If you want to try FOSS keyboard again, HeliBoard is your best bet.



  • Initially made an account on lemmy.ml in 2022. I was eyeing the fediverse, and when I found that there is a “reddit alternative”, I wanted to check it out, but there wasn’t much activity so I didn’t use it much other than checking on it occasionally.
    Then in 2023 I made an account on tchncs…when majority of users also hopped on lemmy.








  • I have not been following PC hardware for a while, but there was a time when RAM slots and the sticks themselves were designed to be used as a pair. Could be something like that?

    Hmm, never heard of that. I’ll research it a bit.

    Also since it’s occasional, could also be corrupted OS file, harddrive/SSD read issue or even a driver issue. Have you looked what errors are in the event log with the BSODs? Is it same or similar each time or completely random?

    It is always the same thing. And it is entirely possible that OS is causing it, since the installation is old af, but now my bigger concern is that initial RAM test fail.











  • They allegedly remove posts/comments about lemmy? And even if they don’t, I feel like it could have the opposite effect. People would see those posts just like ads/promotion/spam. Which would give lemmy a bad rep. Unless something big happens, like some big community switching to lemmy, or someone with a big following promotes lemmy, it will hardly see a big spike in user count.

    The only way is to passively “advertise” it. Maybe add the link to your lemmy account in your reddits about you section, if you are making OC add your lemmy handle there as well…

    And the last way, which is most likely the best way to do it, is to post good content on lemmy, keep communities alive. And people will eventually join.
