I work with Zendesk and this doesn’t surprise me at all - the product is janky and they’re much more interested in sales and squeezing a few more $$s from their clients than improving it or fixing issues

I use Nextcloud to sync a huge music collection and it works great - I was kinda surprised

I run it on an underpowered NUC and it behaves beautifully

you should probably use a VPN if you’re uploading because it’s trivial for law enforcement to track - there’s no Onion routing or anything like that, and anyone can register and search

but for downloading / leeching I wouldn’t be as worried because very generally speaking people aren’t harassed for downloading, only sharing

it isn’t so loud that other people would notice, i don’t think - and usually just a bit of readjustment of my position is enough to unblock the vents

don’t let me dissuade you from buying the best laptop i’ve owned!

if i have it on a table, it’s fine, mostly silent. if i have it on my lap blocking the vents then it can get noisier and hotter pretty fast

I run NixOS on my Ryzen Framework 13 and it works flawlessly, including fingerprint reader. I run KDE now but I’ve also used Gnome with no issues.

I used this nixos-hardware module for some of the fancier hardware tweaks I don’t really understand: https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware

as the inverse to this, I like to be reminded how much Windows sucks so I don’t feel any desire to reinstall it

I have a few personal domains registered with Njalla and have for years with no issues. They’re not hosting anything shadier than a Jellyfin login (on a non-Njalla server) - and so I’m not worried about getting denied access. And I like not having my real details in the WHOIS.

my LG TV was up to date but I still managed to root it just recently, via this method: https://github.com/throwaway96/dejavuln-autoroot

it’s well worth it - rebinding the remote alone is sweet AF, plus the ad-free and sponsor-blocking YouTube is great

for you, maybe

for the planet, nuh-uh

I use Librewolf with Firefox Sync and it works excellently, it doesn’t interfere with Librewolf’s operations at all

nice - unlimited Kagi was good value at $25 for power users but at $10 it’s good value for everyone, even if they never dig around in the settings

my favourite feature is raising / lowering results, as others have mentioned, but I also use the AI summarizer quite often
