linux
If you’re on Linux, there’s a good chance you use GNOME: it’s the default experience across Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora Workstation, Endless OS, and more. If you’re on another desktop, you still likely use components developed by GNOME contributors—or maybe you get apps from Flathub.
Want to become more than just a user? How about… a friend? 🥺 Become a Friend of GNOME to support GNOME, Flathub, and the work we do!

Various desktop Linux tips for newcomers
It's weekend, you might be visiting friends or relatives, and perhaps some of them are curious about switching away from Windows or macOS to Linux. There's countless guides out there about this very topic, but to help you along a bit and cut through the avalanche of "AI" and SEO slop, here's a true beginners' guide to desktop Linux written by KDE developer
https://www.osnews.com/story/143100/various-desktop-linux-tips-for-newcomers/
I suppose an introduction is in order. Better make one before I forget...
I'm Ferrus, your local queer goat! 🐐
I'm a #pansexual, #agender, and #aromantic of the #autistic #furry variety! My presentation is primarily feminine, though I incorporate some masculine or neutral pieces when the mood strikes me.
I was born and raised in #newzealand, though you wouldn't know that from my accent, a weird american-british-kiwi hybrid.
My Hobbies/Special Interests include but are not limited to: #linux, #anime, #vidogames, #tabletop, #books, #movies, #tv, #space, #fantasy, #sciencefiction, #oldtechnology, #lego, and #sustainablefashion
My favourite pieces of media are: #Warhammer40K, #TheExpanse, #StarTrek, #StarBlazers, #Tensura, #DungeonsAndDragons, #Pathfinder, #WorldofDarkness, #Stargate, and the #nasuverse
I may occasionally toot about these
Currently looking for education in some kind of Systems Administration Role, and run #NixOS on a daily basis. I also build my own machines.
My toots and boosts may occasionally be #NSFW. DNI with these unless you are of legal age.
Feel free to DM me, unless you're a #troll, #bigot, or anything else of the sort.

I am a human, but my little bot posts a random Linux command daily. If you don't want to see it you can mute the LinuxLexiconBot hashtag.

I don't think there will ever be a "Year of Linux on Desktop", at least not in the way the meme indicates.
But, for Zeus, how validating it is to see lots of youtubers, if not moving to Linux, at least saying "It is not that seven headed monster it was a few years ago".

Thrift store after-school visit with kiddo. He gets some Nerf magazines. I spot a cheapy network cam for $7.50.
Get it home, plug in micro USB, red power LED on.
Nothing on lsusb.
Bluetooth there, won't pair.
Wifi AP at 192.168.1.1, but I don't have nmap on Hackberry yet.
Fine screwdriver, open it up, what's inside this robot eye?
New #Linux #kernel #policy: when writing code, humans can be "assisted" by "#AI", but they have to disclose it, and take full responsibility, as contributors.
While this gets celebrated as a "pragmatic stance", it simply delegates responsibilities to individual contributors that no one in good conscience can reasonably take.
Would you be willing to guarantee, legally binding, with all consequences, that your "AI" "assistant" didn't copy-paste code that's under an incompatible license? Or even proprietary, stolen one?
This is a cop out, not a responsible policy. Basically the dirty #subcontractor pattern: Everybody knows that nobody can actually guarantee what they're promising, but hey, wink wink here's their signature, they "promised" it wink wink

I’m now focusing with Mangotek on helping people + small orgs move away from Big Tech — learning Linux, exploring ethical FOSS tools, and making the shift step-by-step.
If you’re starting your own #BigTechDetox or work in ethical tech, let’s connect, share ideas, and support each other.
Together we can reclaim tech for people, not profit.
💡 Boosts appreciated & welcome! 🙏
