That's a real shame. I enjoy his comics. Thanks for sharing

Nice to see these images have made it over to lemmy :)

Absolutely true! The problem is choice paralysis. I don't know what to choose.

I run EndeavourOS. It's like arch for noobs haha.
I didn't really have to learn anything to use it, it just kind of works.
I do feel it's somewhat pointless though since I didn't have to learn anything, and I wouldn't be able to fix it if it broke.

True, and you're absolutely right. As much as we'd love it, Reddit would gain nothing for telling us how much damage we caused, and we're likely never to see the numbers to prove it. I was fairly optimistic with 30%, that's more a wish/dream rather than reality. I might be satisfied if we see 5-10%.

That's a disappointingly low number. I was honestly fully expecting closer to 30% drop.

I keep wanting to try out vanillaOS and everytime I liveboot it, I immediately regret my decision. I cannot stand Gnome.
I love KDE, I love it for how versatile, intuitive and customizable it is.
Bot to mention, I rarely experience any bugs. It just works.

Sorry, I was referring to the categories on FMHY's website.

I want to preface this by saying I'm super happy with FMHY and wouldn't mind if it doesn't change, you do a great service to the community already! :)
For improvement, it might just be me, and someone should correct me if that's the case, but I find the category structure to be difficult to understand.
If I want Windows software, cracks, or otherwise, where do I go? Movie downloads... I'd think.. Downloading?

A thought would be get rid of linux/mac and have a software category with subcategories for Windows, linux, mac.

The downloading category makes little sense, what's the point of the other categories if downloading is the only one to "download" things? Then most links under gaming, movies, and so on need to moved as sub category of Downloading too.

After getting it working with proxies I realize they have the exact same webRTC issue. I assume it's for the same reason as Selenium having it. Unfortunate but there you have it.

Thanks! I actually did briefly try it as a Keep notes replacement, but decided against it purely because the checklist function does not actually remove the item from the list so it doesn't work as a shopping list, so the wife would never use it!

I did not consider the potential of using it to store bookmarks. I'll give it another look. Thanks!

I actually use Revolut as my main bank account. :) Fantastic service but unfortunately it can only track stuff spent within Revolut. I use Cubux because I can track all of my bank accounts, and have a shared overview of my wife's and I's finance. Both of us have all of our accounts connected there. They made it incredibly easy to use, just unfortunate that it's not open source or self hostable.
