Depending on how we are defining it, I have used several in my personal and professional lives. I dont see a compelling use case for me currently in my self-hosting setup.

All within about a month, early summer:

  • working at a startup
  • got married
  • honeymoon (visited 2 new countries)

Adapt, migrate, or die.

It is weird to see it be a somewhat practical recommendation. I mained Gentoo pre-0.1 days back when the alpha was revolutionary and the idea of including the stage 3 binaries in the distro was controversial. Wars raged in the forums over which USE flags worked best.

But then compute got so much cheaper I stopped caring and I mostly used corporate distros for work.

I recently installed LMDE on an ancient 1.83Ghz celeron netbook, but it runs like dogshit. Maybe I ought to dust off my USE flag game and see if I can squeeze more life out of it. I'm sure just using something other than cinnamon would work as well, but what fun would that be?

... I wrote to the Soviet Embassy. Not only did they write back, they sent me a big box of stuff. So yeah, I had an FBI file before I was an adult.

After: ~1,337 days, 271 releases, 78,000 stars on GitHub, 1,558 contributors, 31,500 members on Discord, 36,000 members on Reddit, 68 languages on Weblate, Surviving the controversial announcement about joining FUTO, Having overwhelming success and support from the community with the product keys model, Launching the Merch store, Attending our first FOSDEM, ...and before the release of GTA VI We are thrilled to announce the stable release of Immich! 🎉

I'm really excited about such a large project adopting semver! I never got the trend for software without a need for rapid release cycles adopting purely time-based version numbers.

Uh... no. Not how it works. I remember secondhand cringe also.
