Referring to femme-presenting people as "traps" is transphobic, originating in the idea that trans women are somehow disingenuous by showing their true selves to the world. Because horny cis straight guys might get horny about trans women (and that's bad for some reason).

I think this can be the case, but I also think intent has to matter. I don't see any evidence that OP intends to be transphobic.

Lenovo + Linux make a great combo.

const_void@lemmy.ml · 26 pts · 2y

Not really. Lenovo have a close relationship with Microsoft and they use proprietary, closed source firmware.

I already got functional laptops (an Alienware M15 r3 and a very recent HP Pavilion) but none of them come close to my Thinkpad T480 in terms of comfort of use, the overall build quality and the damn awesome keyboard.

Too bad that all (?) recent Thinkpads now have soldered RAM.

The Thinkpad X1 Extreme line-up does not have soldered RAM.

Too bad it's gnome. May as well use Windows

Evkob@lemmy.ca · 31 pts · 2y (5 replies)

Disregarding the DE-shaming (which, lol who cares? let people use what they like) how do you even figure OP uses Gnome? I can't make out anything on their screen from the picture apart from the neofetch.

Fal@yiffit.net · -6 pts · 2y (2 replies)

I guess I was wrong. But I just can't stand gnome. Their devs are insufferable and it's so incredibly unconfigurable. I have to use it at work (at least I can use linux) and it's just so frustrating. I can't stand people voluntarily using gnome

Evkob@lemmy.ca · 12 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I can’t stand people voluntarily using gnome

How does this affect you in any way, though?? I get being frustrated at having to use it, that blows, but why do you care if others use it?

Fal@yiffit.net · 1 pts · 2y

Because its popularity is why it gets chosen as default on distros, and then those distros get chosen by companies as the only supported distro.

If gnome was a niche thing I wouldn't care. But it being the default is actively harmful, and choosing to use it voluntarily is furthering that

Shadywack@lemmy.world · -14 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I’m sorry that Gnome being garbage offends you.

Evkob@lemmy.ca · 15 pts · 2y

Uh, no need to apologize? I'm not offended at "Gnome being garbage". I don't feel any offense at all, to be honest.

I am slightly annoyed at the "too-bad-it's-Gnome" comment, which is why I pointed it out. It's fine to not like Gnome, heck, I don't like Gnome. I don't see why that should translate into having a shitty attitude towards people who do like it. I'm just glad people are using FOSS, whether it be some nerd dev on an obscure tiling WM perfectly customized to suit their needs, or some tech-illiterate noobie using Linux Mint and a GUI software manager.

I voluntarily use gnome. I spent years on Mac os and I make gnome look like osx.

baseless_discourse@mander.xyz · 2 pts · 2y

I never used a mac, used ubuntu unity for a year, and spend the rest of my life on Windows.

I started using gnome last year, and I just feel like the workflow is so intuitive and productive, I cannot stand any Windows-like workflow any more.

I love the super key so much LOL.

bizzle@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (5 replies)

Do you have the menubar (file, edit, view, etc) up top like OSX? That's like the one feature from OSX that I actually like, I tried to hack something together with KDE but it's pretty janky and only works sometimes.

rizoid@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 1 pts · 2y

That's a feature that I've personally learned to live without. Never really tried on gnome to make anything similar so idk what's out there.

The KDE Global Application Menu Widget I think

kplaceholder@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

I figured, but is there any reliable way to hide the toolbar from the windows in KDE? So that the widget is not redundant. I couldn't find any.
