The Chinese government sponsored a fork of Ubuntu. The primary innovation is a custom UI called UKUI that comes preinstalled with a package magager that only supports government sanctioned programs.
Will the government actually "dump" Windows? Perhaps, especially since this seems like the government's attempt to control the software on their citizens' desktops.
Congratulations on winning this week! If you have content to promote, please let me know what two links you'd like to have pinned at the top of Sunday's announcement.
Sorry you didn't find a partner... I've started a new thread for this week. Hopefully you'll find a partner this time!

I schedule regular posts to a community I moderate. Is this considered bot activity? I use a cron job/python script to log into my account and post something I manually wrote.
A video game sounds cool! Are you a developer? Or are you using a drag and drop engine?
Most of my writing is for my blog, but I'd really like to get back into working on a novel of mine. It's just such a beast of a project, and blog posts are just so easy because of their bitesize nature. But I really miss the feeling of working on something huge...
I've always been very critical with both myself and others. I, personally, don't like it when people give me all positive feedback and no negative because I don't get any valuable ideas about how to improve.
To me, launching into a laundry list of negatives feels natural. But I'm starting to wonder whether most people might not feel the same. I'll have to try to be more sensitive in the future.
You know, that's exactly what I did -- a whole truckload of suggestions at once.
I have a very critical eye when it comes to editing, and I was eager to help. (Also, I forgot to say anything positive about her writing.) I think it came across as an attack against her writing.
Next time, I'll remember to give the critiques one at a time. Thanks for the feedback.
In hindsight, I was too harsh. I was so focused on helping her improve that I forgot to say anything positive.
But that's a good point about stating my genuine intentions to help. I think I tend to be overly critical as part of my personality, and it doesn't really come across that I have good intentions.
I just sent you a message. The messaging system on Lemmy is a bit clunky, so let me know if you want to switch to another service. I have email, google hangouts, LINE, and What's App. Let me know which one you prefer :).
You need to have a ton of content to make any amount of money. After writing 200 articles, I started making a consistent $100/month. Not quitting my day job any time soon, but I have a lot of downtime at work, so it's a productive way to pass the time.
Oh, and the $100/month is pretty consistent. I took a month off from writing, and they still sent me money for the read time on my old articles. The pay is low... but my boss wouldn't send me a small stipend if I decided not to show up for a month. So, I really can't complain.

I love this way of looking at it. My first novel was crap -- I just didn't know it.
But the only way to advance through the levels is to write.
Keep writing!

What's the purpose of the megathread? I'm so confused what's going on with this community...
The only real rule is you need to be writing. Other than this, you can do anything 👍
I made a new thread for this week. Reply with your score and you just might win! https://lemmy.world/post/2032447

What are you upset about? $0/hr is a generous salary.
Oh! I just thought of something -- disconnecting my computer from WiFi! I'm going to go try that as soon as I get a chance ☺️
Oh, old school paper... never thought of that! I'll have to try doing something I can do to help get the thoughts out. Hmm...
Yes, my username on discord is caspianxi. Feel free to message me!

Sorry, I posted this too soon, and didn't provide any context. I've edited (as in -- completely rewritten) my post to provide more details.

I write a blog on Medium.
