Well well well

The Terminal

I’m so excited for ForgeFed

You can also follow them on Mastodon https://floss.social/@forgefed

There are enough other reasons to switch away from GitHub…

Give Up GitHub!

Material Files is another great FOSS option

Average Chinese company

I agree

Good. Fuck Israel. I hope their economy goes down the drain as quickly as possible.

Or Tmate if you use Vim (or another CLI editor, or basically anything in the Terminal)

Some content might not be available in certain countries because of licensing/legal issues.

Duh

Or NextDNS

If you don’t need to configure everything yourself, you can also check out Mullvad’s public DNS or dnsforge

The Firehawk52 guide has some ARLs that expire in 2099. I never had issues with them. Just hit Ctrl + F, search for 2099 and you’re good to go.

Btw the regular ARLs are being updated, search for 2025 and you’ll get some results.

OP asked about TLauncher, which is a cracked version. It’s proprietary though, and there’s a much better alternative called PollyMC. It’s based on the amazing Prism Launcher, and has a bunch of useful features, such as the ability to download individual mods and entire modpacks straight from sources like Curseforge, Modrinth, ATLauncher or FTB.

I recommend using PollyMC, if you want to play Minecraft for free. It’s based on the awesome Prism Launcher, is completely open source, and has more features than the official launcher or TLauncher.

If you want something that’s basically the exact same thing as Notepad++, check out Notepad Next. If you want something similar, try Notepadqq, and if you want something better, use Kate. It’s developed by the KDE Project btw, and fits in well with the rest of your Plasma desktop experience.

I have installed Lutris (flatpak), Bottles (flatpak) and Heroic (Appimage).

Why did you install Heroic as an AppImage? Just go with the Flatpak, which is more convenient, because you can easily update it from Discover.

I also recommend installing ProtonUp-Qt btw, it’s an easy to use graphical tool that lets you manage multiple versions of Proton. Once you have it installed, use it to download the latest version of Proton-GE-custom. It has better performance and compatibility with many games.

When actually installing Linux onto your machine, I would reconsider your choice of distribution though. Debian isn’t bad, but there are better, easier, more user-friendly distros for gaming. One example of this is Bazzite. It’s pretty similar to Steam OS, and you can’t really break it.

Immich is funded by FUTO btw

Why?

An Alpine user, cool! What is it like to use it as your primary desktop OS? I have only played around with it on servers or in VMs and containers.

Paru > yay

On Arch I don’t need any, I just run paru without any options, which by default invokes a full Pacman update, as well as updating all AUR packages. But I have a system maintenance script, that, besides doing some other stuff that’s specific to my system, runs paru -Sc --noconfirm to clean the Pacman package cache, and delete unneeded cloned AUR Git repos and build artifacts.
