I didn't mean it's a bad choice !

But I think it's a good example of the compromise that has to be made here : what's the best fitting technology vs. how to ensure easy onboarding for future contributors.

In France our main concern is about "Bolorisation", which is about two billionaires owning most of the mainstream medias (including Vincent Bolloré, hence the name). We still have major independant papers but they hardly choose what's on the public debate.

Yeah that's what I meant by my initial message, there people still have access to somewhat reliable source of information, mostly thanks to publicly owned TV and radio, but it's very very very fragile right now. Education to media and information would be critical to navigate this mess, but we suck at this.

That's fair. In France law requires transparency on how you fund your campaign and sets a limit. We often have candidates who bend the rules but justice at least make it harder.

Ofc it's hard to compare our two countries, the US is a fking continent.

I'm not living in USA but I think people got exactly what they voted for, didn't they?

Now the question of it being an educated vote and people being equipped to navigate modern media with modern disinformation techniques is another subject.

The point of Arch is not that it's hard to install the point is that it's modular and you can choose exactly what you need. So in order ton maintain it you may need to know about pipewire, bluez, Wayland, synaptic, tlp, ...

Once you know the name of most modules and graphical application it's indeed pretty easy because Arch's wiki is great. But I don't think it's a great way to discover the ecosystem and you would probably not benefit from Arch specificities compared to another distro.

I think the only person I would recomand this to would be a computer scientist who needs to learn as much as possible about Linux in two months.

I'm not sure a newcomer will notice the difference between xorg and wayland?

Well I see huge benefits in building the tools used by a community with the technology this community masters. IMO the Python's stdlib sucks because it's written in C which is a huge barrier to entry.

Ignoring a text that "I can answer later" is actually what hits me with most cognitive charge :

My current balance is :

1. To never give notification permission except when it is necessary for the core goal of the application.
2. Automatically enable do not disturb from 11pm until alarm clock.

Don't we have poor and middle pedos? Maybe that's just the social elevator at work then 🤷

Un peu pareil MAIS il y a quelque temps je me suis tout de même rendu compte que "les journalistes" c'était un sac un peu trop large.

Dur mettre dans le même sac un éditorialiste de CNews, un vulgarisateur scientifique, un journaliste d'investigation, un attaché spécial en zone de guerre, ...

Maintenant je me contente d'en vouloir aux médias qui poussent un journalisme creux, argumenté à coup de micro trottoirs. Tous ce qu'ils font c'est décrédibiliser et fragiliser une profession très vaste et absolument essentielle à la démocratie. Et en ce moment on est plutôt rassurés quand nos contre pouvoirs se portent biens ...

My Fairphone 3 is almost as good as new. Although it was behind competition from the beginning, I hope more recent iterations filled the gaps!

I have not much hope for corporations, but what disappoints me the most is other people. Every-time someone needs to buy a new smartphone around me, they just stop considering Fairphone when they find out their latest model is at 700€ and end up buying a 550€ model from Google or Samsung. Like, people complain they don't want their manufacturer rely on child labor or any dirty sourcing but they actively make that decision on their own to spare a few bucks or not risk the discomfort of having a phone running transitions at 50 FPS instead of 90 ...

Yeah, they ask for your payment details after the second section of their Python course 😢 I think I read somewhere that their Python 2 course was still free, but it's not very convenient. Paying would be okay, but it's hard to get an idea of what you get for the price without asking around 🤷‍♂️
