I'm interested in knowing what OP thinks is not garbage now.
I've never wanted to "rice" my Pop!_OS, but I think I've been disappointed that Gnome couldn't add some simple changes like the following from COSMIC without installing third party software.
Beyond changing from Dark to Light mode and choosing an accent color you can change the application background, interface text palette tint and neutral palette tint. You’ll also be able to choose one of the three styles for the corner radii used throughout the interface and set an interface density.
Finally! Notifications can happen where you want, and they're not connected to the calendar. This is a massive win for me. Gnome's is really annoying being top center and dropping down into your work. I've always turned off 95% of notifications. If I can have them bottom left or right I will love that.
The notifications applet has been integrated into COSMIC DE! Unlike in Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS, notifications exist in their own applet, separate from your calendar.
In the browser? Has that been introduced?
Not everything needs and app
But then they couldn't scrape maximum personal data, collect your contacts, have access to your mic and camera, and track your every physical movement. Your so selfish!
YES! A hide sports button sounds amazing. Including car sports of course.
And a hide Hentai/Manga/Anime button. I don't understand its popularity.
A hide Games/Gaming/Gamer button including PS1-7, Xbox, Playstation etc..
Definitely a hide Furry/yiff/fetish button.
A boobs/celeb/shoes button
A religion button.
People can look at whatever they like, but it would be amazing of my block list could be reduced from a thousand to a couple. The brilliant thing about federated instances is also one of the most annoying. If you block something on lemmy.world you likely have the same community on lemmy.ml or many of the other instances. Blocking the exact thing five times is tedious.
The Orville is my favorite Star Trek franchise. It's canon - you can't deny it. The Orville revived the Star Trek Franchise and gave it a pulse. It's like blockchain. You can say it doesn't belong, but it will always be there and nothing can change that. It has great attention to detail and decent story writing with that original "there's a moral in this episode" that endeared ST in our hearts, something the newer ST franchises lack.
I would love a simpler Nix.
You've summed up my whole entire experience with NixOS. I too would love a simpler Nix, and couldn't quite commit to the time to learn everything. As a compromise I've been content to continue with nixpkgs
and nix-env
on Pop!_OS.
Having said, I've noticed a LOT of new nix flakes being added to System76's new Rust based COSMIC desktop environment's packages. And I'm hearing talk of immutability. Maybe we'll get our wish.
This article neglects to point out that the initial join up number was a deceptive and manipulative corporate strategy which amounts to smoke and mirrors. 100 million people didn't join up for threads! Meta created a placeholder account for every Instagram account in existence. People were able to follow an account that the owner of never made or approved of. Then to top it off, Meta made it initially impossible to delete said placeholder unless you delete your whole Instagram. Nice retention strategy. Too bad it smells like a corporate dump on it's users. When it became possible for people to delete it without losing Instagram it halved overnight. But they got the big media headline, and that's all that matters right. Meta, and threads, is just a pathetic attempt to retain the centralized control of ~~customer~~ ~~people~~ ~~user~~ account holder data, identity and advertising profile as we transition into web3. Don't be lazy. Take control of your own data and identity. These corporate assholes have proven beyond any doubt that they despise people and will abuse you, your rights and privacy without hesitation or remorse. Just quit those broken and failed centralized corporate web2 advertising platforms already.

This is fine.
No! - I'm not a dumbfuck. Mark Zuckerberg once said people who trust him with their personal information are dumbfucks. I have never had an account on any of his platforms, and never will. If something I'm using integrated with his products I'd just stop using it. Just no!
Yes. You always will be with any corporate streaming service.
