Latest foss drama. Consequences of your actions........

the /r/linux subreddit thread about this is as awful as you would imagine.

The SJW's are coming for your toothbrush!!!-

This is about a month old, but this distro is now released. It's a completely independent distro from China.

Maybe this is better asked elsewhere, but question basically in the title. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Mozilla VPN, and if so what they thought about it.

I started using Jeboa about a day and a half ago, no problem. It defaulted to lemmy.ml rather than lemmygrad.ml. No problem as I was browsing anon just to see how I liked the app.

Now, when I open the app, nothing is loaded, and changing from local to all still loads nothing.

Is this a problem with lemmy.ml? How can I change instances.

Chimera is an interesting new Linux distro with no systemd, BSD utils instead of gnu, and other unique design choices.

Reading about it on lobste.rs, the developer (or one of them) commented:

"

why does every other linux distribution exist? most of them provide far less added value compared to the others, yet nobody questions their existence, perhaps because they are fundamentally uninteresting

it’s always a combination of many smaller factors

i just wanted to make a well-rounded and somewhat opinionated system without cruft or sketchy parts, but still featureful and generally usable (no suckless junk), with a low-maintenance but high-correctness package build system and infrastructure, no systemd but taking service management and everything around it seriously (there are exactly 0 other non-systemd distros that do that), easy to bootstrap, architecture-agnostic, and hardened (as much as possible without introducing visible breakage or significant performance loss; the only “linux distro” that really takes this seriously is android, and that’s not general-purpose)

none of the individual choices like userland base or libc or whatever are goals in themselves, they are a means to an end or just the most obvious thing given the circumstances"

Interested in hearing everyone's experience using alternative phone OS's. Have you ever used Lineage or Graphene, Pursim, pinephone? Was it good enough to replace your android/iphone?
