That’s a good point. If the organization that hosts the instance is non-profit, they merely need cover their costs.

I utterly agree.

I find that most of its user-friendlyness is due to every app having at least a .deb version, whereas no guarantee exists that a .rpm will exist, much less anything else.

Is Kubuntu with KDE backports or KDE Neon better?

Kubuntu has never been stable for me, and it nuked my father’s installation a few months ago 3 days after installation.

I have tried Debian, (K)Ubuntu, Fedora, and OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. For myself, I use OSTW, because it supports both x86 and x64 (regarding UEFI and/or CPU) which I need due to my mess of really old and really new devices. Also, YaST (like Windows’ Control Panel) is absolutely wonderful when I just want to get something done now and graphically. Also, due to its quick update release cadence, I get the newest updates immediately. It lacks a few important packages despite/due to this though, like WayDroid, so if you use the Windows Subsystem for Android, use Fedora instead.

OSTW also isn’t 100% stable. There is the occasional bug. The Fedora KDE Spin, on the other hand, because it by default isn’t a rolling release distribution (its release cycle is more like Windows stable, whereas OSTW’s is like Windows Insider Dev/Canary) it’s amazingly stable. It is very barebones though when compared to OSTW, since it doesn’t have any custom distribution-specific features at all, not even YaST, so you’d need to be vaguely more familiar with the commandline unless you can find 3rd-party graphical apps for everuthing you want to do. This is probably possible, but I don’t bother since I have YaST.

I’m not going to recommend Debian to you, because until last month, it didn’t even come with proprietary drivers by default, and the technically-not-yet-official image with them in is hard to find. It’s also very much an LTS distribution. However, it wasn’t on your radar anyway.

NixOS is though, and whilst an incredibly stable distribution that’s been around for ages and has undoubtedly the best (cross-platform! yes, it works on Windows too) package manager, it needs basic technical skill to configure. I have no idea whether you have that.

That what I want to see irrespective of the blackout

It appears to be federating now.

It’s kinda a no win situation especially when cops are trained to escalate the situation.

I’m English, so I don’t know what USA police are like much, but surely your nation is not backward as to explicitly train police officers to escalate a situation?

Have you mentioned this to the developer? https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/468612-kbin-enhancement-script/feedback#post-discussion

That would have been perfect. Only ASCII art of sexy John Oliver.

Have you tried KBin? Its GUI is really good.

Link?

Which?

Why?

It might be neither; I expect it’s a frontend.
