I used to like Ubuntu, but I got so sick for not being able to do things due to packages being out of date, and/or snaps getting in the way.

I ditched it for arch and I’m so much happier

They nailed the retro-futurism aesthetic with that window UI

Shitting on Gnome if you use a tiled desktop manager is fair game.

Shitting on Gnome if you use KDE is just dumb

I had no idea it was based on Arch… I thought I read somewhere that Steam was only officially packaged for Debian or Ubuntu.

They must have been a former Duke Nukem Forever project manager

But the backup is on the hard drive. /s (but also not necessarily)

I was gonna say that it looks like every Linux install I’ve ever booted… But then I realized 90% of them have been Debian or Debian-based 😅

Oh interesting! I actually found Wayland to have a bit of an edge vs X. I just didn’t like the Unity environment from Ubuntu so I’ve been using i3.

I’ll have to give Sway a try

Is Sway like a Wayland equivalent of i3? That’s the only thing really keeping me on X

Ok? The issue wasn’t clearly defined. There’s always pop sockets and similar to make it easier to hold. That said, my teenaged kids have 0 be issue holding this phone so idk what OP is on about

You don’t use multiple tabbed windows to sort what you’re doing?

Using one handed isn’t really an issue if you toggle the one-handed mode…

One-handed mode exists if you need to reach the whole area of the interface with one hand, albeit it won’t help if grip is an issue. Maybe a pop socket kinda thing for that?

Most larger phones have a single-hand mode that gives you kind of a picture-in-picture of the screen itself.

I went S2 -> S5 -> S8+ -> Note 10+ -> S23 Ultra

Never really felt my phone was too big, though there are times where I’ve got a show to go to and wish I had a cheap flip phone to fall back on. The older phones seemed fine at the time until I realized how much better the bigger screens were. I’m not sure I’d want one bigger than the S23 Ultra, unless it folded out to a tablet.

Why isn’t the company providing its employees with the required tools to do the work?

I don’t get why you’d want a smaller phone unless you’re looking to get one in a flip-phone style form factor. I’d be down for that. I miss being able to accurately text from my pocket.

Webdings

Pretend you’re using Ancient Aliens tech

Is that function a niche thing? I’ve never needed it and don’t know anybody who has… What are some situations where it might need to be used?

Absolute bloat.
