How much have you used linux before/what is your goal?
wuphysics87@lemmy.mlto DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•What's the main reason you're degoogling?2·27 days agoOriginally it was because suggested results were a waste of time and I had used linux in grad school. I liked being able to use my computer how I wanted. As I learned more and more the ethics became a strong enough motivator I got rid of gmail and stopped using google maps. I’m 100% degoogled now, and I never looked back. Sometimes I have friends or people at work who want to collaborate using google products. I tell them I take an ethical stance against it. I will never go back.
Microsoft used to have a division for testing windows on various hardware configurations. They stopped doing that when they could just put different versions of windows on people’s computers and use telemetry to check the differences. This could be an artifact of that.

You can’t say you use Arch unless you use Arch. Also, you are also saying it all wrong. It’s “I use Arch, BTW” not “BTW, I use Arch”. You would know that if you used Arch. Have I mentioned I use Arch, BTW?
wuphysics87@lemmy.mlto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•is this something only introverts struggle with?11·1 month agoSay your expert’s name is Kayla. Start by just saying “Kayla”. Pause about half a second until she makes full eye contact, until she acknowledges you. Then ask your question. By doing this, it focuses the conversation on you and Kayla. If Paul interupts you can politely say “hold on Paul, I want to hear what Kayla has to say”. It’s not impolite because you “set up the rules” for the question when you started.

Kdenlive has always been good for me, but I prefer shotcut. It seems simpler for the smaller edits I do
If you are interested into dipping your toes into rust land there is a library called Iced that I have used before. I at least like it better tham pyqt
