  • Xubuntu in a vm on win10, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, OpenSuse Tumbleweed with Kde, and now Nix.

    I used Fedora the longest and OpenSuse the shortest as Kde reminded me so much of horrible windows. I’ve also tried a lot of other distros in a vm or live usb, Linux Mint, Mubuntu, Void linux, the one without any Gnu component(Artix?) and some other ones. I also have ISOs of some other esoteric Oses on my computer, DebianHurd, Redox, can’t even remember rn but I’m yet to try them out.

    I’m mentally restraining myself from distrohopping to Guix and or FreeBSD as I doubt I’d have the same workflow I have now on NixOS. To have distrohopped this much in the space of 18 months is why I’m a failed Javascript programmer.


  • I don’t understand why people feel this way.

    I have a lot of interests and things I do, if I see something I like online, I keep the tab open. This way, I’ve accumulated a lot of tabs, I’ve allocated a small amount of time in my daily activites just before sleeping in which I chip away at different tabs. That way I learn new things daily and get to close a lot of tabs. I can say I have over a thousand open tabs.

    That said, I have a lot of browsers. I can literally say I collect browsers, but they have to be Foss or non-chromium. On my linux install, I have 12 browsers, I generally use or have open tabs in 8 of them, the rest I use from time to time. On my previous arch-install, I had over 15. On my lineageOS, I also have 12 and I’m still getting more from F-droid. I use around 6 on here.

    Like I said, I group my tabs by interests, i.e tech, education and open new article depending on the topic in each tab. I use LinkSheet on android and Junction on linux. If I like a tab and want to keep it around, I use Native Alpha on android and Tangram on linux to create web apps for them. I open and save wikipedia articles on the Wikipedia apps on both OS’s.
