huh, I wasn’t aware the keyword filters would factor in whitespace at either end, I’m used to that getting stripped out.

keyword filter in an app: twitter
good luck filtering out “X”
I’m there to autoblock all of Elon’s advertising.
I’m there specifically to annoy you.
Also there are people using their real names sharing their real lives for me to give a shit about. The Maui community is strong there. People disappear from Twitter and I wonder what happened. If people disappear from here I wouldn’t notice.
I’ve done an update and suddenly bluetooth doesn’t work. Or audio. Or the network is fucked. Or there’s no display on soft reboots, and you have to completely shutdown, turn off and restart to get video again.
One of the current Microsoft-induced selling points for linux is that it’s supposedly a great alternative for hardware that doesn’t support TPM, particularly for people who wouldn’t know how to disable that requirement on Win11 and above. Well, guess what? All that equipment is old. So all the arguments that it’s a hardware problem are not great for linux, since it’s linux that doesn’t play nice with it without fiddling.
For a time I was able to turn this machine into a Hackintosh that ran MacOS well with everything compatible, including the video card before they switched to metal and discontinued support for nVidia drivers. That was easier than getting linux to work and stay working properly, and it’s well documented how much of a pain Hackintoshes were to get working right.
Until a normal system update breaks something within a few days, weeks, months, whenever. And you may be able to fix it. This is a common occurrence that can happen to anyone, not that it necessarily will. It is well documented in the annals of lemmy.
Thank you! Glad I’m not the only one to mention this or agree with it. Had some twit bitching at me last night to prove it, as if I kept screenshots or something. I just fixed things and moved on.
Not sure what problem you ignorant people have with reading, but I’m currently using it after fixing problems that some people insist didn’t exist. My system has Win10, Linux Mint and Garuda all working, after fixing multiple things. The linux distros still occasionally break after basic system updates and need to be fixed again. Meanwhile, Win10 has been solid as a rock for me. I spend zero time troubleshooting it. Bye.
edit: before the next assumption is made… no, the linux distros don’t share a partition, they’re in independent partitions, on a separate drive from and not sharing a boot partition with Windows, so none of that are valid issues to blame.
Nope, just clicked on a post like normal and recognized the name. Plus voyagerapp’s “New Account Highlightenator” feature makes you look like this
so you stand out a bit.
This is way weirder than anything in the hydrohomies channel.
The OP’s post is asking why people leave Linux… if you cannot handle an honest response to the post, and consider it slander, that’s your problem.
If you cannot understand by what I’ve already written that I fixed the issues, and are unable to work out for yourself that means the hardware is compatible after necessary fixes, that’s also your problem.
Also, my comments are in writing, so it would be libel, not slander. If you’re going to accuse me of something, be accurate.
Now I’m blocking you. Go whine at someone else.
edit: I didn’t even mention the times since the original fixes when doing a simple, completely normal system update broke one thing or another and had to figure that out. This is the reality linux fanbois hate to see.
I don’t need to be specific. It’s not necessary to convince you or a priority to explain what all I had to do. You’re not worth the time, this isn’t a debate. I diagnosed the issues and fixed them. I recently tried Zorin out of curiosity and it was a shitshow with numerous things not working. I went to Linux Mint and still had to fix issues. Pretty sure that’s the exact distro you referred to, plus the one determined to be easiest and most noob friendly. So that presumption of yours is DOA. Now fuck off, because I don’t need your opinion on whether or not I did something wrong, and the comments on this post are filled with people who also have issues. Go lecture them.
Your one use case does nothing to convince me. I’ve read enough recent examples contrary to that to know better, not to mention having had to manually edit a ridiculous number of setting files on my own system to get something to work properly that should have just worked without jumping through all the hoops. Keep lying to yourself that this will be the year of the linux desktop.
Yes, but most people don’t ever have to use it for anything. The average Windows user doesn’t know what you mean when you say “open a command prompt.”
I literally only use it on Windows to compile some source code or run python scripts.

I’m fine with it, but it’s cryptic and a deal breaker for many.
Great suggestions already offered, so I just want to thank you for such caring about Stevie and his owner.
Dunno, but it’s on archive.md
Except that, as I’ve already mentioned, I have two piholes, and sometimes both will be receiving requests. Based on your description, the second would never receive requests as long as the first is online. Perhaps this is router dependent, but it’s what I’ve observed.
I have two piholes, and sometimes both will receive requests at the same time, if there’s a lot of traffic.
I would avoid it, as it may use the alternate instead of the pihole at anytime. If you want redundancy, it’s best to have a second pihole.
Interesting, I’ll have to experiment with it, not sure if voyager supports regex.
