@AntiWokeMemes Tore my chest and back muscles after a bad fall, couldn't lift anything and couldn't lie on my back or stomach. Had to sleep sitting up against the wall next to the bed for about 2 months.

Worst pain of your life?

@eircare i topped up by 20 euros just now and when I checked it after it said I only had 18.10. took a screenshot to show you, it's happened before too.

@wangzhr4 Check in /etc/bluetooth there should be a config file, in it is an option with the value set to dual, it should be changed to bredr (i think its spelt) from the other options then restart the service. Should work better with devices as it acts like a legacy mode.

I bought a $1200 laptop shipped with Windows. Installed Ubuntu 26.04LTS. Bluetooth doesn't work on Linux, although it works on Windows on the very same machine. Checked the driver, buggy. I have to patch the driver from the source tree. With the story above, you tell me "Linux desktop is rising"? It is 2026, and a decent Linux Distro cannot even deal with bluetooth.

@Taniyatweets_ 8gb is fine most of the time unless I need to run a vm

Is 16GB RAM enough for you in 2026?

@vibeonX69 Initially had the media center edition but replaced it with the corporate version which ran much better. It's still on a pc I've since retired but keep as a backup.

Unpopular opinion: Computers peaked here when this was the first screen you saw

@vibeonX69 I just use whatever is default, unless I do a custom build in which I'll use Sakura

Linux users, what's your default terminal? -GNOME Terminal -Kitty -Alacritty -WezTerm

@brockpierson MK3 easily

Without saying recycle bin, which one of these classic games are you double clicking on first?

@droidbuilds Debian based, distros like MX, Neptune OS, solydxk, peppermint os

Name a Linux distro better than Ubuntu. I'll wait.

@Itsfoss Been using solydxk and peppermint for years, by also messing around with Neptune OS in live sessions on a windows machine.

Comment 🐧

@aylacroft Solydxk, AcorOs, Mauna, Neptune OS. All Debian based, PCLinuxOS if you fancy something else.

Underrated Linux distros I need to check out, please provide.

@MaunaLinux @piyush784066 Have used mauna, it's a good distro. Would recommend

@piyush784066 Take a look at @MaunaLinux

Hey linux users, If someone is starting Linux today, which distro should they try first?

What's up with all the #Linux vs #Windows bots lately. This is just one example I caught now, same profile pictures

@METAPCs Mostly audio and image editing and a bit of djing. Depends on whether I'm on Linux or windows

What do you actually use your PC for? Gaming only Work only Gaming + work Content creation It's a very expensive browser

@vibeonX69 You can choose how minimal or loaded you want it to be out of the box so you don't have to remove stuff you don't want. Just pick a distro that caters to you.

I'm a Windows user Give me one reason to switch LINUX.

@Sh_a_shi Mint, Ubuntu requires a little setup to make it complete as it lacks common stuff like VLC for example. MX on the Debian side

@brockpierson Started in 2010 with Ubuntu, now Debian based

You ever used Linux as your daily driver OS?

@themishra4402 Debian & sometimes Ubuntu

Which one are you actually using in 2026? 🐧 Ubuntu 🎩 Fedora 🏹 Arch Linux 🦎 openSUSE Be honest… no distro wars

@Slipmatt The trick to switch it is to look in the top right or lower left corners.

@EmilySm43 Siemens

🤔

@galiban00 I've used 7zip and peazip both are decent.

Is there a reason to use winrar over 7zip?
