  • I’m not sure how viable this is for the court case… but totally agree with sentiment.

    Maybe in US it is different with very available loans and phone plans that include top of the line iPhones, but in the country I grew up having iPhone was a big thing. Especially when you are teenager or in your 20s. It was a symbol of wealth.

    My friend owns a small business in that country and he says that he had to buy an iPhone. His partners were looking down at him because he had a Samsung phone.

    I guess it’s not like that nowadays, as Samsung has phones that cost the same or even more…









  • I see your point… I use Debian for my self-hosted environment, so having similar system on desktop may save some cognitive load. My main arguments against Debian are (maybe misinformed though):

    • No btrfs support in installer OK, Debian wiki says it’s there
    • Major annual upgrades to keep up with stable look more scary than more incremental and frequent updates of Fedora. And using Sid as someone suggested sounds too crazy for main PC

    So yeah, looks like it’s just upgrades… Gives me something to think about while I’m moving my apps to flatpaks


  • Thanks!

    Bookmarks and passwords are taken care of. And for the apps I’ll try to get migrated to flatpaks as many as I can while still on original system.

    I also see that full disk encryption is being recommended a lot, and I don’t have any solid reasons to encrypt only /home.

    I have not given much thought on Silverblue. Is it “flatpak-only”? If so I’ll need to go through my apps to see if that could work. And my backup strategy will need to change - I use Duplicacy that is not available as a Flatpak
