When I did my pure Arch system I put Brave in as the default. Will probably setup Librewolf to see how it runs. You can change a browser pretty much like socks that's the best part about Linux.

Did the same…. Converted an Old HP G70, dual core Pentium II, running Win Vista. The laptop was acting as decrepit as the Resident Houseplant. Loaded Linux Mint a week ago and have been sporadically reading your forum to expand applications and security. I’m sold! MS is gone! I have 4 more laptops that I will convert in the coming weeks and then begin investigations to get away from Apple. Have even convinced grown children to give it a try. Boom!

Installed Linux Mint on a Crucial P2 500GB 3D NAND NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD meant as and upgrade for my HP Envy but decided to use with a external USB Shockproof TPU Case so I can boot up on any device as an external drive until I'm ready to remove Windows 10 completely which won't be much longer since I haven't used Windows since creating new drive! Also just finished setting up my Linode VPS with my own OpenVPN which is up and running! Thank you Jeff and all contributers

Hey MacBookPro owners, what distro are you running and why? Also for those with multiple machines, are they all the same distro or is each one different. Is anyone using a virtual machine as a daily driver?

I converted my old 2012 MacBook Pro to Linux Mint successfully. Goodbye nasty tyrannical big tech!

Happy weekend, friends!

We hope this retro computer picture brings back some happy memories for many of you today. ☺️🇺🇸

You are going to love having a de googled phone. I love mine.

I got suckered in years ago. I'm getting rid of everything now and thankful to have all these options available to me from all you guys. Appreciate it.

I love my degoogled Sony XZ2 Compact

Can I install Linux to an iMac8.1, Intel Core 2 Duo with 2.4 Ghz processor speed?

Same with my Pixel 3xl running FDroid and Aurora on anonymous profile. No Google apps means amazingly fast.

You can install the rEFInd bootloader on your iMac (or any other Mac that doesn’t appear to be booting from USB), which will allow you to boot (and install) Linux on your system.

There was a time when elitists on the West and East coast convinced the rest of America they couldn't be involved in technology, because it was "too complicated."

As the truth is revealed about the history of figures like Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates, many may realize what made 'big tech' dominance over the technology industry possible. Spoiler alert: It wasn't the raw talent of the founders.

Technology is not as hard to build as they'd like us to think. It's time for real Americans to build it right, with real American values.

8 Linux powered machines here(PC, 4 laptops & 3 Raspberry Pi 4s running LibreElec/Kodi), not 1 Micro$haft controled system. I'll bet if I searched real hard I could find a box of win 95 disks I last used in 99. I'm no Linux expert but I won't back down from a challenge to get something going.

A Prayer for Rescue, Recovery, and Rebuilding

O gracious God,
You are so mighty,
We can never carry the weight
of the world's sorrows,
as you do,
but by your grace,
we will not turn away from them.

Bless and soften the hearts of those who
don't understand our resistance
to the evil substances,
or our fight against the evil forces,
that those who don't understand
may come to know
where true joy is to be found,
by discovering and following Your word.

It is so hard for us, Lord,
to watch our loved ones
being deceived,
and believing in lies.

It’s especially difficult
living in this world of deception,
when our loved ones seem so far gone
they are not receptive
to hearing the truth.

Grant us the patience
to counsel and help
those who do not yet understand
their injuries, for they have been
deceived.

Lift up our spirits,
With with new energy,
so that we may comfort
our neighbors,
our loved ones,
in the coming time of despair.

We pray that you will open the eyes
of our loved ones,
turn them from darkness to light,
away from the schemes of the evil one.

Unite us in prayer
with all those who look for help,
and use us to come speedily to them,
with the truth,
so that they may be rescued,
and restored,
by the true Savior of the World.

We ask these things in your most holy Name.
Amen. 🙏❤️

ArchLinux installed...this was difficult (took me 3 tries) but I learned a lot through the pain...👍
