This is a very late reply, but I ended up formatting it back to Windows 11 and selling the laptop. It’s just not quite ready for primetime, and seems very limited during regular use-cases. I ended up buying a Framework 13 laptop, and installing Fedora on it. Couldn’t be happier! Eventually I may move back to ARM-based machines once they progress a bit further.

This is why I use xManager for free Spotify Premium, YouTube Revanced for free YouTube premium, and torrent everything else that I need. I’m so tired of subscriptions for literally everything.

My spice tolerance definitely increased after living in Sichuan Province for 6 months.

I have YouTube ReVanced on my phone. If YouTube ever defeats uBlock Origin on my desktop, I just won’t watch YouTube on desktop anymore. I refuse to watch or view ads.

I had that same Amazon grinder before I got my Mendo Mulcher.

I do know that there’s a custom guide for installing Debian, but I haven’t tried it out. The hardware support is slowly making it into the mainline kernel, so hopefully some future OS releases will have support out of the box.

I’ve hopped around to a bunch of different distros, but I always return to Debian Stable. I don’t really need the most bleeding-edge packages for my system, due to my use case.

Most of my actual apps are installed via Flatpak, so they’re all pretty recent, while still being on a rock-solid stable distribution.

I always ship packages with UPS instead of FedEx exactly because they’re unionized.

I definitely do recommend setting the max_parallel_downloads to between 10 and 20. I had the same issue as OP with DNC being super slow, and this fixed it perfectly. I don’t know why that’s not set by default.

I use Fedora. I like the combination of recent, stable, up-to-date software, new releases every six months, and firmware updates for my ThinkPad direct from Lenovo.

I had one of the original nanos, but I don’t remember this.

Bash on Terminator with powerline theme from Oh-My-Bash. I think the colors are the generic Linux colors in Terminator.

Hiding was also my favorite feature from Apollo. I’d just go through the feed swiping to hide posts, because if I didn’t then when I refreshed I’d be scrolling through the same posts over and over again.

Nice! I’m also playing around with wefwef as well, and it’s pretty reminiscent of Apollo! I think Memmy said they’d be releasing on the AppStore soon, so you shouldn’t have to wait much longer.

I need to learn how to make my own oils like this. Really cool!

Yes, it’s on TestFlight.

I’m sad that Apollo is gone, but Memmy for Lemmy fills the hole left in my Home Screen just fine. The app has already progressed so far, it’s licensed under the GPL, and it has made my transition from Reddit to Lemmy flawless.
