Maybe Debian or Ubuntu…? I started with Debian and like it.

Why don’t you try it out? Create a VM and see if you like your distro…

I think, there is even a website for this…

https://distrosea.com/

I was asked what I think the button is good for and I answered it above:

For spam, for hate, for racism, for off-topic-stuff, for advertisement, for trolls, for “bad” bots, for people who ignore facts, …

Well, I think, it’s an interesting topic and I like to share arguments.

If I’d actually worry about downvotes, I’d probably delete my comments.

Why does it exist? I can only tell you what I use it for: For spam, for hate, for racism, for off-topic-stuff, for advertisement, for trolls, for “bad” bots, for people who ignore facts, …

A personal question: How exactly do you differentiate between a post that suggest to destroy country XY and a post of someone who thinks, that topping XY on a Pizza is good, although you don’t like it? IMO, one of these 2 posts is way worse than the other.

Sorry we aren’t saving you’re precious feelings

You don’t hurt my feelings. You hurt the platform (Lemmy).

I just want to make people think about it.

I hope, I did not hurt your feelings… I mean… You couldn’t even accept the existence of my post without downvoting it…

Imagine, you have an opinion and 30% support it and 70% don’t support it. Now, you post it, get 30 likes and 70 dislikes. You total score is now -40. What do you do now? Some people will think “What a stupid platform”. Some people will delete their post. Some people will leave the platform.

by using one of the fundamental features of the website

Ever wondered why Facebook, Twitter, … have no dislike button and why YouTube removed this “fundamental feature”? Because it caused too much negativity which is not good for the platform.

it’s best to shrug and move on

I understand what you mean, although not saying anything means not even having the chance to make someone think about it…

Who defines that? There is a third option (not clicking anything). I use that for disagreement. If I disagree, I write a comment why I disagree instead of just using the middlefinger button and creating echo chambers…

That sounds as intelligent as downvoting all comments that contain the letter “t”.

Downvoting different opinions (we are not event talking about insults, racism, … here) is a perfect way to create echo chambers. Guess, why Facebook, Twitter and like 80% of all social media sites never introduced a downvote… Guess, why YouTube removed the downvote… Because the average user does not seem to be able to accept different opinions without flooding the platform with downvotes.

I think, you have also a few opinions where 7/10 people have a different view than you. 70 people press downvote, 30 press upvote. Now, you are at -40 and think about removing your post, although a 70/30 opinion isn’t that crazy at all.

I think, downvoting every different opinion hurts the platform. That’s why my like/dislike ration is probably like 98/2…

Thanks for sharing your opinion instead of just downvoting the tell out of my comment for no reason like the others…

I don’t share that it looks futuristic.

It was a serious question from my side. I’d have predicted that the concept fails. It’s a surprise for ne that it did not…

I don’t understand why peoole buy this. It looks like the early 2000s weren’t done yet. It looks like a step backwards IMO.

Edit: Ah, nice… This gives me Reddit vibes… Getting downvoted just because you have a different oppinion. “10 dislikes? No, not enough!!! Take mine, too!!!”. What’s the goal? Do you want me to delete my post? I don’t get it…

Do you mean, what I installed via FDroid?

Aegis Authenticator, DavX5, Element for Matrix, KeePassDX, Nextcloud synchronozation client, omWeather, OsmAnd (open source navigation), Simple Calendar Pro, Vlc Player, Voyager for Lemmy

FDroid makes it easy to find the Open source version of all tge types of apps…

Nice.

The draw feature is actually only available if installed via FDroid so far, because FDroid contains pre releases. They plan to release it everywhere this month.

I have 2.13.10 installed via FDroid.

Hi,

Thank you.

I was able to get it working.

What really helped me was the fact that you can see the logs of stuff in /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/:

sudo journalctl -u systemd-suspend --since "7 minutes ago"

I think, I had a bug in there or the execution rights of a file was not set or similar.

Now, I have pretty much done what the suggest here: https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Apple/MacBookPro/Early-2015-13-inch

I’m glad, this is working as intended now.

I know that it’s a hack. A really bad hack TBH.

But I wasn’t able to get it working differently.

This is the service code I’m using (yes, I know… It’s very bad, especially the pinging):

while :
do
	if [[ $(ping 192.168.178.1 -c 3) ]]
	then
		echo "pinged"
	else
		if [[ $(lsmod | grep brcmfmac) ]]
		then
			sudo rmmod brcmfmac
		fi
		sudo modprobe brcmfmac
		sleep 250
	fi
	sleep 15

done

When closing and opening my MacBook, it’s necessary to execute sudo rmmod brcmfmac and then sudo modprobe brcmfmac. Only executing the 2nd command is not enough.

@MonkderZweite@feddit.ch

Your first 2 paths under /etc have a description like this:

kernel modules to load at boot time.

The problem I’m having is that I have to reload the module when the laptop was closed and reopened.

So, I think, the first 2 paths won’t work, right? It’s not boot time?

Something like the 2nd path was described in a tutorial about getting started on a MacBook with Linux. I remember it.

But the path you described does not exist on my system.

I have a path /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/, do you mean that one?

This contains 1 file (probably created by me in the beginning) called lid_wakeup_disable:

 #!/bin/sh

# /lib/systemd/system-sleep/lid_wakeup_disable
#
# Avoids that system wakes up immediately after suspend or hibernate
# with lid open (e.g. suspend/hibernate through KDE menu entry)
#
# Tested on MacBookPro12,1

case $1 in
  pre)
    if cat /proc/acpi/wakeup | grep -qE '^LID0.*enabled'; then
        echo LID0 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
    fi
    ;;
esac

Do I add rmmod brcmfmac; modprobe brcmfmac; (without sudo) at the bottom?

I’m thankful for any help to get rid of the service.

Ditched that shit long ago. You know Markdown? Use Joplin!

Update: I tried it out and it seems to work.

I was able to enter:

tag:hello tag:world test

and the search found only the document that had both tags and the word test.

And

tag:hello tag:world

for example does not give me notes in the search result with only one of the tags…

So, what you want, was probably implemented.

😅 Nothing to do with that ideology!

Fun fact: I used emojis to reproduce and report a bug in the Lemmy web UI. That’s why the ⚡s are there.

And thanks.

Yeah… Good question… I observed this feature for a month and was surprised when I found the feature. I donmt think, there is a big announcement. That’s why I posted it here.

It seems like you misunderstand what Joplin is? Or I misunderstand what you are saying… I don’t know…

Joplin is a note taking app that fully works on markdown. You can use it on your local PC, but you can also synchronize the notes over devices.

Joplin is hosting the image on the user’s instance - you’re in feddit.de, so it uploads to feddit.de.

Joplin and Lemmy have nothing to do with each other. I have just taken a screenshot of the rendered markdown document in my Joplin app, switched to my web browser, opened feddit.de and posted the screenshot in this community.

If you want to say that using Joplin just to draw and post pictures somewhere, would be a bad idea… Yes, that’s right. But it’s primarily a note-taking app, so that’d be expected… And usually, the notes are private and nothing you want to regularly post online…

Meanwhile, the old reddit app I used to use (Relay) would upload to imgur, all seemlessly in the background, then paste the link code in my comment. This kind of functionality is what I would like to see.

I’m generally against hosting files on instances, anyway. It creates extra server load.

Well, Lemmy is a decentralized system. Hosting all image resources on a centralized service (imgur) is probably not what the majority wants…

I’m a software developer (my background), I was always kind of interested in it, but primarily the fact that Apple stopped giving my 2015 MacBook Pro OS updates, including security updates, which forced me to do something.

And yeah, Plasma or GNOME is pretty much how the OS looks like.
