(non-Android) Linux phones aren't really ready for daily driving even for relatively advanced users - but it looks like we're gonna have to deal with it anyhow

I doubt it's possible to have them all installed and have a functioning system anyway

Go grab yourself a beer and have a stroll through your neighborhood to celebrate your freedom from draconian laws :)

You're good. If you like your setup please don't feel like you need to change. Ubuntu will serve you just fine.

Now if you just like tinkering or configuring....

The main drawback of Ubuntu is mainly that people don't like Canonical, the company behind it. They can be very opinionated in their decisions. Also many prefer rolling-release distros (like Arch, or OpenSUSE Tumbleweed) where you get much quicker software updates over Ubuntu and other traditional distros.

I can sympathize with being frustrated but that's silly

Yeah I traveled for that one and just barely avoided the clouds. Memory of a lifetime.

If you ever get the chance to see one it's actually quite a bit more odd than a cloud passing over. It feels kinda wrong. Shadows do funny things especially around things like tree leaves. The colors are just kinda eerie. Like the other person said we're not super good at telling light levels so it LOOKS sunny but the sunlight doesn't feel warm.

But yeah if you don't know it's happening it is totally possible to miss a partial eclipse if you're inside or busy and just passing through outside.

There used to be some extreme right wing instance but it instantly got defederated by everyone

Probably because it accessed it through a user's browser/connection which until that point hadn't been flagged as a bot and had consistently shown signs of human use.

I'm sure if you set up a bot farm with this your connections would be flagged very quickly.

FUCK THIS IS THE WORST

MY DEVICE IS SET TO SPANISH. THERE IS NO WORLD WHERE I WANT TO LISTEN TO A SPANISH LANGUAGE VIDEO IN ENGLISH WITH A SHITTY AI VOICE

Like I'm cool with the option. I'm even cool with it turning on by default according to your account settings.

BUT WHY IN THE NAME OF FUCK CAN IT NOT BE TURNED OFF????

The first time it happened I assumed I could just go to the audio track settings because some creators put in multiple tracks with different languages. BUT IT'S NOT THERE.
