Yes… Melted on anything…
Yes… Melted on anything…
Literally have not been back since I decided to leave before the blackout.
Considering incised to spen hours a day s rolling that place, I haven’t missed it and just moved on. 12years or more I was a regular contributor and viewer and quit cold turkey style :)
I haven’t tried that, will definitely give it a look… Thanks for the suggestion ! Much appreciated;)
This hits the nail on the head… I can get by with GIMP or InkScape or Photopea but they don’t quite cut it when I have job going out worth a few grand I want all the tools, checks peace of mind of the locally installed app. I also find GIMP convoluted to achieve basic tasks. Even things like resizing images to canvas etc. Feels clunky by comparison to say Affinity Photo.
Either way, I can never get 100% away from the big boys as ultimately I have to test natively in Windows and Mac OS so it’s not the end of the World having to boot into Windows or Mac OS occassionally to undertake the tasks required :)
Hi there, yea I have tried it and kudos to the developer it’s an awesome piece of kit.
Unfortunately, for me at least it’s just not the same as running native Affinity Suite (which is my go to). We occassionally produce print work for clients as well as developing UX templates and I can’t seem to replicate my workflow in Photopea or any of the other available apps. I wish Affinity would produce a Linux version but when asked, they said the uptake just wasn’t there to make it worth their while :(
I’m really pleased I have managed to move the bulk of my work over to Mint and ultimately, I will always be left having to test applications natively in Windows and Mac OS so it’s not the end of the World I suppose as I can’t ever fully get away from them.
I’m currently using Libre Office and It honestly covers the full gamut for me. I haven’t once felt “man, where’s that option”.
It’s really solid and come a long way since I first used it !
I technically started with Steam Deck and finally took the plunge of partitioning my daily driver to install Linux Mint back a few weeks ago.
No regrets…
I’m a developer (web app predominantly ) and find I can use it for about 80% - 85% of my daily workflow. Things I miss and can’t substitute are mainly around image editing / vector editing where GIMP and InkScape are just not there for the way I work.
Loving my time with it and would highly recommend anyone on the fence take the dive and give Mint a go. It’s incredibly familiar the moment you boot it :)
It’s good to know I’m not alone… I buy a lot of games and have a huge catalogue over a number of systems. It really is the thing I enjoy most as downtime.
However, I can count on one hand how many title screens I have seen over the last 5 years. I get so far, lose interest, move on. Several months later I will feel like playing again, wipe the save and start over rinse and repeat.
Games that keep calling me back however are Skyrim, Fallout 4 and the Bioshock trilogy.
Gerally it’s decent… I don’t use it anywhere near as much as I used Reddit but I’m not sorry to see the back of that place.
It can be a little buggy sometimes, responses dont post or further posts fail to load. I think the lack of consistency is whynim using it less at the moment but overall, happy chappy :)

The older I get, the more I fucking hate obnoxiously loud cars… It was like a switch that went off in my head when I hit the 35-40yrs old mark.
Pumping base tunes from said vehicle is additional hate.
This would seriously make my day if true… I was a Boost junky until I decided to leave Reedit a few weeks back. Would love to have the same (or very similar UI and features) here for Lemmy !
Sweet Jesus is that true?? We really are living in a dystopian nightmare!
This is just beautiful! I’m most definitely sharing this with my Co dev tomorrow. He is going to love the level of scope creep (he is well known for dropping us right in it and leaving them get away with things never discussed or agreed before hand) and the dogs and logo is chefs kiss!
I’m perplexed daily by what planet some people are living on. Just when you think you have witnessed it all, seen every crazy request in the book a client drops one pit of the blue that leaves you with a feeling of “how the fuck do I respond to this without insinuating their a total and utter moron”.
I have given up on Logic when dealing with clients… Trying to figure out what they actually mean is never what they actually mean.
It seriously blows my mind that some of these people are like CEO status of huge companies. How they even function in every day society and remember to breath is beyond me.
Ha ha… That’s perfect !
Completely agree… I see so many posts with “I would like this feature from Reddit etc.” But honestly, it’s quite refreshing to have something different.
The API changes were just the straw that broke the camel for me as after 13 years plus on the platform, it didn’t even resemble what I initially signed up for.
I legit hope Lemmy doesn’t turn in to a Reddit 2.0 where every reply to question is someone trying to be a smart ass and where not conforming to the ideology of the masses gets you nuked.
I too remember the days of IRC and I remember sitting in certain channels where we would all take turns in staying silent and allowing someone on the chat to hit the record voice and play a Jazz song they loved. I would sit there all night listening to and sharing music with people from all over the world drinking beers and chatting among ourselves.
Man, the early days of work arounds and early internet I miss. Every night of surfing was seriously exciting as you never knew what you would stumble on or find. Now it’s the same dozen websites over and over rinse and repeat.
Anyhow, nostalgia and gripe over… I agree 100%.
I’m really enjoying Lemmy as is and don’t want to be wishing it away any time soon !
Glad I made the switch back to FireFox a year or two ago. As a Dev, I was entrenched in Chrome and it wasn’t an easy move but with the path Google are currently treading around ad serving, blocking the ad blocks etc. I feel I made the right choice…
