Re: What are the aims of Linux Mint?
It seems many users, myself inc. would like to spread the word, go out there and convert some of the oppressed masses find the freedoms of Linux, to save them from the price-gouging of Mac and Microsoft's laundry-list of sins... ...but if we were to do so, we'd swamp you poor developers with suppor...

Re: What are the aims of Linux Mint?
sounds like he's handing us a resume lol We can kick Microsoft in the nuts and get millions of Win10 users to change over, win win! We can do this! don't really care actually, the whole point of linux is choice, hence a ton of distro's to choose from and desktop environments, if your not happy with ...

Re: ClockTow Desklet Fork
That was 4 years ago, to be honest I didn't even remember this post until I got the email notification, I know it was a desklet back when I used mint and cinnamon but I'm on manjaro now with xfce and if I remember right it was a desklet already provided by someone else with just some modifications t...

Re: Is distro hopping ultimately pointless?
It's not pointless if you haven't found what you're looking for. There are more than 100 to choose from, probably more. Seems the moment some basement dweller learns how to assemble a distro, it's added to the already unmanageable list. Nowadays I need to know who is behind it, whether one or two p...

Re: End of KDE
I put the wife on arch once, although she loved the speed, and didn't mind taking care of things through the terminal all the time, she prefers using software managers and upgrade managers instead like mints. There's a whole bunch of software & upgrade managers that work on Arch Linux. Anything...

I been using manjaro for quite some time now, you should enjoy it catweasel, it's pretty solid on most points, the rest of the family gets mint to make my life easier on fixing stuff. I use the xfce vers...

After telling the person not to stare because it's just rude, they keep staring and in the end you ju...

So what would I be doing differently? Probably the same as the rest of us....... nothing. I have to disagree with you there . I am not one of the " us " , and I'm guessing that there are many others on here that take the same view . A simple first step is to take full control of your rout...

Re: EU threatens code sharing (and therefore Linux software development)
This is entirely ridicules, nothing more then a police state attempt on the internet.
I signed it and passed it on to another forum to have them sign it as well.
What do they plan on doing, taking down or blocking github now?
Freaking nuts.

Re: The direction I dream for Linux
I use both proprietary software and open software. I have no issues paying for software if it can do what I need it to do and there is no open versions available to do the same job. As far as graphic programs go I have always liked and chosen open over proprietary just cause I like the fact I can ad...
