Please don’t…

Can we organize and force the Linux Foundation and/or OFAC to exclude open source software from these sanctions? Is anyone doing that yet?

Google Maps are such hippocrates! 😆

Probably because of NSFW geographic locations, like https://omaps.app/U4yUt5ZjzL/Püssi

Organic Maps should be 18+.

Why not use bash-completion? The running example you gave is dangerous - you could end up running one or more of the wrong executables.

Arch Linux instead of Windows or MacOS

GrapheneOS instead of stock Android or IOS

Mastodon instead of Twitter/X

Matrix instead of Slack

Lemmy instead of Reddit

Signal instead of phone, texting, and video chat

Jitsi instead of Zoom

Nextcloud instead of Google Contacts, Calendar, and Drive

Protonmail with custom domain instead of Gmail

Jellyfin instead of Spotify, but I still use Spotify… :(

Pixelfed instead of Instagram, but its still lacking content and useable mobile apps.

Haven’t escaped YouTube yet, but meaning to browse Peertube more.

I’ve been a Linux-only gamer for years too, thanks to Proton, Vulcan, Lutris, etc. Still waiting for good VR though.

FOSS or GTFO!

At work the only option I had was to get a Macbook, but I don’t like MacOS, so I installed UTM and I run Arch Linux (ALARM for aarch64) as my desktop. It’s functional, but of course I’d rather have a beat up, 5 year old Dell or Thinkpad so I could just run Arch natively.

I’ve been a Linux gamer for a few years now. I don’t have Windows at all. Between Steam’s “Steam Play” and Lutris, you can play most games without issue. To find out if the games you want to play will work on Linux, check https://www.protondb.com/ and https://aclist.github.io/. Good luck!
