Thanks for the explanation!

Can you please “installing applications and finding files splattered all over the file system”, please kind person?

How does Linux do it better?

lol someone was concerned about the Chinese military using Meta’s AI models and now the company has opened its models for US military use. Hypocrisy runs high in this timeline.

I agree with others that you need to break down these requirements into multiple apps. I use FreshRSS for feeds and it has a bunch of mobile app integrations.

And the most recent update of Linkwarden seems to have a ton of features that might be worth your while, including PDF, screenshot, and Readable caching.

Could it be that the one who tweets is also this scammer?

I’ve used pyTK to make some apps for personal use. Good stuff, somewhat easy to use once you follow some tutorials.

Such pain, and you didn’t bother to name the GitHub project you’re trying to make work. Maybe it’s not allowed in this sub?

Anyways, maybe you need to install python-dotenv from conda-forge? Never done this before so don’t know if this will work. But worth a try.

See here. Might be worth your while to just do

conda config —add channels conda-forge
conda config —set channel_priority strict
conda install python-dotenv python-dotenv-with-cli

There, fixed that for you.

The analogy broke down somewhere as I wrote it. Perhaps I should have said “mobile” instead. 😃

OP, you say those folks only launch a chrome browser and so aren’t choosing Linux themselves. Fine. But looking at it from the system perspective, they’re inadvertently learning how to use Linux. How to make WiFi selection in that interface. How to deal with patches and upgrades and vulnerabilities and hacks. Sure, they’re basically only using the browser. But do they never download a file? Open it in the system file browser? Attach it back in the browser?

All of these user interactions are what define a person’s experience on a system. If you think of one of the main differences between iOS and Android, you’ll see how in iOS files are a second class citizen and apps are first class citizens. That means iOS defers to the app first and then considers a file as an independent entity. That’s a strategic decision that defines how generations of iOS users perceive the world around them. It’s what helped companies like Notion become the behemoths they are because everyone accepted that if you want to build a knowledge base, you can just start writing text in an app or browser and not consider files as the first point of contact for the knowledge base user.

By using Linux on a day to day basis, those users are slowly unlearning what they’ve come to understand is the default behavior of a system - most likely whatever Windows does.

Somewhere down the line they’ll crib and hate on windows enough to what something different. That might end up being Mac, but for a large swathe of people, it might end up being some Linux variant too.

Companies at that level don’t give a cap about ’valuable’ employees. They would just as easily get rid of the high paid employees.
