Does your distro get #Snap out of the box, and are you having issues with Snap?
Regular Ubuntu and Server does not count in this poll. Non-Ubuntu distros don’t count either.
Boosts and comments appreciated. Please comment with the distro you’re using.

#ProTip If you fear a domain may get terminated, use #dig with the tool below and collect the #DNS records of your domain and subdomains. You can use them in /etc/hosts on #Linux and you will be able to continue accessing the server, even if the domain goes down. This is what we should've done with #DistroTest, but it's too late!
Looks like my monitor froze up even on #Linux. Just writing this after the fact.
#Linux is now 31 years old today! #HappyBirthday!
Do you believe #Microsoft has taken over #Linux?
This article might help:

Also, the developer of #systemd went to work for Microsoft.

#SteamOS is a locked down version of #Linux for the #SteamDeck, requiring you to have a #Steam account just to use the OS, but I like it because it is great for #LinuxGaming on a general Linux distro.
If you are #GamingOnLinux you are better off playing Steam and so much more on an actual Linux distro instead, such as Fedora 
or Arch Linux.
Install it on your personal computer (or figure out how to install it on your Steam Deck), and you’ll even be able to run productivity applications on your computer too, such as GIMP and LibreOffice, among others, with much more freedom than Steam OS out of the box.
#KaOS is an independent #Linux distribution based on #KDE Plasma and other applications. Today I learned that it uses pacman, the package manager from #ArchLinux.

I wish #mpv was on the #fediverse. Maybe they can sign up for https://chaos.social.
MPV is my favorite media player on #Linux.
Guys, get ready to see #Linux slowly hit the mainstream over time. The year it does is the Year of the Linux Desktop.

Should #Linux be known for both the kernel and the userland (in the form of Distros such as Debian, Arch and Gentoo), or just the kernel?
Guys, #Windows is on its last legs. Now that it’s forcing Microsoft accounts to Pro users, we just can’t use Windows 11 reasonably anymore.
The only thing left is Windows 10 (unless you want to use 8.1 until January 2023), and that’ll lose support on October 14, 2025. That’s the cutoff date for using Windows. Then stop using it! And stop using MacOS as well!
#Linux is inevitable!
LTT has officially become a #Linux shill.
