Re: [Software] 20 years of linux - now I've been drawn back to windows
Tame Windows 10 - W10Privacy Change dozens of pesky telemetry and phone-home features. Remove unwanted stuff. I remove pretty much everything possible including Windows Update. My Win10 runs quite well although I rarely boot it these days. I believe it is useful for Win11 as well, although from the ...

Re: [Off-Topic] So who here is looking forward to Ubuntu's 24.04 LTS next week
I use Debian 12 on my desktop, and i installed Linux Mint on wife's laptop. Off-topic, if you haven't already, take a look at LMDE, which is quite good IMHO. If you wish to discuss, please open a separate thread. In context, I think it's allowable here. The post mentions Ubuntu and Mint is based on...

Re: [Off-Topic] So who here is looking forward to Ubuntu's 24.04 LTS next week
I never had any satisfactory experience trying to run Ubuntu. And I never will try it again now that snaps (aka. snap viruses IMO) are ubiquitous in it. I even tried an installation of Ubuntu-based KDE Neon which is the KDE teams bleeding edge demo of their latest, currently Plasma 6. It crashed sev...

Re: [Testing - Trixie] Why some packages are not upgraded?
Maybe waiting for some new dependencies, or newly versioned packages.

You should run that regularly in Testing anyway.

Re: Why is 'matrix-synapse' now in backports?
Maybe the wiki can help you understand Backports better - https://wiki.debian.org/Backports Backports packages usually do not migrate to Stable. "Stable" generally means packages don't change except for security updates. Likely there was something holding back packaging for this one when S...

Re: file transferring process - visualization
FWIW, Nemo (used by Cinnamon) does this as a matter of course. As I recall, so does Thunar (used by XFCE). KDE Plasma's file manager Dolphin shows transfers as a moving bar in the panel, and also an icon in the system tray which you can click on for details such as speed and percentage completed. O...

Re: [Off-Topic] The impossible Debians 12 and 11!!!
It is still supported by the LTS team until June 30, so from a few weeks it will receive no updates and the repo will be moved to archive. Thank you for the info. But i think this is limited and In addition, it is paid support. You are confusing LTS, which is free, with Extended LTS which is commer...
