I feel like 75% of Mastodon are people talking about Linux. If you don’t care about Linux you feel alienated. I enjoy Mastodon and Lemmy, but the lack of more diverse subjects gets to me if I browse for too long.

Update: I took your advice and purchased a laptop for Linux, and now I care about it! Problem solved.

    Firefox has a tab dragging issue that’s existed for 15 years, and it bothers me so much I stopped what I was doing yesterday to look for a solution, ended up setting up the dev environment and got to wrapping my head around the relevant code.

    This is not what I want out of my browser.

    ask not what your browser can do for you, but what you can do for your browser

    Isn’t the ideal sales pitch

        With firefox, you cannot simply drag a tab out of the window, and place it using your window tiling manager. You must first drag it out, drop it, then mouse back up to the top of the window (because it doesn’t drop where your mouse is) grab the new window and drag it to the new location you want it.

        This is because dragging out doesn’t seamlessly create a new window, like is done in chromium browsers.

        I know it seems like a tiny issue, but I keep expecting this application to work that way and it’s irritating when my tech doesn’t work the way I want it to.
