And that is exactly why I bought an M2 Air this year, price vs performance nothing beats the MacBooks at the moment.

I got mine on release day and I’m currently at 93% it does seem a bit much.
If you have a pi kicking around or a docker instance of pihole you can use it to take over dhcp of the router and then set the dns servers in pihole.
That’s what I do currently on my home hub
Yeah I use phones on a daily basis as a part of my job everything from apple to Samsung to one plus etc
Honestly, they’re horrible I can’t believe people still buy them when wanting an Android experience. They come with so much bloat now and it just feels jank constantly.
I’d never recommend them to anyone but then again, Google Pixel devices aren’t much better due to how unstable they are and you’re essentially beta testing the phones as you go. Big part of the issue with Android phones these days.
I refused to buy Apple products for 15 years. Recently I grabbed a whole set of them and honestly, there’s only one thing I can say. It just fucking works.
I’ve been using Linux/Windows for the better part of two decades and I’m just at a point where I don’t care to tinker anymore unless I have to, I just wanna have stuff that works especially when it’s related to work stuff. Apple stuff is just reliable in that sense, oh my Android phone decided to crash on itself? Yeah my iPhone has had 0 crashes all year I’ve owned it. My M2 Macbook Air has superior battery life and portability at a more reasonable price than pretty much any competitor on the market?
Yes certain Apple things are beyond stupid expensive, Hello Apple TV 4K 128gb being £180 on launch?
But when I want something to work and not have to think about it, the apple stuff fits that need.
What would you describe as large?
The company I work for is a multinational at this point and exclusively uses Google for Mail/Docs. We have I think 600 stores now across 12 countries.
I haven’t seen all of them in person, but the other day someone showed me the StarLite which is their budget laptop and honestly it really surprised me. The only thing with similar build quality I’ve seen at such a low price was the google pixel book go which can be had used absurdly cheap.
I think they’re the company I’d use to buy Linux laptops if I used one daily, these days I use a MacBook Air m2 simply because the battery life beats all and for how I work that’s what I need most.
If you’re genuinely looking for Linux Laptops I’d take a look at https://starlabs.systems/pages/starfighter

It’s definitely progress and seeing myself in one of the top results was nice but it’s going to take a lot more work and tbh the decentralised nature of the links might also hurt because clicking on the dbzero link looks like a hackerman link if you know what I mean
The most useful comment in this entire thread, the search results are a bit of a mess currently and that’s a huge stumbling block.
I tried a simple search query with lemmy and the way results come back is not good
it’s going to take a long time for that to change but just as a casual user I doubt I’d click anything past the first few reddit links.
Is journalism biased because it doesn’t agree with your worldview? That’s one hell of an authoritarian take.
Really feels like we are in that sort of a world these days where if something comes from someone you don’t like or agree with it must automatically be fake.
The legacy of 2016
Can anyone tell me the advantage of selfhosting Lemmy?
I have my Raspberry Pi which is only doing pihole atm and I’ve got an M2 Mac mini with some spare resources with docker installed so I’ve got hardware for it but what does it actually do?
Honestly Plex/Emby/Jellyfin whichever you prefer is a gamechanger because if you have a large library of content then it just cuts the cord from the subscription services.
I’ve always been happy to pay for them until I went on holiday last January and realised that none of my services were working due to going to a country that was out of the way and the only way to access them was to use a VPN.
So having my own Netflix is a great thing.
Tailscale while doing the above is also really cool
Yeah that’s a good way to put it, when I picked up my Air recently I was extremely frustrated by how it didn’t quite do things quite like Gnome 40x and how it missed some of the Windows things like Window Snapping but once you get used to the gestures it’s not so bad.
Also yeah virtual desktops are a god send on Gnome/MacOS it’s frustrating to not have them on Windows.
undefined> If you’re trying to get it to act like Windows or your favorite Linux window manager, you’ll find it frustrating. However, if you absolutely insist then you should just install a third-party window snapping tool.
I mean there are things in Gnome that I prefer but what I found useful was to start using the workspaces / virtual desktops more and using the three finger swipe up a lot on my Air. That helped when using multiple profiles on chrome a lot because using cmd + ` was just not it for me.
Auto snapping would be great but at least you can tile windows to left / right so that’s something and you can add keybinds for it
I’d only change one thing and say most of the problems for Iran started because of the UK/US being imperialistic and has never recovered as a result
