aMalayali@beehaw.orgOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•What are your favorite DE's that you use on a laptop?English1·2 years agoThank you.
If you haven’t tried them, I recommend giving them a try. They all have something to offer.
I have tried them on desktop and in most cases, I did not have any serious issue with them. I was thinking which one would be better optimised for laptops.
KDE handled things very well
I’m on KDE now. It’s good. Was thinking whether there are any DE’s that are specifically recommended for laptops, for efficiency or ease of use.
I think you’ll have to use the website.
There’s a Block tab in Settings.

Not a programmer, but is php bad?
In the past, I had read that logins in websites were handled using php and mysql. Is some new/better language popular nowadays?Edit: Thank you for the responses.
aMalayali@beehaw.orgto Linux@lemmy.ml•What disros works on low end, slow, very outdated pc's?English2·2 years agobest option
Ubuntu is popular and new-user friendly. And xfce is generally lighter on resources. It’s a good choice.
What can I do
Almost everything.
Some proprietary apps you’ve used from windows may not be available, but equivalent ones would be available on linux.
Stuff like browsing the web(provided that you don’t open too many tabs, because you have low ram) and watching movies n all is quite good.
What all things fo you intend to do on it? I think it’ll be easier to check that the things you want are there.

aMalayali@beehaw.orgto Lemmy.World Announcements@lemmy.world•So um I got this weird problem.English2·2 years agoHave you informed the admin of your instance?
I think they’ll be able help you better, whether it’s some server error or so?
Indeed. If you’re looking for communities currently, maybe this will help:

Opensource/FOSS:
Kdenlive, Openshot, ShotcutIt think Shotcut is the simplest to use.

Chrome generally felt faster on google services like Meet tho.
aMalayali@beehaw.orgto Chat@beehaw.org•I already developed a habit of going to Beehaw instead of RedditEnglish15·2 years agoReplaced Infinity for Reddit’s icon/launcher with that of Jerboa for Lemmy.
aMalayali@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Edge automatically sends images you view online to Microsoft by defaultEnglish0·2 years agoEdge is/was(have read that windows fixed some defender issue) slightly faster than firefox.
Stalin
Certain aspects of Stalin? Or in general?
Backed up and deleted all your posts and comments? Is there some sort-of simple way to do that, for people who’re not programmers?
aMalayali@beehaw.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•for the Reddit refugees, do you also feel a bit heartbroken?English2·2 years agoI’m from the state of Kerala in India. We had 4-5 active n quite decent subreddits on the state, local memes n all.
People are moving into lemmy, but many might not. Some might stay away from reddit, even after the blackout ends. Overall, I think they were fun people to interact with and since it’s not sure whether an equivalent community will be built up here, it’s sort of a loss.
Upvoting because of Aubrey Plaza
What does this mean tho?
An idea cannot fight weapons/power without public support. And for public support it needs to be daring enough point out the opponents? And for this the idea needs to be rooted on human life?
