@downey For the last one, I prefer Matrix but in some case emails are still needed (ex: job applications or administrative stuff).

@downey I went email because it's the one I'd most struggle without but really all of them.

Teknikal_Domain

@downey fine.

I choose debian and emacs... For a decent daily driver that's well supported and capable, with plenty of extensibility

I choose arch and vim... For a flashy machine that leaves the house more often, and is still capable of my standard workloads, though maybe a little more straightforward.

I chose. 😈

@downey Arch is good, if you are on desktop.
Debian is good in any cases, since you can configure your system how you want.

@downey @huntra I still need to try an actual Debian install (rather than an ubuntu-based derivative) tbh. Fedora is excellent though and it’s hard to venture away from something that works so well for me!

@Metaph @huntra I used Fedora previous to using Debian for a while. Both are very fine distros with different strategies.

I just can't. I use arch and fedora. Both of them are great and have their specific pros and cons.

@downey i wish i could see results, but the poll results aren't federating, and although i can see there's 1,306 votes on the original instance, i can't see results without voting again, which i'd have to register an account to do 🤦‍♂️

i can see the poll results on the additional polls though 🤨

#mastodon why

@lamp@animesexual.community @downey@floss.social somehow poll results work now on here :thinking_ai: I didn't think they federated correctly but maybe that's software dependant
