Of course posts older than a day are still useful. But how useful is an experience report on an OS that is over 2 years old? I have no idea about Void Linux, but whenever I seek a tutorial on something, I limit the search to 1 year, because stuff changes. Take the discussions on VPNs recently for example. For many people a lot changed due to policy changes from some VPNs. All threads regarding those VPNs that are older than 3 months should be viewed as archived.

One could argue that a post from programming humor is still as funny as it was 2 years ago. But I don’t want to see the same post over and over again, just because someone wrote a comment in it. And old posts aren’t gone and can be found if one wants to. But I don’t want posts to stay on my front page for years.

This makes lemmy almost not usable for me. If I sort posts by active or hot, I get 80% posts that are older than 2 years. Always with new comments.

I belive that fixing the sorting algorithms is extremely important for lemmys success.

I (and many of my colleagues) do this since I switched to laptop 7 years ago. I use them during my whole time in university (CS using Linux).

They are very reliable. And (at least the old models that I use) can be fixed manualy when something is wrong (change SSD, RAM, thermal paste,…)

If money is no issue, I would go with a framework (I have no first hand experience with them). If money is to be considered, I would go with a refurbished ThinkPad.

I use posteo.net for 10 years now, and I am super happy with them. I don’t get spam, and I have never missed an email.

They choose not to use a spam folder system, and I understand their reasoning, and agree with them.

They sometimes get criticized for some other decision (something to do with certificates, if I remember correctly), but after reading their reasoning, I agree with them.

In my experience, they have now real downside, and I recommend them to everyone I know when they come to me with email problems.

Gestern habe ich jemand in 20 Metern Entfernung angekling, weil er (mich sehend) lieber auf den Fahrradstreifen lief, als auf den freien Bürgersteig.

Seine Reaktion darauf war zur Seite zu gehen, um dann zu versuchen mich von Rad zu schupsen.

Ich könnte mich noch auf dem Rad halten. Aber der Schock war echt ätzend.

So ein Typ im Auto würde mir auch sorgen machen.

Zu beginn ein Kilometer langen das Highlight der Strecke:

2/3 der Strecke sieht aus wie hier, mit etwas Entfernung zum Wasser einen Fluss entlang:

Und das letzte drittel ist in einer stinkenden, vollen Straße:
