SDF user since 2001. BSD user since 1998.
Just here for the tech discussion.
I started with lemmy.ml because I didn’t know what other server to use.
Then I found out that SDF, which I’ve used since 2000 or so, was hosting its own Lemmy instance. Since I’ve already been in that community for decades, I migrated my lemmy there.
Beehaw is really nice as well, that is where my spouse, who has zero Fediverse time, joined.
It’s not the blue emitting light that causes eyestrain on OLEDs, it’s the low frequency pwm used to control brightness. Basically all the pixels turn on and off a few hundred times a second, not slow enough for your brain to consciously notice it, but fast enough for your eyes to react to what is in effect a strobelight right in front of your face. That is how dimming works on an OLED.
You end up with devices that still cause headaches and dizziness because they flicker in this manner, but are “eyesafe certified” because they filter out the blue light right before bed.
Suckless on OpenBSD.
You might also try one of the alternate operating systems like Haiku or ReactOS. Haiku is very lightweight and supports both Qt and some Wine-based apps. Maybe K-Meleon on Haiku works for your system.
$2687 for a Ryzen 9, 64GB of RAM and 4TB SSD.
cwm on OpenBSD is going to fly.
Honestly, fuck Bandcamp. I used that platform for years, purchased a huge library, supported artists even when I was about 90% sure that some of them were just resellers providing rips of the original artists music.
And then for no reason at all a few weeks ago, I was asked to verify my account via email. Despite using the correct autosaved password. That email never arrived. Never arrives no matter what I try. So I cannot get back in. Support is like check your spam folder like motherfucker you don’t think that’s the first place I went when I didn’t see the conformation email?
Fuck the new ownership. Fuck Bandcamp. Good luck with your upcoming job search.
