In the upcoming Cosmic desktop by Pop!_OS, workspaces can be monitor specific, just like MacOS

Really exciting to see all the new fixes and developments! The release of Cosmic is one of the most exciting things in store for me this year!

Teachers. It is such a widely known trope that teachers are overworked and underpaid. So many that want to pursue teaching now enter the market, understanding that they will likely need a second job at some point. Although internet kudos do little to actually address the problem, my respect goes to the teachers.

The release of Cosmic is one of the most exciting developments in Linux that I’ve been looking forward to for quite some time.

Props to you for getting a few to migrate over. Beyond the confusion that comes with federated media sign-up, Lemmy is definitely facing the chicken-or-egg problem. To get people to joi, it needs more substantial, diverse content. But to have that content, it needs a larger user base.

Have you seen many family members switch to Threads? Mine are sticking to the tried and true Facebook. I would have a Sisyphean battle to get them to switch to Threads, let alone Mastodon.

Positive: Government and corporate injustices are increasingly hard to sweep under the rug, and awareness of these injustices is more prevalent.

Negative: All this access to injustices going on can easily lead you down a spiral of hopelessness if you let it, especially when it seems like nothing is being done to fix the problem.

I use Linux for largely the same reasons I use Lemmy. While I’m still far from strictly using FOSS software, I respect the decentralization and freedom that comes with Linux. I have such a deep admiration and respect for everyday people that create/maintain platforms, as opposed to large companies that seeking to profit off their userbase.

While I have distro hopped a number of times over the past few years, I keep coming back to Pop!_OS. Everything just works right out of the box for me, but still gives me the freedom to tweak my environment however I choose. I love their tiling desktop feature and am anxiously awaiting the release of their new COSMIC desktop.
