Reddit API blew up and now I run Linux?

I feel like I've been gaslit into running FOSS but every success only brings me closer to fighting god

sudo hostnamectl set-hostname SOMETHINGNORMAL git clone https://github.com/popey/unsnap cd unsnap ./unsnap
The first one will set the name behind the @ sign to something not that long. I recommend just usint "PC" for privacy reasons. Often nobody needs to know your device model.
The second one removes snaps and snapd and installs installed apps as flatpak instead. Flatpak is a universal format, similar to snap, came out a bit later but not only Ubuntu uses it. Snap also works on multiple Distros but people dont like it, it is still slow (now just slowing down boot) etc.
- perfect demonstration of culture sharing for a newbie. Like advising them to always trust commands they find online without even explaining them what each command does!
  
  It's a good way to get comfortable with reinstalling your os!
  
  Free security pentest!
  
  Right, added an explanation
- What hostnames do people use? I'm tired of (and bad at) naming all my devices, I just tend to leave default as op, at least I can tell them apart easily
  
  I have NekkoDesktop, NekkoLaptop, NekkoLaptopJr (new laptop) and NekkoServer :) (Phones are just Nekko <Release> with release being S9 and S21 for Samsung or G6 for LG)
  
  I do it similarly
  
  I use names from FFXIV.
  For my work-related VMs, raid bosses. It makes it easy to spot my VMs because nobody sane would name them stuff like Erichthonios or Hippokampos. Unfortunately I had to draw the line at 724P-Operated Superior Flight Unit A-lpha.
  For my home server VMs/CTs, I use the names of the gods - Byregot, Rhalgr, Azeyma, etc. and Eulogia for Proxmox itself.
  
  Wow that's so much more fun than naming everything home or vm or work
  
  You could also name them so everyone can identify what they are at a glance instead.
  
  desktop, laptop, server. Lame but always clear.
  
  i use a surface pro 6, so i use "surface" as my hostname
  it was running arch+gnome
  i tried endeavouros+kde (because i used to use the sway version of it on my dell and liked it) but didn't like it
  now it's running arch+kde
  
  Culture ship names. https://theculture.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_spacecraft
  
  I name them after fictional robots/AI
  PC is Deep Thought, laptop is Wheatley, phone K9 in etc
  
  I go with a UUID so I never duplicate. 🤪
  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier
  
  Moons of Jupiter.
  
  I use work for work machine, and home for home
  
  PC. Privacy reasons
  
  my old desktop was named George, inspired by the word "GeForce" on the gpu. my new one is Leo, mostly because I just like that name, but also because it's my first desktop built for linux. My first server was Bertha bc its physical size was a lot bigger than I expected and I had to find a new place to store it, and my newest server is even bigger so I named it Marge. My clunky old 16" laptop from 2010 is named Mondo.
  
  My PC is just arch Linux and my laptop is computer
  
  I use LoL champs, there's at least one for every letter of the alphabet
  
  charlemagne for my desktop, and invictus for my laptop - no particular theme, just liked the names lol
  My servers however previously used gods from Greek mythology though, as controversial as that apparently was (?)...
  (To be fair, I think the controversy was regarding doing that in a professional / enterprise environment of which I am definitely not in)
  
  Similar to other people:
  laptop-56
  phone-56
  server-56 (or the actual domain name...)
  ...palmtop-56 (I'm not sure if that's actually possible)
  I like the look of all-lowercase hyphenated words. And "56" is a conveniently short identifier I use for myself.
- Ubuntu-debullshit is also pretty good.
  I originally thought people will be confused by gnome, but my wife picked it up almost instantly, and has been pretty happy with it (except the lack of MS office, but there is nothing that can be done in that regard).
