I'm a baby in the FF fandom, 15 was my first ever FF game, although I do know a decent amount due to my mom being a longtime fan since FF6. I found it funny that the game was advertised as "good for newcomers and old fans" cause all I felt was disappointment about my first ever FF game, while my mom sat there pissed thinking about how she wasted money on a day one edition (that we didn't open till December 2024, lol)

That game.... I wanted to like it, but after hearing about how good the previous FFs are, and just knowing how good other JRPG series are, I can't believe they flopped so hard like that. Good thing is the other games can't be worse, so that's nice.

I've been dual-booting for about 2 weeks now, and I've been spending so much time in Fedora Silverblue because it's just so nice. I mean, most of the shit I do is browser stuff, so I have no issues there. Most of the time I can get apps to work, but my only gripe is not being able to use NextDNS alongside Proton VPN like I did on my windows computer 😭. I just don't know how to get it to work, and idk how to revert my DNS settings in terminal back to default instead of NextDNS.

But like everything else is fine, and I can still do my schoolwork.

Upvoting this in place of the post, because I really wanted to like the cute, adorable, caked-up mushroom creature, but didn't want to agree with this obvious ragebait 😭

Hey, someone in the friend group has to test the apps ahead of time for when they all inevitably wake up and delete Discord, I can guide them to matrix or SimpleX! This is exactly how it will go right?

Guys... where'd you go?

I waited like 2, maybe 3 days to get approved for Pixelfed.art back around late Dec/early Jan. Since the spike of TikTok users happened after me, it might be more time. Have patience comrade, you'll get there 👍

I can finally say that I'm making the move to Linux now, as I'm dual booting Fedora. I plan to try to do my regular browsing and activity on Fedora, while keeping my school work and what little gaming I do (laptop user) on Windows. Hell, once I get confident enough in my Linux skills, I'll probably move the school stuff over to Fedora too.

I'm doing it mostly cause I've read the privacy horror stories, but also because I just hated Windows 11. Like there's nothing about it that is worth staying for... The excessive resource use, random settings being changed that you have to dig to find, the shitty Co-Pilot ads, and the fact I won't be able to use office once I graduate... Yeah no.

Good thing is I'm a cyber student, so guess I'm just getting a head start for a easier grade in my future Linux class lol.
