I'll check it out. I've been using Breezy Weather and have been happy with it as well.

Ok. I've put in a SSD, I'm looking to add RAM (I may be already maxed out), and run zswap, etc. I guess I'll be sticking with LibreOffice.

I use the laptop for ham radio stuff, mostly, and things like an office suite are secondary.

How is it on resources? I have a i386 project computer running Debian 12 and I'm looking to make it as "modern" as possible. Right now, my fight is with slow browsers and LibreOffice (I'm trying to avoid the Abiword, etc route).

These videos exist for monetization purposes.

Does anyone know if one where to view videos through Piped, NewPipe, FreeTube, etc the view would count towards engagement?

Basically, it's the same upgrade procedure as Debian's with the added step of editing rasp.list.

I know where you're coming from. I have direct access to my music at home and use Strawberry to play them.

Plex (as far as I know) is only "free as in beer," so i doubt you're going to have any success finding a 3rd party music player. I have the Linux app for when I'm away and don't want to use my phone but the tiny, Android-sized Plexamp app on my desktop is out of place, and has its own eq, compression, etc.

I was a Xubuntu user for about 15 years but have an old EeePC running Debian.

I just recently moved my main, home computer (10+ yo EliteBook) to Debian 12 and am very happy. I will be soon moving my amateur radio "shack" computer (bought last year) to Debian as well.

Forcing Snaps and Snaps' terrible usage of disk space (in my experience) is what made me move. The annoying Firefox update warning only served to aggravate me further.

I do use a couple Flatpaks (did with Ubuntu as well) but it was my choice - not a requirement. I haven't had any disk use problems or bad experiences with them.

If like add another question - how about in a RPi too? I believe there is a LineageOS android TV out there. For anything have any experience with it?

I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to change distos. I currently am running Xubuntu and am considering moving to Debian.

I partitioned my drive with a /home parturition that was encrypted with LUKS on install.

Is there a way to properly move/copy keys, etc or should I copy home and them restore it?

If anyone is looking, I made !amateur_radio (https://sh.itjust.works/c/amateur_radio).
