    Talking about Ansible in a “choose your first Linux distro article”? That and dismissing Mint for first timers make me not recommend this for noobs.

      Yeah Ansible is not beginner friendly. Still the only known “solution” to the distro management mess, outside of other ways to do it entirely

    Holy crap, that is a lot of text.

    Next time, try crossposting.

    On my instance, it is this button:

      I only use Lemmy through Jerboa, where this seems to not be available?

        yep, jerboa still does not have the cross posting functionality. you can try other clients like Thunder.

          Jerboa is the only stable one I tried, but I will try Thunder. I like the simple design of Jerboa, tried Raccon but it was a bit too flashy. I like markdown preview tho

            Thunder is great. I also like Summit.

              All clients suck, back to jerboa. Tried interstellar (confusing, weird notifications) and Raccoon (nice but buggy and some other issue).

              And thunder was the one using dynamic code loading…
