Good morning Fedi friends!

I just arrived at my in-laws’ where I only have my #RaspberryPi5 with #Ubuntu as my main computer for the rest of the week. This is my #Linux week*, yay 🐧

Wishing you all a great day! 🌞

*technically 5 full days, but it’s the longest I will have a Linux system as my main computer. I’m excited!

@_elena Seems like we share the same affinity for an Apple Magic Mouse. Not perfect but still my favourite.

@_elena Pi 5 is quite fast for web browsing. Only bottleneck is the SD card, SSD is recommended way for better experience.

@_elena What is important to remember in this situation is that if you feel like your computer is slow or incapable, then it's not because it is Linux, but because it's being run off of a glorified mobile processor.

I remember people complaining that $100 Android phones were bad compared to $1000 Apple phones. It's not the O/S, it's the hardware. :)

@_elena I only had to replace one first gen with a rechargeable version and agree. Otherwise it’s so convenient to once in a very long while swap the batteries.

@_elena I am not very aware of the latests news on web browsers, what are the goods of Vivaldi? Or is it for the wrongdoings of Firefox lately (AI etc.)?

I may switch to Vivaldi and keep it even in the fight :)

@_elena dammit!
The ups and downs of Linux. Still better that being stuck on Chrome or (!) Opera.
