    I believe money shouldn’t be involved.

    Just match sellers and buyers together and let them figure the terms and transaction out themselves.

    All that is needed is a way to find what you want and a solid system of building trusted profiles with ratings and such.

    Not a simple task, but keep the money out and it will all be easier.




  • I believe you are fixating on something that won’t have much impact regardless of what choice you make. I have been using “windows keyboards” on Linux for years with literally no problems (related to keyboards and Linux). I mostly game, browse the web and work as a software engineer.

    Focus on what feels good physically/ergonomically for you and your workflow and you’ll be golden.

    The only caveat I’d throw in there is if your keyboard of choice has some sort of RGB program for Windows or other custom software. It might not be as simple to control that functionality from Linux, but in many cases there are open source Linux alternatives for that software.


  • I get your point. But Linux Mint does not have Snap by default, so that does not really apply.

    I’d still recommend the normal Ubuntu based one since there is so much easily available help out there for any Ubuntu based system.

    The Debian dist is (iirc) just there in case Ubuntu becomes unsuitable as an upstream in the future. I would treat it as a safe backup option, not a primary choice and def. not something I’d recommend to beginners.

    But that’s just my take on it :)






  • Situations like these are the strength of the fediverse. Move your account to an instance that shares your values or doesn’t care about stuff like this.

    Maybe you shouldn’t even have had your account on the largest server to begin with?

    Edit: Didn’t mean to ridicule any of you all. I based my comment on my experience when I signed up. At that time there were plenty of instances to pick from and getting approved at my instance of choice was very quick. My bad.
