Man, with 293 @pop_os_official has a big lead in our Best Distro, way ahead of second place Fedora with 125 votes. Third place @ubuntu is almost out of the running with 82 votes. Distros need to get their users voting. I'm talking to you @linuxmint , @debian , @manjarolinux , @MXLinux , @opensuse , @elementary , and @EndeavourOS . Boost this toot to get the word out, and vote here: https://fossforce.com/2023/01/its-time-to-vote-in-the-best-linux-distro-polls-final-round/
@ebassi Thank you for trying to explain GNOME's point of view on Reddit. It can certainly feel like a thankless job.
@karolherbst NVK and its impact will be easily felt in the Linux world. This is so exciting.
I never knew how to put it into words. There was something powerful distilled in places that spent decades alone, silently deteriorating, that made me feel I could almost make out through the shimmering mirage of the waking world. I was watching these places go somewhere, become something, but it wasn't time yet for me to see it. It ached to be so close to something I could never define.
@hansolo_ Sucha great list!
This should be the top story on every news outlet...

@maxandersen For 2023, it would be neat to JBang in the main Fedora and RHEL repositories. It would be nice to install it without needing a third-party COPR repo.

Are you feeling lonely during the festive season? Have you tried the hashtag #JoinIn?
It works like this:
- During Xmas period, or any time, write about what you're doing and include the tag #JoinIn. It doesn't have to be anything elaborate or impressive!
- Search for (or follow) the tag #JoinIn, reply to other people's posts with that tag.
I know it sounds kind of simple, but it's worth trying!
I'm going to be on my own this year due to ongoing pandemic, but will see you at #JoinIn โ
