@thomholwerda @vkc One of the things that worries me about reply whitelists is how it can give people false impressions about what people think of a post, because only certain people can reply. This would be used for spreading propaganda.
Unless, of course, below the post it says that replies are restricted to certain people, like Twitter. That might work, I suppose.

@vkc i wonder... does Mastodon even enable to share blacklist of blocked users? It might be a feature I'd use nearly as often as "follow". Like "hey, i trust this user so i want to ban the same nasty morons as they do". Because.. it's an effort to block someone!
On the Mastodon i did it only once. But on boardgamearena... boah, hundreds of bad players (incl. their behavior).

@vkc @virtuous_sloth Sway's great 😃 still trying to get it to work with my Nvidia hardware, though \; but I don't wanna go back to an env that uses the X server

@campuscodi Wow. Well I suppose this is why the AUR is separate from official Arch packages.
When I ran Arch Linux, I never used the AUR, out of worry that I might download something like one of these.

@CM30 I don't know, I pretty much just be myself and if that means less followers than that's OK, it's better than having more followers but faking it, anyway.

@dunkelstern @jadedtwin @c0debabe @maddiefuzz I always liked Windows XP's window decorations, though the widget style not as much (aside from nostalgia lol)

@JP My favorite is the minerals-added-for-taste bottled water, I think. It really depends though

@JP Over here in the U.S. we once got a boil water warning, and it was when I had decided to drink tap water because our filtered water seemed to make me feel nauseous for some reason (I still don't get it). Anyway, I quickly went back to filtered water :)

@defensem3ch Can't "donload" because I'm a "n00b" >D

Fun music! I like it.

@elebertus It's a pretty beastly machine. It's the System76 Serval WS, serw12. Rad indeed.
But I just realized that there was something I did in the past with my system configuration which I perhaps shouldn't've... a bunch of nvidia's systemd services are masked/disabled on my system. I need to try re-enabling all that and seeing if it helps me.
I had disabled them because they reported a failing status, which made systemd think my session was degraded, which was annoying.

@elebertus I was trying to find a replacement CPU for my current one (my laptop actually has a socketed CPU). I wanted the replacement one to have integrated (non-Nvidia!) graphics. But I don't think that'll work out.

@elebertus It's a "GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Mobile" according to lspci.
When using a driver other than Nouveau, many graphical assets go blank on resume from suspend (that's the main issue, really). But sway doesn't work with non-Nouveau drivers for me, I get awful flickering (much worse than screen tearing) and other issues.

Also, if I turn the screen off and wait a while, it will not come back on; the error in my logs says that the 'GPU fell off the bus'.
There are many stability problems as well.
