Yep. Besides, in the case of Galician and Catalan (especially the former) they are endangered languages; there is nowhere where onmy Galician is the official languages, and bad policies are pushing it to the brink of extinction. Most Galician you hear today is heavily influenced by Spanish, so having spaces where the language is protected, in this context, online spaces, is critical to its salvation.

Spaniard here. Paraphrasing famous and international businessman Michael Scott, “You know what? I’m going to start doing it even harder”.

The reason I still use Reddit is that, as a polyglot, there is barely any content in most languages I speak in the Fediverse. It’s already difficult enough to find content in Galician or Catalan/Valencian on mainstream social media such as Reddit or Instagram. I did delete my Reddit account, stopped using the site for weeks but… I found no alternative? The closest was Mastodon, but I never really liked Twitter’s format which is basically what Mastodon is, so it is not for me. And, of course, there is absolutely NOTHING here on Lemmy in those languages. So, between feeding them with free data or not being able to use my languages at all (because I live in a place where none of them are spoken) I had to choose the lesser evil.

I’ll of course hold on to my current laptop for as long as it lasts, but a Framework will be up next.

Same with Spanish: “lado oculto de la Luna”, ‘hidden side of the Moon’.

I thought of trying it myself, but I just remembered I no longer have a ChatGPT account lol

“Rapaz” = Guy, as in a young man, in Galician / Bird of prey in Spanish.

I’m Spanish, and the title not sounding natural to native English speakers is something that happens very often when writing in a language that you only learned at an older age.

Keep in mind that living in an environment surrounded by a different language than the one you artificially try to communicate on comes with such disadvantage, because the grammar structures are not the same and, yet, your brain unconsciously tries to apply them because it is what it feels right or natural to do, even if it isn’t.

PD: El País is a Spanish newspaper.

Here you have another view I took

Sure thing you can. It’s called “La Pedriza” and it is located in central Spain. It is a popular hiking destination, even for families with kids!

As I grow older, I appreciate going out to natural spaces more than ever. This one is from yesterday’s excursion.

I, as a Debian boy, respect Arch as a fellow community-held distro.

This the guy that attacked Debian for being “woke”; ain’t watching him.

Even Richard Stallman uses Linux.

Thanks to you all for helping me understand it :)

Hi! Thank you for your reply. So, if I understood correctly, whenever I click on “Install from Debian/GNU Linux” on Discover I am getting software directly from Debian’s repository (thus, a “repository” in the sense that it’s a place where this software is stored and can be retrieved); same thing when clicking on “Install from Flathub” for a Flatpak from Flathub. This does seem like the safest approach in the sense that it’s the less risky one and, if malware did slip through, such as the XZ backdoor, at least it would not have been due to a personal mistake of mine, but a general one which would’ve affected much more people too.

This, in turn, is different from APT, which is not Debian’s repository, but Debian’s package manager. So, technically, I could write “sudo apt install (anything)” to get any piece of software from Debian’s repository indeed, but I could also use that command to get software from somewhere else also in the form of a Deb package but which would not have come from Debian itself.

Did I get this right?

Thanks a bunch.

Thank you! Honestly, it’s quite amazing that I can enjoy such complex pieces of software made by and taken care of by the community while not trying to sell me anything or sell my data in return. I love Debian and FLOSS in general.

Thanks for joining the conversation and help make things clear. This does help; so, basically, not having manually enabled anything else than Flathub/Flatpaks on Discover, and having Debian’s repository already, I am fine as long as I install programmes from either of those two.
