What I liked about original twitter was hearing funny one liners from comedians. If anyone on here can tell me good one-liner comics to follow, I'd really appreciate it. (Also, I think currently 3 people will see this message, so maybe those people could give me a boost?)

“Twenty-one lessons sounds like a lot, but they really come down to a few core ideas: stay curious, stay humble, and remember that the work is always about people - the users you’re building for and the teammates you’re building with.”

I have a first laptop with HiDPI screen and trying to set GUI scaling in .

I enabled experimntal fractional scaling, and set 166% scaling factor in Gnome settings.

For GDK apps there is no problem.
But many other apps are not scaled, or are scaled partly - window header bar is small. Is there universal solution to this? Or how do you set scaling on all GUI toolkits like GTK2, Electron, QT, Java?

Screenshot of 2.8K screen with gnome desktop scaled to 166%.
Firefox (flatpak) is scaled correctly,
Kdenlive (flatpak) is scaled correctly,
VLC (arch repo) window content is scaled, but header bar is not,
Bitwarden (flatpak) both window content and headerbar are not scaled.

’Denmark Switches.’ A national campaign to collectively move off Big Tech. March 20th is Big Switch Day. I’ve named my goal now. I’m already almost deMicrosofted, except for my photo archive. I moved to Libre & Tuta mail and have been purging photos as I await the release of Tuta drive. Now I’m committing myself to just get the photos off OneDrive and on to my computer, that I own, in my house, by March 20th. Then I’ll delete Microsoft. Then I’ll boast about it on the Fediverse.

A ’New year resolution card’ from the Danmark Skifter campaign that you fill out to name your goal – a nice way to make yourself commit. They all begin ’I 2026 vil jeg gerne skifte …’ ’In 2026, I want to switch …’ Mine here is a bright mustard flash card with the campaign logo and says: ’In 2026 I want to switch completely. I’ve already switched from Outlook to Tuta and Office to Libre. In 2026, I will switch from OneDrive to hard drive and EU open-source drive.' Now I'm sharing it, so now I have to bloody well do it.
