This isn’t related to the context of the post, but I recall giving a review in an earlier post regarding the blog site. Assuming you (positive-intentions) are the same person as the author of the previous post (xoron), It’s impressive how you came this far with your blog and apps since then.

Your blog post about bottom-up browser state management was particularly interesting because I was dealing with indexedDB before and ended up going with a wrapper while I personally wanted to work with a custom solution. The explanations for the code snippets are to-the-point, easy to follow and overall well written which I really appreciate as a person not experienced in reading blogs.

Also I enjoyed your in-house illustrations. Keep up the great work!

For further context, the website is virtually completely local and could be self-hosted. Aside from hosting the project itself, there is no central server to manage any aspect of the users’ interaction with the site or allow communication with other users. There is no sensitive data stored barring the name of the user for which a pseudonym would be just as acceptable.

I think mentioning the ToS and privacy policy is pointless for creating an app like this. If it is possible, I would rather write them myself or omit them altogether.

The Emptiness Machine by Linkin Park.

Listened to it for the first time two days ago and kept it going since

Thank you so much! I checked that he starred in the show ‘Severance’ which I just watched recently, which is why I could recognise his face.

Who’s the guy in the second panel? I swear I’ve seen this guy somewhere recently and it’s been seriously bugging me

1. For Linux enthusiasts, how do you decide which distro you would like to try out next among the plethora of options that are available? The difference I perceive between majority of distros gets smaller the more I try to understand about them.

2. What are the minimum issues I am likely to face using the most beginner friendly distro like Mint for programming and light gaming?

3. How customizable is the GUI in Linux Mint specifically? What if I want a start menu like Windows 10 with the app list and the blocky app tiles? What about those custom widgets I see in hardcore Linux users’ desktops?

4. I heard there is no concept of file extensions in Linux. How am I supposed to work on my projects that I imported from my Windows machine that do contain extensions?

Bonus: Who creates those distro icons in color coded ASCII in the system info command in the terminal?
