Maybe delta chat could be the right thing? https://delta.chat/

It uses email technology to implement the secure chat

Grub can do themes, anime girls are possible in Grub for at least 15 years.

Gentoo is great if you want to proper learn Linux and love to tinker and build a personalized linux system.

For 1: As a beginner keep away from global use flags, stick to per package use flags. Global use flags can make things very complicated.

I fear you missunderstood me: I think systemd with all the integrated features and tools is great, having all the features and tools is such a huge benefit for a professionell sysadmin who has to connect to and administrate lots of customer server every day.

But that is my opinion, I fully accept that people don’t like systemd and that’s the great thing with Linux: If you don’t like a component then you are free to drop it and use something else. So have fun with your systemd free systems!

That is so true. For me, who works as a Systemadministrator, systemd is about the best thing that happened to linux in a long time! It makes my work so much easier

I used a lot over the last 25 years of Linux, started with Debian, Suse Linux, then some years with Gentoo (i learned so much in that time, I can recommend it), and now I am using Arch.

Arch gives me lots of the freedoms and possibilites that I am used to from Gentoo but without the constant pain of compilation. I have Arch on my Desktop, all my servers, my NAS

What you want was very performant and easy doable with X11 (by its nature as a client/server architecture), but not with wayland. The additional Software layers on top of wayland will destroy performance and introduce all kind of issues.

Thats the price we have to pay for the shiny new things

The landlord has valid rights too, fighting policeman is definitively the wrong solution to this problem. The proper way would be in implementing a wellfare system that helps this (mostly old/sick) people when they can’t pay their bills. Fighting policemen for evicted people would be like only putting a bandaid over a punctured arthery. It may help for a, very short, time but in the end leads to nowhere.

But this is a tangent and topic that is very interessting to discuss but i fear is way to offtopic for this place

I would fight the law itself, not single persons.

So you say that opinion and subjective classification of good or bad is the only valid measurement?

That is the issue with double standard, everyone has their own subjective viewpoint of good or bad, of morality, of which laws to ignore and which to follow. And a lot of really bad things are done all the time in the name of good and moral reasons!

Why make any law at all if only personal, subjectiv morallity matters?

When the Ai companys acted after this maxime, ignore laws until getting sued, there was a huge outrage but here everyone wants the same from open source companies and developers.

It seems that double Standards are fine after all.

Yes!, and german words can even get bigger!

Germany has a similar law already active

§12 Jugendmedienschutzstaatsvertrag

(1) Anbieter von Betriebssystemen, die von Kindern und Jugendlichen üblicherweise genutzt werden im Sinne des § 16 Abs. 1 Satz 3 Nr. 6, stellen sicher, dass ihre Betriebssysteme über eine den nachfolgenden Absätzen entsprechende Jugendschutzvorrichtung verfügen. Passt ein Dritter die vom Anbieter des Betriebssystems bereitgestellte Jugendschutzvorrichtung an, besteht die Pflicht aus Satz 1 insoweit bei diesem Dritten.

(3) In der Jugendschutzvorrichtung muss eine Altersangabe eingestellt werden können

But yes, neither such laws nor the implementation into systemd is in any way positive and should be fought

I am not spreading fud, I only added something to a list. The fact that we have such a law is not known by many, even most germans are not aware of it, that is why I talk about it. It is only possible to Protest and fight against something if it is known, and I try to spread this knowledge. This is a way to fight against it, or at least the preparation.

I am very sorry that my posts gave the impression that I am not against such laws, because I for sure am!

And Yes, i should have said that I fear that more countries created such laws, my pessimistic world view got me when I wrote my first post.

Germany has effectivly the same law, active since december 2025, and I am sure more countries will intruduce such laws soon. Linux Distributions have to be compliant with this laws, if we like it or not.

I use ArchLinux more or less on all Device where it is possible It runs on my workstations, on my NAS, on my servers

Reason for that is: I am lazy and this way I don’t have to learn how to administrate different Distributions.

I migrated two years ago from tt-rss to freshrss and have never looked back. It just works!

My servers and NAS were created long before Docker was a thing, and as I am running them on a rolling release distribution there never was a reason to change anything. It works perfectly fine the way it is, and it will most likely run perfectly fine the next 10+ years too.

Well I am planning, when I find the time to research a good successor, to replace my aging HPE ProLiant MicroServer Gen8 that I use as Homeserver/NAS. Maybe I will then setup everything clean and migrate the services to docker/podman/whatever is fancy then. But most likely I will only transfer all the disks and keep the old system running on newer hardware. Life is short…
