I usually use my phones LTE (tethered connection via USB) when wifi doesn’t work during the install.

This is what I did. Gave my M1 air to my boyfriend for his coding classes and got a cheap used XPS 13, installed Arch on it and it runs much better than macOS.

Super clean and sleek. I love the Gruvbox colors. So good on the eyes. Amazing setup!

This is also something I noticed when I was looking for a distro for my home media server. Tried Ubuntu Server, saw how they’re trying to push their premium services and nope’d the heck out.

I can understand they want to make money off of their service but I wasn’t a fan of that.

Right. I’ve done my research before and I do have a Pi hole setup on my Linux server. I used Vanced back when I was on Android but I had to switch to iOS for work and stayed on it since.

It sucks because I’d much rather not pay for YouTube at all, but we share the family plan since we’re all on iOS…

Doesn’t it let YouTube ads go through? Because they use the same domains for videos and ads? AFAIK Pi Hole can’t block YT ads right?

I wish I didn’t have to pay for premium, but we’re all iOS users and we use Smart TVs and Chromcasts to cast and I’m not sure how to block ads on those (not Android TV, Samsung TVs).

If there’s a way to block ads there I’d love to know. I can’t really use AltStore either, I’ve tied it in the past and I don’t always have the means to refresh every 7 days.

Noted. I’ve heard of QEMU but I never tried to get it working before. I’ll use that from now on.

I’ve been out of the loop about Linux and I’ll be switching back to it this weekend. What’s the best way to run VMs on Linux now (that supports Wayland)?

Oh wow Antergos. That’s a name I haven’t heard in a minute.

Oh okay I see! Yeah the phrasing is weird and English isn’t my first language so I guess I read it wrong, my bad!

Wow, I’m so out of the loop that I didn’t even know they made Asahi Linux. I was interested in trying it on my MacBook Air M1.
