  • This right here. I tried to join Mastodon today.

    Download the most recommended app, Moshidon

    Open app and get asked which instance i want to join. There are no suggestions.

    Do a search for instances and pick one, go to the website and register with email and password. Requires email confirmation. Still waiting on the email confirmation link, 4 hrs later and 2 resends.

    Literally haven’t been able to sign up yet.

    Even if it had worked, the workflow would have been to change back to the app, type out the instance then re-login.

    I’m not sure how anyone expects anyone other than the most hardcore to sign up for these services. Maybe that’s the point but if the point is to grow the user sign up process to significant overall










  • They advertise as being zero maintenance which is a huge deal with many windows and Mac users than don’t want to think about the tool itself, they just want to use it. From the site:

    What’s the difference between Vanilla Kinoite and Aurora? Vanilla Kinoite is a very stock experience. Aurora includes many enhancements and tweaks, like included drivers for various printers, network adapters and more as well as included codecs. Aurora also features tweaks to enhance your battery life on a laptop.


  • If you don’t want to think about your computer and just want a tool to use there is Aurora. It’s a variant of fedora but it uses an immutable file system which makes it super stable and reliable. If there are any issues you can easily roll back the entire os to a previous version.

    This is true of all fedora atomic desktops. Aurora is a variant that takes it to the next level by making all updates and everything require as little human interaction as possible so you don’t have to worry about how the computer runs and just use the computer for your actual tasks.
