  • Systemd is mile ahead of the others, thing is that solves problems that you most likely don’t have or even know that exist. To boot a regular machine or small server pretty much any init system is good.





  • don’t know a lot about fastcgi, but looking it up it seems like it also keeps a persistent process running to avoid execution overhead

    More of less, the good thing about PHP + fastcgi is that it keeps a configure amount of minimum persistent processes (plus a dynamic number) to avoid execution overhead like you said… now there’s an important detail, PHP processes are generic, meaning if you’ve 50 apps hosted in your server they can all be served with just one persistent process. No need to spin up 50 processes for each app like with node/go etc.

    Supervisors shutting down containers/processes are good, but starting up is slow compared to the single PHP idle process ready to go for any app. :)




  • The only problem with Ungoogled that makes it “not ideal for a normal human” is that fact that it is still cumbersome af to download it. Regular people don’t know github and how to click on “show all assets” and pick the right build.









  • Sure, can they consider stopping wasting money / time actually develop useful stuff? For a DE that got €1M from the Sovereign Tech Fund they’re not showing results.

    Okay fine, desktop icons can be a design decision, however a “disable animations” toggle on the settings that doesn’t disable ALL animations… that’s just poorly made software, not something you may have an opinion on.
