I don’t distrohop much these days because I’m happy with where I am. But I actually enjoy having a clean start once in a while; going back and experiencing the defaults for a time helps clarify which customisations are actually really useful and which ones I’m just stuck in a rut with which happens a lot more than I usually expect. Of course I back up all my data/media and move that across, but configurations I like to approach with a clean slate. It’s quite freeing to know that I can just wipe and reinstall my system at any time without much difficulty.

Lots of red flags about this project, the website seems to be primarily fixated on pointing out how “bad” Thunderbird is, which isn’t a good look. Thunderbird works fine for me, this seems all a bit toxic.

It’s on Flathub. It’s open source C++ so what ever you can compile it for.

I totally get people saying things like “I couldn’t live with GNOME because it’s difficult to customise” because I used to be that guy. It took a significant shift in my mindset to come back to GNOME (having moved away from it previously when GNOME 3 was first released).

Out-of-the-box GNOME, with no extensions or tweaks.

I used to be a customise-everything kind of guy. But I’m not naturally efficient, so any workflow I designed for myself would always end up being inefficient. With GNOME I see it as a kind of off-the-shelf workflow that I can adapt to, something I wouldn’t have come up with myself but it makes me more efficient.

Yeah, I don’t disagree there, as somebody primed on Esperanto, familiar with the -ejo ending, it looks like an Esperanto word to me so my original instinct was to pronounce it in the Esperanto way but with the ‘hard-g’. I guess to be fair they would have more problems if they asked everyone to write ‘ĝ’.

It comes from the Esperanto forĝejo meaning forge (noun, literally a site, ejo, where forging takes place). So soft g, and j as English y. /forˈd͡ʒe.jo/

Not many names come from Esperanto so that’s interesting. :)
