Great. I’ve been using matrix just for myself, but our local dance group went to discord because FB was being such a pain to deal with

Great news to hear. It would be cool if they put out more info/news/blogs about the issues they run into

Haven’t paid much attention to this side of things, but this will definitely be an important goal to reach

I use Linux mint on my old Thinkpad and for the most part it works great. I use Kubuntu on my desktop. Asides from from weird hardware issues I had when initially setting it up, works great as well (Wayland too).

I agree with others: Linux mint, fedora, Ubuntu. Honestly, whatever gives you the least number of issues

Is this going to be a truly new key or just a shortcut?

I didn’t think that the market share was actually changing much? Like it’s low but it’s still used, especially on Linux workstations with nothing else pre-installed

This is the unfortunate truth. Mathworks tools are heavily used in the engineering space, so it’s an obvious choice for academia to teach.

As much as I try to get my company off of Matlab/Simulink, it’s a challenge. Just so much legacy already written in it

Didn’t realize you could host your own, that’s good to know

Being able to download your own data would be a start

I’m hoping that something like this will start affecting the smartphone market

When my current laptop eventually dies, I’m gonna see what framework has before any other. This looks like something that I could upgrade & maintain for decades

Is that really something that’s been happening?

Interesting for sure, I never would have thought you could build an entire desktop with JavaScript. Getting support for regular Linux apps would be a must for me

Would this allow for users to customize their desktop with their own JavaScript? Not sure if I missed it, but does it handle multiple monitors?

The interesting thing for me is that the federated system allows for a potentially huge variety of business models, and we’ll get to see what works and doesn’t. Whereas reddit has to stick with just one

Yeah this AMA was eye opening for sure
