• Please don’t theme our apps

  Sure, and if they just said "we'll close tickets for anything to do with theming" or similar, it'd be fine, but instead we get: > We understand the need for distributions to stand out. However, we urge you to find ways to do this without taking away our agency. We are tired of having to do extra work for setups we never intended to support, just to have that used against us when people tell us the breakage from... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Vanilla OS 2.0 Orchid base is changing from Ubuntu to Debian

  Something like Regolith perhaps? https://regolith-linux.org/ Or did you mean just GNOME but with more keyboard driven window management? If so there is tiling assistant extension for GNOME that isn’t bad from what I’ve heard. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• What is a good alternative desktop environment to GNOME with these properties?

  You may want to try out the regolith-linux DE, its gnome+i3 sort of mixed together. https://regolith-linux.org/ Its a bit unusual in some ways compared to 'normal' gnome and i3. But its usable, and has sane defaults normally, you can tweak it like crazy if you want to learn how it works. Source: over 1 year ago

• Hardcore tiling WM and terminal users that switched to KDE or Gnome, how is it going?

  Https://regolith-linux.org/ best implementation of i3 on Ubuntu out-the-box (and other distros) imo. Check it out. Source: almost 2 years ago

• tiling/floating window manager hybrid?

  Https://regolith-linux.org/ - regolith has its own .iso but you can also install the regolith packages on top of standard ubuntu as well. Source: about 2 years ago

• When downloading and exmaning files from the darkweb, what is the safest option for opening a file in virtualbox tails.

  Virtual box Tails is pointless. Just use Whonix.. To examine files also use VirusTotal. Source: over 1 year ago

• currently running tails over vm on the most secure settings for both programs what could be a point of weakness like would u recommend a vpn a proxy chain? what would u recommend for extra anonymity?

  Running TAILS in a virtual machine for anonymity is a fools errand. Research Whonix and its independent gateway and workstation VM. Configured correctly the only network interface of the workstation is the gateway over Tor providing a higher assurance of security. Source: over 1 year ago

• Firefox with tor?

  Whonix is a Linux-based environment that can theoretically transport any TCP/IP application over Tor and greatly reduces the potential for IP leaks by having a secondary 'gateway' that runs Tor independent from the client device over a private network. Source: almost 2 years ago

• How to Code Anonymously, Part 2: Network Security

  The previous strategy is great, but it's actually easier and more effective to just use Whonix. Whonix is a Linux distro - designed to be run out of VirtualBox - that implements all the goodness of the previous strategy. Even better, it comes with a novel network architecture that involves two virtual machines for extra protection:. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

• Qubes os Team - issue report

  Since this appears in sys-whonix, I suggest reporting this to the Whonix team. Source: over 2 years ago
