I jumped off Reddit’s cliff and landed here just like many other Lemmings.

  • This is completely untrue in my experience. My X230T has two battlestations: One with an old, square Samsung VGA monitor, and another two hours away with a modern, DisplayPort, high resolution Dell. I regularly hot-swap monitors by unceremoniously pulling it off or slamming it on to either docking station while it’s running, and even transform it into tablet mode and flip the internal display output 180° without upsetting the external display.

    All of this on Fedora 38 Cinnamon, firmly running X11. No “jank” in sight.







  • They did kill it for me. I was grandfathered into the G Suite software because I signed up back when it was free. Last year they turned around and said “we know we told you that, as an early adopter, you could have this forever; but now we’re kicking you out unless you start paying.”

    And then they killed IMAP access (without oauth) moments later. Fortunately I was fast enough to set up my own mail server and copy my family’s emails, photos, documents, etc. out of Google. I haven’t trusted them since.
