این «بزرگان» اشتباه می‌کنن. داخل انگلیسی، software به معنی نرم‌افزاری هست که تعریف نرم‌افزار رو رعایت می‌کنه. هم یعنی نرم‌افزاری که تعریف رو رعایت می‌کنه یا نرم‌افزاری که رایگان هست. نرم‌افزاری که کد منبعش در دسترس هست هست که ممکنه متن‌باز یا آزاد باشه یا این‌که نباشه. به عنوان مثال نرم‌افزار متن‌باز و آزاد و کد منبع دردسترس هست. ام‌اس ۱ هم صرفا نرم‌افزار کد منبع در دسترس هست و آزاد یا متن‌باز نیست.

I just wish someone takes all the good things in evince (gnome's document viewer) and all the good things in Xournal++ and combines them to form an all in one libre pdf reader-annotator.

The people who are using Xiaomi Mi A2 aka , what are your plans to do with it apart from throwing it away? Lineage OS has dropped support for it and I am finding it impossible to install the version of Ubuntu Touch based on 20.04. PostmarketOS too isn't usable on this device at the moment. Is there some custom ROM which can be used on it?

Say goodbye to bloated, closed source software – CoolerMaster to release new, open source version of it’s software with API integration – and it can work with other coolers too!

Does anyone know how to use mutter as a stand-alone X11 and/or as a stand-alone display compositor? I couldn't find much in either the manpage or in the archwiki.

There's some irony, since was forked from Gogs to give more power to the community, in its "owners" (including original forker) giving away the project to the newly created company Gitea Ltd. after being elected by the project maintainers for one year.

Hello
I have been trying to use () with separate partitions for /home and couple of others. However, I have been facing the problem of /var becoming full and thus blocking further updates and installations. Most of the time deleting /var/log/auth.log would help but now I have messed up and can't startup lightdm and using it from another tty.
Can you guys share some tips and tricks as to avoiding this problem? I know keeping everything in one partition is one such trick. Anything else?

I don't use for management or reading. The only reason I have it is for converting files from to and vice versa.
Does anyone know of any other tool which can do the same? Preferably commandline.

It's more rewarding to make better apps for mobile distros like and and make them usable in existing Android devices than focusing on niche devices like and . At least that way, more people will use mobile linux as a secondary device.
