@npub19la…hm4g Excuse the ignorance, but how does that work when it comes to for example user lingering?
Say I have units that are ran by my user all the time, surely homed with encryption will prevent this from happening?

@npub1qg4…augv Why do you think I left linux in june and haven't gone back since, for the gui? I fought for years to use it, and at one point I went like, fuck it I'm done.
I still use it day to day and only in command line. I'm not willing to deal with the state of the gui any time soon, especially that on my machine, I'm forced to use wayland, since xorg keeps acting up and causing actual major crashes.

So, at the beginning, Linux started with console only for us blind folks. It is only in 2007 or so that the GUI really started taking off. Back in the days of gnome 2, the accessibility was extremely impressive. The UI was fluid, and every program in ubuntu (that's what I was using back then) was seemingly designed with accessibility in mind. Reality was probably different, but to me, it seemed this way. I loved it. Ubuntu 8.10 was the first Linux I ever used. Of course, QT was not even on the table yet when it came to accessibility, but, it was the glorious days of GTK.

So, this morning, after years and years of using the GUI in Linux, I gave up. The state of the GUI does nothing but deteriorate over time for accessibility, and it's exhausting. It's only getting worse. We're far, far away from what it used to be, years ago. Certainly, the QT framework has improved since 5 and now 6 came out, but GTK? Oh dear, oh dear... So, let's dive into it. #linux #xorg #wayland #a11y #accessibility #blind

@npub1svs…p66u is there any way to have the default post visibility set to unlisted? I know it can be done for replies, but I haven't seen for new posts.
