I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong, but I have a secondary SSD in my laptop that I mount on /mnt/elyssa and in every DE and distro I tried it appeared as a removable drive with the “eject” button. Right now I use Fedora with Gnome and if I install this extension or enable the removable drives option in Dash to Dock, it shows me that drive. Maybe some mount option in Gnome Disks, but since it’s not that big of a problem, I haven’t looked too much into it.

Oh shit, is real: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.devcel.2022.01.005

I always liked what Charles Darwin wrote to J. D. Hooker in 1853:

After describing a set of forms, as distinct species, tearing up my M.S., & making them one species; tearing that up & making them separate, & then making them one again (which has happened to me) I have gnashed my teeth, cursed species, & asked what sin I had committed to be so punished […]

It describes perfectly the feelings of a biologist while doing taxonomy work.

I mean, I mentioned that my experience with Pixelfed has not been the best, since it lacks content and discoverability. I wouldn’t sign up again to Instagram (I deleted my accounts years ago), but it’s obvious that it has orders of magnitude more content, and maybe the recommendation algorithm can be useful sometimes.

Personally, even if I don’t want to, I have to use WhatsApp since everyone in my country uses it, even government offices.

Seymour! The house is on fire!

Tab Stash seems to be what you’re looking for.

But people in the 90s were doing their work just fine, with that same UX paradigm. What’s the difference now?

Just to be clear, I’m not saying that software’s UI and UX doesn’t need to evolve. But it bothers me that a perfectly usable UI gets criticized only because it’s “old” and doesn’t look “modern” (tf is a “modern UI”, btw?).

So, the problem is that people doesn’t have a working memory anymore, is that so?

What’s wrong with the 90s UX? It lets you do your work without being intrusive or annoying, so what’s wrong with it?

Melodysheep moment. Their content is simply amazing.

I’ve been using Firefox Vertical Tabs since 1 or 2 years ago and my experience has been satisfactory. Now, I’m not a vertical tabs power user or something like that, and if suddenly I cannot use them anymore I can go back to use horizontal tabs without much problem. At this point I’m just accustomed to them, but they’re not an integral part of my workflow.
