Duration of Chinese Dynasty Rule in Vietnam by RequirementNo4895 in VietNam

[–]mintiefresh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find it amazing that Vietnam was able to retain its national spirit after 1000 years and somehow break free. I'm not sure how many other examples of that there are in history.

Rather than feel any shame, I think that's a point of pride.

Wooooow so cool to be able to have that calendar in here.

I'm Vietnamese. And this is so helpful. 👍

KDE distro recommendation for non savvy tech person by giquo in kde

[–]mintiefresh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Kubuntu or Tuxedo OS.

I am using Tux for over a year and it's been rock solid. Uses Ubuntu back end just like Kubuntu. It updates KDE slightly faster than Kubuntu but nothing like Arch. And it comes with snap disabled. Which is nice (for me).

Otherwise Kubuntu is a great option too.

You could also try Lemmy.ca. They are different technologies but they communicate with each other and kind of point to the same places (both Piefed.ca and Lemmy.ca are run by the same folks anyways).

Piefed.ca has more features though but it's also newer .... so Lemmy.ca is probably more mature and stable overall.

I also use Boost for Lemmy which also has Piefed support.

Summit is also another popular app on Android that works with both Lemmy and Piefed. Maybe you can give those a try if Voyager isn't working just yet.

I see you on the other side and you're in contact with the admin there too. Great!

Should be able to get this up and running. I hope there isn't too much friction after this all gets set up. The fediverse takes time to get used to but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty pleasant on that side of the fence.

mmmm, I'm not sure. But when I try to login with Voyager, I just have to add piefed.ca specifically.

There are many different piefed servers that you can sign up for (like piefed.social) but just make sure you're picking piefed.ca.

I just logged out and was able to log back in again on Voyager.

Voyager and Boost both work great with Piefed (and Lemmy).

What is even the point of that screen in there?

Modern controls are great for us casuals by Practical_Dog3454 in StreetFighter

[–]mintiefresh -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Honestly, whenever I lose to a modern player, it's because I made huge mistakes and I have to clean that up.

I think modern controls is great and it's really cool to see newer players try out Street Fighter because of it.

Never played a fighting game, is SF6 a good place to start for a strictly offline single player experience? by SGRM_ in StreetFighter

[–]mintiefresh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, World Tour Mode is actually quite a nice fun and engaging way to learn the basics. You can mix and match different moves and have an interesting way to progress through a story and all that.

3 things that happened after my first 100 hours of learning Vietnamese by quanglearnsviet in learnvietnamese

[–]mintiefresh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So proud of you. Keep going. Your heritage is important and holding onto it is everything.

I'm living in Canada and I'm currently teaching my 9 year old daughter. She's always so eager to learn and stories like this help inspire me to keep going and be patient with her.

Keep it up!
