Easy one I hope. LMDE5, trying to add a user. According to various sites I checked, it's easy enough, go to control panel, users and groups, click on add, and fill in the details, and bob's your uncle... Except that it didn't work, still just the one user on the log in screen. Tried giving the new user the same permissions as the current one, no dice, have also rebooted, and nothing. So, either I missed something, or the system isn't behaving, but either way, I could use a hand with this, thanks.

No? Well, keep an eye out for a Poof Daddy show in your town

Seeing as how I don't like either Gnome or KDE, though I did give KDE a try, I decided to switch to Cinnamon. Yes, that picture looks odd, I'm short on monitors that'll fit on the space I have left on my desk, so I'm using an old Dell with a 4:3 ration thanks to an HDMI to VGA converter. Some how there's dust in the display though, which is really annoying. Not much to say, if'n you've used Linux Mint, this should look rather familiar, it's just lightly customized at this point, it'll get more, and it works as you'd expect. Yes, this is the X11, and you're supposed to use Wayland. Funny thing about that, this is rock solid, whereas with Wayland I had a bunch of silly problems, can't drag tabs in Firefox, menu glitches, and no keyboard customization. General problems are minor, boot is real slow, I mean real slow, and Sat's update broke wireless, but I'm only feet from my gateway, so wired it is. Overall this works real nice, basically Mint running on an M1 iMac.

I'm getting an alert that BitWarden needs a new permission on my devices, but can't figure out how to do that, clicking on the alert simply opens Firefox and I can't find anything in settings or add ons, so how does one do this?

Have to give the person who created this credit for his scene choices, they did a great job of mining Star Trek's cheesieness.

Which is a shame as it's a really nice fork of Firefox. That picture doesn't do it justice, you can see the three row tab bar that expands only if'n there's enough tabs, nor the hide away bookmarks toolbar.

So why the thumbs down? Well, for starters it ate all my settings, I closed it, realized I'd forgotten to do something, reopened it, and default. If that were it, that wouldn't be so bad, but while installed Firefox wouldn't work, At first it was some minor glitchiness, but when I closed Floorp and went to use Firefox to research the problem and what the solution is, my three home tabs didn't open, and the one tab that didn't showed Tumblr but the browser displayed the Firefox new tab window, as did any other tabs I opened, it was completely unresponsive.

Really it's a shame, because Floorp is a really nice browser, and the customization is great, not just for eye candy, the vertical Thunderbird like toolbar gives easy access to things you need, the hide away ( like your taskbar can) bookmarks toolbar makes it easy to get to your bookmarks without them taking up space. Unfortunately, it's far too buggy to use.

I do wonder, how many of it's features are available in the config? While the vertical toolbar and built in syncable notes obviously aren't, what about hiding the bookmarks toolbar? Moving the toolbar and tab bar around? Multiple tab rows? Are their extensions to add some of this?

Y'all might've noticed the lack of posts here. Near as I can tell, this has never successfully Federated beyond Lemmy which kinda defeats the purpose, so I've moved it over to it's own account on Mastodon, recalls@social.xcetera.biz rather than it's original form which was as a subsection of news@social.xcetera.biz
