Is this an April Fools joke?

Lol

Why is the reply green like it’s from you, but the bubble is coming from the left side, which is their side, rather than your, right, side?

fhmy.net?

Honestly default GNOME is probably less confusing than this for old people, and even less confusing once you customise it a little.

Seriously, this is good effort! But anything based on XFCE or Plasma is going to look technical and confusing.

Hmm, ok, I tried that, and the command hung without logging anything to the terminal or terminating, and /mnt/jack101 ceased to be a folder, and became a binary file - one I didn’t have permission to access

aarvi@fedora:~$ rclone mount jack101: /mnt/jack101/ --network-mode

Sorry, I should have mentioned in the post: curl worked by itself, just not with curlftpfs. Someone else suggested using rclone, so I’m going to try that

Alright, I added the config, and could use an app such as Rclone shuttle to view the files, but at no point could I set a mount point and I’m still not sure how to do that.

Yeah, I tried without the mount point too, but I think that’s just the same as what Nautilus does. There is nothing under /run/user/1000/gvfs

aarvi@fedora:~$ gio mount ftp://jack101:correct%20password@oncilla.mythic-beasts.com /mnt/jack101
gio: file:///mnt/jack101: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: ftp://jack101@oncilla.mythic-beasts.com/: Location is already mounted

I think it is already mounted, but under the annoying computer:/// virtual directory, not where I want it, and what does it mean by ‘volume doesn’t implement mount’?

Thanks, I tried that and it gave a different error

aarvi@fedora:~$ rclone mount ftp://jack101:correct%20password@oncilla.mythic-beasts.com /mnt/jack101 --network-mode

but I will try to fix it

Idk how to downgrade it, it doesn’t seem to be working

Yeah, might well be there’s an error with this version - 0.9.2/8.9.1

But it also doesn’t seem the old version is available for download…

Hmm, I did try that. It didn’t work, still same error.

Hmm, that also says it should have been fixed last year

This bug is fixed in current master, set to be released in curl 8.10.0 on September 11, 2024.

I know, right? But even with -d, -v, or -o debug, that’s all I get

I hadn’t, I just did, unfortunately it gives the same error.

When searching the Flathub store for markdown editors, I found Folio, which works well for me. I use Syncthing fork to sync my notes folder between Android and Linux, and use https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.printnotes.printnotes on Android to edit it.

As far as I understand it, it’s a GPU optimised for ML, prioritising VRAM over speed.

This looks cool
