    Secure messengers - Signal and Telegram

    Good to know, since it was seeming like you were saying that it was that easy. I have used Threema in the past as well but that's even more of a niche than Signal of those who use it because no phone numbers needed to add contacts, but it's a one time payment for the app...

    Use a Flash Drive or an SD card as Ram?

    If you don't have the money to spend on ram just use zram because sd card's are slow. https://opensource.com/article/22/11/zram-swap-linux

    Solved Why isn't bash math working?

    I said it the other way around, almost the same but in reverse. ;) Anything you can run in bash you can run in zsh, so not much learning to do.

    Secure messengers - Signal and Telegram

    You were mentioned peer-to-peer encryption, how does that make Telegram better. So peer-to-peer is another term for end-to-end? Yes there is a reason to use Whatsapp because none of my family members or social contacts are willing to switch to something else because everyone around them uses...

    Solved Why isn't bash math working?

    In @rado84 OP he was doing 3+2 and got the same error. That's why I mentioned it. I didn't see that he got it working a reply letter by typing it manually. So something in copy pasting must have not gone right. Yes I know that. maarten@masterzen:~$ echo $SHELL /bin/bash maarten@masterzen:~$...

    Try running it under a different user account, maybe there is something in your shell configuration that prevents something from happening?

    Secure messengers - Signal and Telegram

    Are Telegram use t end-to-end message encryption by default yet, last time I checked that wasn't the case you had to select that you want to use it for your message. I did some searching and came across this. https://tsf.telegram.org/manuals/e2ee-simple I just reinstalled Telegram to try...

    Secure messengers - Signal and Telegram

    I prefer Signal and use it with several people but lets be real, everyone else around me still uses Whatsapp and they aren't going to switch to Signal just because I'm the odd ball in the pond that uses something most of the population hasn't even heard and most people around me aren't going to...

    Alma Linux isn't an official bug for bug compatible RHEL clone anymore. https://wiki.almalinux.org/FAQ.html#what-does-abi-binary-compatible-with-rhel-mean https://almalinux.org/blog/future-of-almalinux

    Autostart applications on Fedora.

    I would expect that is the same thing the GUI would do if you use the GUI to select which application you want to autostart. I think it's probably easier in this case for the OP to use the GUI as they don't seem to be too Linux literate yet.
