Any thoughts on Tuta for email and calendar? I wanted to hop on proton but they are associated to the french right and it gave me the ick.

That could be it tbh. I kinda forgot I was dealing with a server on europe, but I haven’t really seen any trusworthy instances in south america and most countries here don’t have well developed privacy laws.

To be honest, Gajim for Desktop and Monocles for android are an extremely accesible combination to present to new people.

I’m trying to move my friends away from corpo platforms but screensharing is proving to be a real bottleneck. AFAIK movim’s client is the only one that supports screensharing but needs a chromium browser to share audio, also I think thw client is overall really ugly and sluggish so I don’t recommend it a lot.

Omarchy is a essentially an Arch setup with Hyprland.

However, if you don’t want frequent and possibly unstable updates, I’d suggest staying away from Arch in it’s entirety and trying Fedora instead. It’s got plenty of OoTB setups to choose from without having to mannualy install and configure them.
