title: strypey: @mala I've been using #Mate since it replaced #GNOME Fallback as the default desktop for #Trisquel. I'm very happy with it, even on a 10 year old 32-bit netbook bought with XP on it. I shudder to think what it would be like trying to run a newer Windows OS on it. Without desktop GNU/Linux, I'd probably have to buy a newer 2nd hand laptop every couple of years to have a useable PC.

title: strypey: @Scarabeater @frickhaditcoming if you like #KDE, #Cinnamon might be more your speed. #Mate is intended more for older or less powerful hardware, or people who want to use a minimal DE and save their processing power for the apps they run on it. Both are forks (?) of #GNOME 2 which were started by the #Mint distro when GNOME 3 came out, and massively increased the resource footprint of GNOME (mostly for Ubuntu's benefit).

title: strypey: @alcinnz AppStream? Good question, no idea. Trisquel is based off #Ubuntu, and has everything Ubuntu has minus the non-free stuff, and with #Mate instead of #Unity/ #GNOME. I'm still using Trisquel 7, which was based off 14.04, but most folks are already on 8, based off 16.04. The devs are now working on 8, which will be based off 18.04, so that would be the release to target for possible inclusion (at least in the repo).

After, yes, it booted up fine... Except ~/.config/MATE/stickynotes-applet.xml has been wiped clean, without my recent compy notes! Any ideas how and where to restore that file? It's never done this before. Thanks heaps.

The maintainers have fixed lightdm; now, it talks when #orca #screenreader is toggled with 'alt+mod4+s'. I find the Software Boutique utility completely inaccessible. Using #apt is fine, but I wanted to check. For gui browsing of the collection, there's always synaptic, which does not come with the distro, but can be installed.
