How are you guys accessing and interacting with this community?

I'm interested in knowing what you guys are using to access this community, whether or not it's via mobile phone or via laptop or desktop.

If accessing via a laptop or a desktop, what is your OS? Windows, MacOS, or Linux? And if Linux, what distro are you using?

If accessing via a mobile device, you can add in some details about the app you are using or if you're using it via a mobile browser.

Of course, you guys can add more details.


Just to provide a bit of a background behind the question: I've had this preconception that the ones here are among the more technologically-inclined (whatever that means), and thus, I'm curious about the make-up of devices and software used to access and interact with this community.


UPDATE:

As promised, here's a link to the compiled data (with some rudimentary stats). I will be adding more onto them this weekend (if more replies come in).

First of all, thank you to all who've responded. While my preconceptions haven't been shattered, I'm also pleasantly surprised to find out non-techies, refugees from Reddit, who have jumped in to the Threadiverse despite it all. I dunno if that's indicative of the dumpster fire that is Reddit right now, or the tenacity of those who've sought refuge here. Maybe both.

I will be expanding on my thoughts, and others, on a separate reply.

    edit: had to blacklist the 940mx gpu bc it burned to a crisp ;w;

    • I think you're the only guy other than me who's using LibreWolf here thus far. I'm just glad I'm not the only one, lol!

      Also, if you don't mind me asking, how did your 940mx gpu ended up being fried?

      • Oh... I think it just got tired of being abused (this laptop has ~7 years of life)

        The GPU itself died last year, after some hardcore 17 fps gaming lmao (I think the last game I played on it was Dinkum)

        • Ahahahahaha!! So it died of old age naman pala. It has lived quite a long (and fulfilling?) life na rin as a GPU, Iā€Œ think.

          I was half-expecting some kind of a, IDK, ill-fated Minecraft expedition to the far lands. Well, Dinkum isn't that far off, lol!
