[00:12] is there a skype or teams alternative for lubuntu? [00:13] [telegram] Nothing specifically made for Lubuntu, no. Skype and Teams should both work however. [00:13] anything that can be found in package manager [00:16] [telegram] Skype and Teams are both available as Snaps or Flatpaks I think. An opensource option might be Jami. I have no idea how well it works. (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) anything that can be found in package manager) [00:16] [telegram] Teams can also be installed as a .deb Microsoft has instructions for it. [00:17] hmm, what are the telegram packages in the installer? [00:18] [telegram] In the installer? [00:18] package manager [00:18] [telegram] Telegram is in the repository.

[00:24] thanks, worked === genii-core is now known as genii === kiska35 is now known as kiska3 [21:44] what is lubuntu.net and why is it the 1st result on google? [21:44] i might fall for it were it not in the ublock badware list [21:46] not sure what it was probably a fan created page [21:47] this is the official site: https://lubuntu.me/ [21:48] a fan or ... malware [21:48] im getting lubuntu for this 4GB ram laptop for a friend's kid to learn python [21:49] its an old laptop but it's damn immaculate, looks brand new, should be pretty fun with lubuntu on it [22:07] auctus, Lubuntu didn't own a web site before lubuntu.me was created; the owner of lubuntu.net was at that time involved with the project and let the team use it.. When the owner left, the access to the web site left too (leading to creation of lubuntu.me). It was never official but was used by the Lubuntu project for a number of years (ceasing prior to 18.04 I think or around that time) [22:08] fyi: lubuntu.me is owned by Canonical, whom now own all flavor web sites so issues like lubuntu.net will not occur again.. Canonical own the site address; but Lubuntu control all detail on it === daniel is now known as Guest5101 === genii is now known as genii-core
