The head tail goes hard

I've found that is shifting a bit as a lot of newer hardware needs kernel support, and as new people with newer devices enter the linux world they can encounter issues. I know I've had to wait for feature to make it to the kernel before I got it for some newer hardware. It can be frustating especially if it's something essential or realky desirable. Even more so if you aren't tech savvy.

Wrong? Is this about me using the word wrongness? In retrospect it was poor word choice but I did not mean to offend. I just meant that the situation is more complicated than what OP may have initially thought. You know what this explains the downvotes.

Honestly Bazzite does great with pretty much everything I've had it do. Some things were difficult in the beginning (I've been on it since nearly the beginnimg), but these days everything just works. It's really matured. I'd also like to make an honorable mention for VanillaOS which would be my second pick for general stuff and my number one for development and sysadmin.

Distro choice really shouldn't matter but unfortunately not all systems are created equal. There's tradeoffs to everything. What you get by having the latest features you sacrifice in compatibility with older hardware. The stability benefits you get from waiting update packages may cause you to miss out on needed performances improvements or bug fixes. Tradeoffs to everything. Immutable distros handle most of those problems fairly elegantly, but lose out somewhat when it comes to ease of package installation.

I hope in the future you get to have a perfect experience friend.

This comment is tough because in its wrongness, it reveals a greater problem with Linux gaming. I think you’re right that it’s probably not ready outside of SteamOS. But it’s not correct to say it’s not ready in general. They are several distros that have all the latest features for modern gaming, the issue is you weren’t recommended even one of them. Pop_OS is currently outdated since they are working on their new desktop and mint is on the Ubuntu LTS version meaning they are both significantly behind. The community needs to take that into account when recommending things. That’s the reason I only recommend Bazzite. Cause it’s the closest to a SteamOS experience.

I'm ngl after reading that I somewhat understand the concept, but the specifics are completely lost on me. They spent that whole interview talking about problems with colonialism (which is important don't get me wrong), but very little time on the actual topic. I still don't really know what indigenous geography actually is. The way he describes feels more like a mindset thing to encourage mindful behavior than like an actual field of study. Maybe I just need more context.

You can get it back with mods thankfully.

I remember reading a blog post (I think from them) that said they didn't mind a KDE version. The one caveat is that it had to be as feature complete and polished as the GNOME version with a full suite of modern QT/KDE apps to replace the GTK ones. Considering the core team are pretty much all GTK devs (some with their own apps) it seems pretty unlikely unless a community team that really likes KDE and the vanillaos concept forms.

Tbf though the results speak for themselves though, GNOME has definitely been thriving under her though much of that is also do to the effort of others. She did put in a lot of work and no one inside GNOME complained so I assume it was a good deal. Also the page you linked shows she's been working in executive positions in non profits for a while so definitely qualified.

What a lovely answer, made my day fr

 

Does anyone know if Ubuntu Touch supports flatpaks? I’ve been following the project and think what they’re doing is super cool for mobile Linux. I’ve even been thinking about installing it on one of my devices just to try it out at some point.

One problem though. Does it support flatpak? If not, that might be a deal breaker. All the best mobile friendly apps are easily available through flathub. It’s also my preferred way to get them since snap is not as good and natives packages are bound to be outdated given Ubuntu Touch’s current version.

 

I used to downvote fairly often on Reddit as a sign to disagree or to push down really disgusting bigoted comments. And to be honest, it became a habit to just downvote without replying. However, now that I’m on lemmy and not Reddit I’ve been actively trying to not instantly downvote things and instead move on or take the time to reply. Has anyone else been trying to do this?
