Well maybe dont use buggy firmware then?
#coreboot #heads #dasharo
Ubuntu is not following mainstream anymore, which is a bad thing. They are the only ones pushing snaps, while every other distro prefers Flatpaks. Their store is closed off and problematic, and the sandboxing only works on distros using AppArmor.
So they are pushing basically new Ubuntu repos, and just dont stop.
Also they theme GNOME apps like hell, have a strange appstore nobody needs (GNOME Software can handle packagekit, flatpak and snaps).
They ALSO now highly push Flutter instead of GTK for whatever reason, which brings inconsistencies, and flutter is nearly abandoned by Google.
Really nice that he used Victorias graphic
Many apps are cross platform so switch apps first.
Then get a secondary SSD with an enclosure and use that. Get a big one so you can also use it for backups. Test the distro there for a while.
And… dont use Ubuntu.
You can already try it, all these people just waiting XD it is VERY new so you need to test it and report bugs. There may be basic things for your use case missing.
Really nice, need to test on my Thinkpad T430 once it has Heads Coreboot flashed
What about just, written in Rust?
That is already used in many projects.
It also seems to poke a hole in all Flatpak apps, giving them access to GTK3 themes.
Thanks, maybe it is not even possible? Should ask GNOME devs…
So they gonna give me an NVIDIA card if I use Wayland? Nice!
Yes but there should really be a menu where the autostart apps are. KDE Plasma has one.
They are in ~/.config/autostart
Ironically on Windows apps can autostart without being in the specific folder.
Probably the same:
Openbox could do most things that Kwin could
And that was back when both used XOrg to do the heavy lifting.
Wayfire is used in a lot of minimal desktops. Raspberry PiOS uses it for their new Wayland desktop.
Okay true, a systemd service would also work.
Having it as a user service in ~/.config/systemd/user/
would also work without privileges (as that is one part of Atomic OSses)
Interesting idea! But if servers block me after sending x mails to nonexistent inboxes, this doesnt help.
Poorly yes, but its FOSS, anyone can fork it
Haha no not really.
I look forward to pure Rust COSMIC, which works pretty well. But they need to do so much ground work, and their UX (overview, app menu, …) is in parts pretty ugly.
I wonder what the best alternative to KWin is. Wayfire? Labwc?
Very smart. Learned something.
Many many company mains are standard, which is interesting as they will get tons of spam.
But makes sense that this is not a good way, that the tools for scanning for available addresses are blocked and that there are even honeypots.
you could keep an eye out for LXQt.
I did. Looked at the desktop and it looks horrendous. pcmanfm-qt is the only usable app (and I find it second best filemanager after dolphin).
Their packages are supposedly very outdated on Fedora, which I didnt verify. And using Ubuntu base is a nogo for irrational reasons.
On Fedora they still rely on tons of Qt5 just like Plasma, which I find unacceptable.
Also I never used a Desktop where compositor settings are simply unsupported. It may run, but you still need config files, and I wonder why use settings then.
I really dont need so switch, KDE is awesome. It is not a pain anymore since plasma 6, Fedora Kinoite is very well maintained, Flatpaks work well, it has the best app support of all, legacy support, theming, cursors.
Its literally just for the curiosity.
I have a spare SSD where I try COSMIC too. Its tiling is usable thanks to some random dude that joined Fedora and created a SIG 2 months or so after that and now packages all the apps (He added drag to tile support). Thanks btw.
But it looks pretty ugly, it mimics the useless GNOME top bar, the app menu is kinda bad, so you would need to write at least 2 applets and replace the preinstalled ones.
Not a dealbreaker, and it works really good.
Damn, thanks for the info.
Definetly not wanting to land on a spam list…
So I will test the mails with burner accounts? Which would be a bit sus, but I could just write “DO YOU WANT TO STRENGTHEN YOUR ERECTION” and that would end in spam anyways
Very true, but there are some packages not available. And Appimages have partial updates now, and dont need huge libraries but just the stuff they need.
