In this world of enshittification and organizations becoming more and more aggressive, it’s so nice and refreshing to see proton doing the opposite and moving to a better model :)

If your only problem with tkinter are the looks there are some theme extensions that can make it look more modern, like ttk bootstrap
Running mxlinux on an old pc here, and I recommend it heavily. It’s a lightweight system that is also user friendly for people new to linux.
- Started working in my mom’s womb, before they were counting my age.
The washing machine caused some sort of electric failure that damaged a thin client being used as a server
At first, I thought it was some sort of iot washing machine that stopped working due to software error lol.
About spam, theres a recently added app on fdroid called spamblock. Have you tried it?
If it were anyone but MS, I would agree.
Anyone? What about google or meta?
People around here are delusional a lot of times, but to say that windows has too much of a monopoly to lose market, is too much of an exaggeration. Microsoft has been taking unpopular decisions, newer windows versions have been facing more and more resistance, macos has been growing and taking a share of the market, some governments and smaller businesses have been trying linux as a way to cut expenses, linux usability have been improving a lot, android devices have been taking more steps into taking functionalities from desktop systems and improving usability with keyboard and mouse, a lot of computers that do simple processing have been replaced by sbcs, like raspberry pis, etc.
Windows isn’t too big to fail, and it’s not impossible that we’re close to see it starting to fall. Now, on what os would become the bigger player, that’s another story.
Fun fact: My elderly mother uses linux, and without my help. Also, she never used the terminal.
Better LibreOffice/Word compatibility
Was there any recent relevant developments in this area?
It would be awesome if there was a community focused on that
I remember a colleague who had a laptop with a cpu that supported virtualization, but it wasn’t enabled, and there was no option in the uefi to enable it, so he couldn’t run virtualbox. Perhaps libreboot could help getting rid of such arbitrary limitations?
That’s exactly what happens. I get it now
It’s on main fedora, and yes, I go through grub need to input the encryption password twice. I can record it, if it makes things more clear. I’m having a weird difficulty explaining this.
I probably didn’t explain it very well, sorry.
When I update using the gnome software manager, it only downloads the packages and wait for a reboot to install them. When I click the option to reboot ans install, it boots to a software update screen, and when it finishes, it reboots again to the system.
I get it, but I don’t understand why fedora has to reboot 2 times when I update using the gui. What would be the problem with updating before shutting down, and rebooting only once? Fedora reboots, updates, then reboots again.
You’re right, expectations for games have increased a lot. I was just trying to break the black and white thinking that gamers won’t tolerate lower frame rates at all. Hardcore ones really won’t, but casual ones who don’t buy their machines focused on gaming are likely to play something every now and then, with lower expectations ans settings.
This is one thing I would love to actually see some data about, because I have never seen people not using search engines, no matter the age, but I see a lot of people on the internet claiming that younger people don’t use search engines anymore.
Here in brazil, a lot of people play ganes with even less than 30 fps, as long as it works. People just want to have fun and will use what’s available to them.
Puppy linux has 3 versions, based on different distros. Maybe you tried one version back then, and now a different one?
