why is this piracy? IS this something you traditionally need to pay for?

Hope to see this on as many devices as possible so we finally get usable JXL support when using https://github.com/IacobIonut01/Gallery

how does distrobox/podman stuff work? Isn’t this mostly just shell auto complete and making sure the typical escape sequences work?

interesting, I thought I had to download and setup myself, ill look into this then

when does apple turn around and just stop selling in the EU?

It would be nice if torrent clients included I2P support by default without the need for auxiliary tools. that being said, I don’t really know enough about i2p to understand the actual privacy benefits of it or viability of something like this

Waiting for stract to get the support it needs

actively hostile is putting it nicely, imagine being a paid supporter of bottles, you wake up, update, and find out the app you used to effectively use most of your important apps has no intentionally bricked itself and you need to either download install and setup flatpak, which breaks a good chunk of your apps by default do to the sandboxing, and now you need to spend hours trying to figure that out, or roll back.

I 100% support suse’s decisions.

They take donations, that’s not free.

based suse, I hate updating software and effectively bricking it, I don’t support that shit at all

I disagree that this is the same on windows, I think for the vast majority of users, windows is less buggy. At the very least, it’s a lot more streamlined and when you do find an issue, the info you find is far more likely to be 1:1 on how to apply said info.

I would argue that most people don’t want to tweak graphics or install plugins. Drivers are easy, you download a thing from a website, double click it, reboot and it’s there. On linux you need to hope there is a dkms and hope the driver hasn’t been removed from kernel. Windows is a far more streamlined and easier experience for the vast majority of issue. The problem with windows is it’s increasingly fragile nature where some users simply can’t get a working install. My mother does not like using linux, I constantly need to fix bugs for her, or install some weird app she needs for crocheting in wine.

I have had her try so many distros, Nobara, Ubuntu, Fedora, preinstalled arch, mint zorin etc. Not a single one of them after months of her using them have been remotely comparable in user experience then windows has for her. The only reason she doesn’t use windows is because whenever we install the driver for her CNC cutter (which is absolutely required for her) it bricks her system.

I have supported companies, libraries, and individuals and this is a consistent experience regardless of linux distro (barring chromeOS, they do some good work there) across literally hundreds of users that eventually get funneled down to me.

It’s not that linux is getting so much better that is causing people to swap, its that linux is getting so much worse.

This is why I have high hopes for cosmic/popOS, They do seem to be trying to focus on making sure issues like these do get solved. I am not ready to move my mom to it yet, but soon…

Honestly, YES. Almost every linux user I have come across has been like “Linux has been the best and most stable experience I have ever had” and then turn around and debug some obscure issue without batting an eye.

I do believe that most people are just so desensitized to “generic issues” that they don’t even bat an eye anymore and straight up don’t see them as issues.

I do believe linux is an extremely buggy experience regardless of what DE or distro you use. It just so happens that said bugs are often really easy to deal with if you have experience.

they had some genuinely great talents but literally everyone seems to have hated it, and they had what, 2 active streamers?

no idea how this community takes to discussing PLs, but in general, as far as I can tell, all of the the ex talents have gone out to greener pastures successfully. The only good thing they did was springboard talents.

how the hell did they last this long

gnome iirc also has merged the wip protocol so it should work on gnome too

what have you used? If you set, say DCI-P3 (not display p3 which uses a similar transfer to 2.2) the issues become evident due to the different transfers that it is quite off.

if you used something like display p3, then due to the similar transfer, only gamut changes which is a lot harder to notice at a glance

I still wish we had display calibrators that operated over DDC on linux T.T well, ddcui helps, but it’s not automagic T.T

uh, kinda not really? I mean, you can calibrate your screen to sRGB, if you calibrate it to anything else, every non managed app will completely and utterly break

Gobo Linux has to have been the distro I was looking forward to most too. I really hope it picks up because it’s design philosophies. Absolutely phenomenal.
