joojmachine,

It is saying that more than one million people are actively using Flathub. What do you mean by force?

joojmachine,

There are no cases of this that I know of. There are some developers that don’t encourage repackaging their apps, though.

joojmachine,

You can just download the app from Flathub right now and it should hopefully make its way directly into GNOME in the future. At least some work was being done to implement this directly into it.

joojmachine,

It seems stable enough already TBH, at least from my small testing with the app. It’s more about getting things ready to be exposed in the settings app and in the system.

joojmachine,

Also, highly recommend checking out Universal Blue’s Surface images! It’s pretty much everything you need out of the box! universal-blue.org/images/surface/?h=surface

joojmachine,

I haven’t tried the Surface images due to not having one, but I am using their Silverblue images to make the whole NVIDIA drivers thing a bit easier on my system.

Also I haven’t needed to backup my system in over a year now (I stopped hopping with Silverblue) so I don’t remember the solution I used, but this seems good.

joojmachine,

Stick with Fedora, but give a shot to the Atomic variants (Silverblue, Kinoite, etc.) You can always switch DEs back and forth with one command. Even if you don’t stay with Fedora, it will help a lot for you to find the desktop environment that fits your workflow best (although I do recommend sticking with Fedora)

joojmachine,

I’m all in for performance improvements, hope to see this reach Proton ASAP

Weekly Updates from Fedora's Marketer ‒ Week 1 (ko-fi.com)

Hey guys, I’ve finally started exploring talking about the work I’m doing with the Fedora Project as part of the marketing team and now as part of the design and magazine teams too! I really enjoy the “This Week in” style of weekly reports on all the work that is being done, so I’m looking forwards to sharing it like...

(Constructively) What is your least favorite distro & why?

I’ve been distrohopping for a while now, and eventually I landed on Arch. Part of the reason I have stuck with it is I think I had a balanced introduction, since I was exposed to both praise and criticism. We often discuss our favorite distros, but I think it’s equally important to talk about the ones that didn’t quite hit...

joojmachine, (edited )

I don’t hate them, but this hits hard. They are THE most influential distro for people outside of the community. They have by far the biggest user base and community, but instead of using this to collaborate with other distributions and specially with the freedesktop folks for the improvement of the commons, they have this culture of downstream work that rarely get the effort needed to be upstreamed. It’s usually “it’s good enough for us, so that’s where we’ll leave it”, and they end up with these weird solutions that only they use.

joojmachine,

joojmachine,

I know, I’m on the Flatpak side, just appreciate the intention behind snaps (although I quite frankly hate the execution).

joojmachine,

This is more than enough of an answer for the people that went “wHy BoThEr?” when this project started.

All of this great work, all of it upstreamed and a big part of it will (hopefully) influence even x86_64 machines if distros, communities and companies start supporting them. speakersafetyd sounds like a godsend for all laptop speakers, the pipewire energy-efficiency work sounds lovely for all laptops, specially more recent Intel ones, with P and E cores.
