That’s why I think AppImage is the best. Despite needing to pack everything it needs it’s always far more lightweight than flatpak. I’d rather download a 50mb appimage than several gigabytes of an entire OS libraries and then the updates requiring roughly the same size. That and I have a shitty internet
In my experience updates aren’t that big. The flatpak cli ux is just confusing to read how much data actually has to be downloaded because of deduplication.
I have like 4 gigs of flatpak updates I keep unchecking because at my horrible internet speed it would take the entire day if not more to download. Honestly, if you’re right then this is a horrendous design flaw.
TBH I dislike Appimage purely because I can’t be bothered to go and check them all individually for new versions all the time, it feels like being on Windows again. I don’t mind a little bloat for the sake of convenience. But that’s just personal preference of course.

But the page also says partial support for internal storage…
Which version of stat do you have? I get the same blank result locally on ext4 and btrfs filesystems (not over nfs) using stat 8.30 on an rpi4 (raspbian, 5.10.103-v8+).
Seems to work fine with stat 8.32 on xfs on a spot instance I have, running Rocky 9 (5.14.0-362.13.1.el9_3.x86_64).
I thought there might be more info in the changelog: info coreutils aqstat invocationaq but I’m not seeing it.
I’m learning about i3 and xfce on arch (my daily driver). I’m not linux expert, but I’ve been really enjoying figuring things out after switching from ubuntu to arch. This weekend I’m getting the icons for network manager applet and clipman working on the whisker panel, and then removing the i3bar.
Well, at least that’s rhe goal. I don’t have much free time, so tbis will mkst likely be a month project, not a weekend. :P
I’m pretty sure that most people won’t be able to tell the difference between 5 and 6.
Seems like minor changes to me.
I once did enjoy KDE but always hated the font, icons and everything in the UI is lines. Makes it hard to comprehend things quickly.
In the end I realised the Gnome-based UI is far better for legibility and comprehension. I’m on Linux Mint Debian Edition with Cinnamon and it’s great.
I’m on mobile so formatting might not look the best, but here it goes!
X11 scaling - does this link help? wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPISpecifically under either xorg or KDE plasma I think you might be able to find some settings that help
For Wayland - would wdisplays help you out? I’ve had good results using that along with kanshi.
As for system freezing, I’m just taking a shot in the dark but this might be a KDE thing based on a quick search. Wayland is new and sexy, but apparently all the bugs aren’t worked out for KDE. This answer isn’t great, and is very hand-wavey, but without more details outside of you’re on KDE I can’t really help much. Unfortunately for you, I switched over to Sway which apparently has better Wayland support out of the box.
The command prompt to be exact. Which is presumably a version of MS-DOS. Which makes me wonder if you can’t simply boot MS-DOS or FreeDOS — assuming you can find a copy that boots under UEFI. It’s certainly lighter then a whole Windows iso and you can include the firmware with it on a tiny FAT partition.
What is good about NixOS (and GuixOS) is that they apply to package management the same principles that Git applies to managing source code. The Nix store is basically an append-only database (you might even call it a “blockchain”) of inter-dependent packages.
So from an individual computer user’s point of view, it is much safer to install and roll-back software with Nix than with an ordinary package manager that might allow you to accidentally delete package dependencies and break your system. With Nix, you can install packages that actually do break your system, but because of the append-only nature, you can actually roll-back the install automatically right from the Grub boot menu, no need to re-install anything.
Another advantage of NixOS, though this is more from a system operator’s point of view, is that you can guarantee reproducible builds. If the package you have installed has the same hash on all of your computers, that is a simple, human-verifiable proof that all of those systems are running the exact same build of the software. You can probably see that this is very useful for people running servers, like compute clusters, or doing things like A-B testing.
