beta_tester, in Fedora 39 Released with GNOME 45, Linux 6.5 + More

Everything in that article is GNOME related. Nothing is fedora 39 or linux 6.5 related

The real hero here is the 75 line shell script, generating the very cool SVG image from a CSV file.

I want to like KDE but its still way to unstable for me on Fedora. Its probably just a matter of time before its stable enough for daily usage

jsh,

Nvidia?

No

doppelgangmember, (edited ) in Linux holds more than 8% market share in India, and it's on the upward trend

But how do we profit off of this ???

edit: lol sad you all cannot tell this was a joke -_-

OsrsNeedsF2P,

We profit through worldwide prosperity

dutchkimble,

First, you set up a company, doesn’t matter the name. Hire the bare minimum number of employees maybe one to handle accounting, and one sales person to start. Make sure you pay them either minimum wage or slightly under, with a false promise of introducing a profit sharing mechanism soon to keep them motivated. Then, the magic starts. You handle key clients yourself and make your sales target various demographies - sell this graphic for 1 bison dollar per jpeg. The trick is to sell the first million within 3 months. Show these sales to banks or investors and ask them for a further 500 million to expand and scale up your sales. Then, you vanish to an unknown island in the Pacific. Easy money.

doppelgangmember,

Thanks brb :)

Shalade, in We are nearing the halfway mark on our Plasma 6 drive to get 500 supporting Members! Will you push us over that line?

Done, love KDE, I hope 6 kicks ass too!

This is a great release, GNOME 45 is looking really nice.

This is a great release

As KDE F38 user, this is a super boring release. Nothing noteworthy for us to look forward to except LibreOffice 7.6 - which you can get via Flatpak anyways. I was hoping the new DNF 5 would make the cut, but guess it’s still not ready yet. :(

Guess will have to hold out my excitement until F40 for Plasma 6 and DNF 5 (hopefully).

Sentau, (edited )

I thought dnf 5 wont come with fedora 40 because that coincides with the next RHEL release so they want both of them to ship the stable and tested dnf version.

edit - FedoraProject confirming that F41 is the target for dnf5

anothermember, in Who uses pure GNOME (no extensions)

I do, I don’t even have Tweaks installed.

I used to be an avid customiser of software, but one day I realised that I spent a lot of time tweaking things and didn’t get a great workflow anyway.

The thing about GNOME is it has a great in-built workflow and I work more efficiently now I just let it make the decisions for me.

I also kind of think that if you’re the type to install a lot of extensions you’d probably be happier with KDE anyway.

There are even light and dark wallpapers with transparent version to build your own!

vhalragnarok, in I made it to Linux! What is your must-have FOSS or Free Software for linux?

For me it’s (outside of the usual stack):

github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper (Input-Remapper, if you have annoying proprietary thing you want to re-bind this is an amazing way to handle that)

This project made Linux viable for me, and I have not looked back at all.

Now I understand why some people in the comments from other platform said “Fedora is the new Ubuntu”; in popular perspective today! Loud applause to the Fedora Dev team! Respect.

Vorthas, in Your chosen desktop Linux defaults?
@Vorthas@lemmy.ml avatar

EndeavourOS as the distro of choice for easy installation and AUR access.

Depending on the DE, if it’s not MATE, I almost always install Caja, Engrampa, and MATE Calculator since they just have the most sane look and UX to them for my use cases.

  • Waterfox as my browser of choice (reason over Firefox is that it offers tabs below address bar as an option in Preferences rather than mucking about in userChrome.css files that often break on updates)
  • Vivaldi as a secondary browser for websites that only render right in Chromium
  • Kitty as my terminal of choice.
  • Clementine as my music player of choice
  • yt-dlp for downloading Youtube videos as mp3s
  • htop over top, also have gotop for a more graphical look
  • exa over ls
wolf,

Interesting browser choices. ;-) I like what I see from Vivaldi, but I rarely need Chrome compatibility and Chromium is in the repositories of all distributions I use, so I never opt for Vivaldi. Just a personal preference or any good reason to use Vivaldi over Chromium etc.?

Vorthas,
@Vorthas@lemmy.ml avatar

Honestly because it’s quite customizable, that’s about it. Being able to customize my software to look and work the way I want them to is a big reason why I use certain programs over others.

drwho, in systemd 255-rc1 Brings "Blue Screen of Death" Support and New Tool To Spawn VMs

What the actual fuck?

guillermohs9,

My thought exactly.

shapis, in Who uses pure GNOME (no extensions)
@shapis@lemmy.ml avatar

I tried really hard for about a year to use gnome without extensions.

I’d say at best in the end it wasn’t annoying me too much.

Recently tried dash to panel again and yeah. I’m not going back.

I do not understand how people manage multiple programs open without a tray. Do they just memorize in what workspace everything is at all times ?

@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

I found it preferable when I started exclusively using the keyboard and keybinds. Tho I ended up using a TWM so I’m definitely not the target audience lol.
