penquin,

I honestly can never imagine Linux without KDE plasma. It has its flaws for sure, but at least I can modify the shit out of it to force it to meet my needs 100%.

penquin,

Absolutely. Gnome is becoming gorgeous, but its workflow is not for me. Also, all the missing things that I have to add extensions for is just not ideal. I just re-create the gnome theme in kde when I miss gnome. or just install it in a VM and enjoy for for a little while. Otherwise, kde has always been where I belong.

penquin,

I would use it if it supported 4k better. Every time I set the resolution to 4k and the scaling to 2x, the whole UI gets jacked up and something can’t be clicked anymore. Window bars stay really small. The panel gets all messed up. That’s basically on every single distribution I’ve tried with xfce

penquin,

Nice

penquin,

Just your regular 27" 4k monitor. If I set it to 200%, everything is fine, but things are huge. I have to have it on 175%, and that makes the font very blurry. Also, any window decorations that are not default plasma get blurry, too. I’ve already posted about it in the kde instance and zamunda (a KDE dev) said it was fixed in plasma 6. So, I guess I’ll just wait it out.

penquin,

I just want kde on Wayland not to have blury font with fractional scaling. It’s just unusable. Once that’s fixed, I’m all set to use it as my daily driver.

penquin,

Oh trust me, I do log out then log in, it just doesn’t work. I’ll try again to double check.

penquin,

If you didn’t change it willingly, you’ll be forced to change it when you have kids. I know for a fact that I’m not the person I was 10 years ago. Not even close.

penquin,

I love how gnome apps look so neat and simple. Never knew about this one. Thank you.

penquin,

I’ve discovered a new browser to use as a secondary one to Firefox in case I needed a chromium based one. Thorium. This thing is insanely fast. Brave what?

What's the difference between package manager and why are there so many?

Are they so different that it’s justified to have so many different distributions? So far I guess that different package manager are the reason that divides the linux community. One may be on KDE and one on GNOME but they can use each other’s packages but usually you are bound to one manager

penquin,

I actually did install it. I hate to judge it in a virtual machine, but I’ve noticed a small difference. It’s still slow, but not as slow as the other one. Fun fact, the only reason why I don’t use fedora is that I hate their installer. I have 3 drives on my PC, and I’m so scared that I’d mess things up and lose my photos/videos/games etc 😂 The installer is so confusing. I remember figuring it out once then just forgot it again.

penquin,

Imagine having only one option, and that option is dnf. I’m out. I don’t want Linux anymore.

penquin,

Not sure. I have fedora 38 in a VM and it’s still very slow.

penquin,

Not much really. It is great, but slow as shit and makes me want to toss my computer across the room. I just want to install one tiny 5 kb package, I don’t want you to take 10 minutes checking all the RPM fusions repos and go to the moon and back then install my package. No, just install the damn thing. I’ll ask you when I need you to check that long list of repos. 😂

penquin,

Ok then, I’ll search it up and install it.

penquin,

Same here, that’s why I have 3 different drives in my PC, 512GB nvme ssd for root, 1TB SATA SSD for home, and 2 TB SATA SSD just for games/emulation and steam

penquin,

Y’all think this will get to the US as easy? I think it’ll be fought tooth an nail by corporates and their pet politicians.

penquin,

That’s where the AUR comes in. Some neckbeard somewhere has already made an AUR package of that.

penquin,

Nate looks like my older brother. Like an almost carbon copy 😳

penquin,

Lol. They’re so close it’s creepy.

penquin,

Add end to end encryption to the mix. They’ve been doing so well until they messed with that.
