Unrelated but is your thing mendicant bias?

Math Riddles also not so bad
3·13 days agoI’ve been lucky enough to dumb guy my fedora install since 28, and it’s been pretty decent to me. Granted I’m not using nvidia graphics, and I feel like that could throw a big spanner in the works for regular users. It’s a big enough leap getting into the mindset of installing software from Distro repos rather than directly from the vendor.
I hope the newer nv open kernel modules don’t stay out of tree. Also hope that NVK will give users the ability to just plug and play with mesa drivers in the future.
waiting to see it ported to the HTC hd2

Yikes I wasn’t aware of the second part
I was about to ask, isn’t this guy a prolific dickhead?
tier listing distros is such a Linux community thing to do. Wish we’d get past it.

I don’t know a great deal about this software, or if this has changed recently, but it does look as though Linux support is on their roadmap for 2024
E: I misread, I don’t think Linux is on the table for 2024. It seems to be on their long term roadmap at least.
Glad you got it sorted. The flatpak version for me suggests it’s no longer maintained so I switched to the RPM as well fairly recently
Hadn’t heard of vesktop. Thank you for the tip.
I’ve heard good things about the bananapi bpi r3. Been meaning to get one myself, and you can find them in kits with cases, antenna, power supply etc for maybe just under 100.
The R4 is around the corner and has the option to support WiFi 7 via expansion module. I think it’s still awaiting upstream support for openwrt, however. If you don’t need WiFi 7, the R3 is a solid platform.
Headline is kind of bait but the testing and info in the video is still worth the watch imo
True, they work regardless. DTP keeps a consistent look across my desktops, and I agree that having to install third party extensions is perhaps not ideal to reach that, but I was catering to a specific use case. I didn’t mean to suggest that I dont find stock gnome to be a perfectly servicable DE.
In any case, the overview at login is still obstructive for my workflow, and I’ve resorted to disabling that with yet another extension.
I did try plasma 5.27 and 6 (fedora 40 rawhide) very recently. Can appreciate all the functionality it offers but maybe it goes a but too far. I found it sort of busy, the config menus were disorienting, and I found myself tweaking that ootb experience more than with gnome.
Hey, valid question. In my case, I still have to use Windows for work, so I like to keep a uniform workflow (with dash to panel on linux).
I launch my regular apps with super keys and numbers (also have a shared terminal shortcut since I use conemu/cmder on windows), and the overview will block that until I hit super or escape (or at least did with gnome 40).
This scenario represented many of the responders in that thread. You could argue that this only really affects a subset of users who behave in such a way (keyboard centric with pinned shortcuts), and that gnome are working towards a more ‘one size fits all’ approach with overview at login, but this sort of behaviour is not seen on any other desktop environment, including Windows and Mac.
It’s prompting that you must do something as soon as you log in, which I feel is jarring.
I wouldn’t say I’m offended at the change, more that I’m disappointed in the gnome team’s refusal to discuss the matter with their own end users. They were adamant about the change and shut down any prospect of a toggle for it.
With that said, Florian had kindly helped one of the members create a shell extension to disable it.
Worth noting from the original article
