Appimages are ok, bloated but ok. Unless a library inside is old and won’t work.

Flatpak is annoying and I don’t like it at all, so I don’t use it. Easy solution.

Fuck snap though.

So less functionality is better?

Linux is getting enshittified.

Some people don’t like the moderation and they’re loud about it. 🤷

Someone’s going to bitch no matter which one you choose, I’d say pick one that is established and seems like it’s solid and also not defederated from everyone else.

Weebl and Bob found work, good for them.

Surprised? IE/Edge. Like, why?

Do other VMs work right?

Don’t overcomplicate things.

Doesn’t zram compress what’s in memory so systems with less ram can work a little better? If you’ve got enough for a ramdisk you don’t need zram.

If you have enough ram you could make /var/tmp a ramdisk, every reboot will clear it then.

Feeling personally attacked here… I’m coincidentally trying to get ipv6 remote to my machine working right but I don’t know what I’m doing so while everything is working by itself anything I try fails… 💀

(I don’t need help, it’s better if I learn it the hard way)

I did it for an old K6-2, optimizing everything possible. It was fun.

Here’s the script I use to start and stop Waydroid:

#!/bin/bash
PID=$(pgrep "weston")
if [ "$?" -eq "0" ]; then
    waydroid session stop
    kill $PID
    exit
fi
weston --width=1920 --height=1080 --socket=wayland-1 &>/dev/null &
sleep 2
WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1 XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland waydroid show-full-ui

Change the resolution to whatever you need it to be. Run it once to start, again to stop. It just lives on my desktop.

I have waydroid working great in the latest Mint. You need Weston so Waydroid has a Wayland to connect to.

e: or use the experimental Wayland in 21.3 but it’s not ready for daily driving

Are you trying to tell me creality is the only one who would ever embed a library in an appimage? Isn’t that supposed to be half the point, that it comes with what it needs?
