This works out of the box on KDE (should work on GNOME too), what desktop environment do you use?

I just installed a fresh Debian 12 VM and it looks like this on the login screen:
However, I don’t have an Nvidia GPU, so maybe their drivers disable Wayland?
There is something in the Debian wiki for Wayland on Nvidia: https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers#Wayland
Your entire session has to run in Wayland, you can’t only run Firefox in Wayland.
Can you run
echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPEin your terminal? Does it say x11 or wayland?
As of version 121, Firefox defaults to Wayland if your session is running Wayland.
Might want to try in a fresh profile since you made config changes.
It’s really snappy for me behind a Traefik reverse proxy (with HTTP/3) but I got it running on a beefy machine so I’m not sure how heavy it is.
That makes sense. Didn’t even know Valheim had a screenshot feature.
For Steam it is F12, for the OS it is just Print Screen.
I recommend the latter since you can also do a partial screenshot, draw on it and it gets saved in your Pictures folder automatically.
Nextcloud can embed Collabora Code (essentially Libreoffice) so you can open all your documents in Nextcloud in the browser and edit them together with multiple people.

Works pretty well.
What about it sucks?
I self-host Collabora Code in Nextcloud and think it’s excellent.
Does Hyprland work well for gaming compared to KDE? Can it do HDR, VRR and so on?
Always wanted to try a tiling WM but was afraid of losing features.
Do you think Aurora is a good choice for beginners? A friend of mine wants to switch and I’m still looking for a good match.
It should be immutable, use KDE, have Nvidia drivers pre-installed (or a easy UI for installing them), not be maintained by a single maintainer and should not have non-OS applications like Steam pre-installed.
Aurora so far seems to be the best choice.
Maybe an e-book reader like KOReader? https://flathub.org/apps/rocks.koreader.KOReader
Plenty of them support local HTML.
There must be something about GNOME in particular that some people love, and others hate.
GNOME is heavily opinionated.
As such it gets praise from people that share that opinion and gets hate from the people that do not. Many other DEs are much more configurable, giving a broader audience the possibility to adjust everything to their liking.
(grateful for flatpaks for once!)
That’s how I run my system right now. Fedora KDE + pretty much everything as Flatpak.
Gives me a recent enough kernel and KDE version so I don’t have to worry when I get new hardware or new features drop but also restricts major updates to new Fedora versions so I can hold those back for a few weeks.
I made a similar switch as you but from Ubuntu to Fedora because of outdated firmware and kernel.
You can install repacks pretty seamlessly in Bottles.

Create a gaming prefix, move all installers into the prefix and hit “Run executable” one by one for each installer.
Although if you can afford it, Baldur’s Gate 3 devs deserve the money. Great game and available DRM free on GOG and Steam.
You don’t have to use the terminal, if you installed regular Fedora with GNOME, you can just search for “Sound” and it should come up with this:
If you installed Fedora KDE you can search for “Sound” as well and it should look like this:
Do the audio settings show your onboard audio device?
Did you manage to install Linux to your second drive?
Do you mean your Windows boot partition?
Windows does not support installing the boot partition on a different drive out of the box. Unless you modified your Windows installation, the drive where Windows is installed is also where the Windows boot manager lives.
The biggest risk with installing with the drive connected is accidentally installing the Linux boot partition over the Windows boot partition, hence the usual recommendation to disconnect the drive just to be safe.
You’re gonna have to provide some more details on your setup and what is working/not working though.
Why not run the image registry on the Raspberry Pi itself? Then you can do your builds on your regular machine and push them to your Raspberry Pi when done.
