Way too much for me to care. I admit gnome isn’t perfect but I’ll still argue it’s far more consistent than KDE.

Yep. Ugly, disjointed in appearance, etc. I set up Debian KDE for a family member moving from windows so it fits. I was impressed that KDE came far from what it was but it very much is like a bucket of bolts to me.
Gnome in contrast is very put together. Yes, has some quirks but appearance wise is very curated IMO.

12·2 months agoJust donated some money to them. Haven’t even tested a build yet but I’m excited based on what I’ve seen over the years.
I just use bazzite. Baked in, super easy.
Agree with op- I’ve never used it but man, big picture mode is just amazing. Simple to use and does everything I need.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Why does Arch seem to have a cult like following?English
4·6 months agoSame.
That said, never heard of fedora being a cult at all. Hell I feel it gets far less recognition than it should honestly for being cutting edge and stable.

6·7 months agoGreat write up. Thank you.
It has groups FYI. Set it under your specific connection settings.
I hear ya on RDP. Sadly I still need to use that at times so reminna is good.
Otherwise, I just use tmux. Colleagues use https://midnight-commander.org/ for SCP and stuff of you like. I prefer simple rsync and whatever but they seem to like it. Something to look into.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Is there still no open source alternative to replacing Google Play Services?English
3·8 months agoFuriOS and postmarket etc. Plus sailfish.
Seems to work well. Sadly none are viable for me yet. I think theyre close though.
I think it depends who you ask.
As a linux admin, I don’t mind it and actually really appreciate it. It’s a robust system like you said and though a bit persnickety on resolving things, does its job well.
As a home user, I find that mostly you shouldn’t know it ever exists anyhow. The one time you might would be podman volume issues (when you forget or don’t know to append a z/Z) or when you’re doing something odd. I can see how some would dislike it in that case.
But in any case I fully recommend running it and just learning how to use it. Kind of like IPv6. It’s misunderstood, too often disabled, and should be more widespread. They both are really improvements to what came before. Just technology that takes a little more time to learn is all.
Here is a helpful video explaining it- https://youtu.be/_WOKRaM-HI4
Oh the people who dislike MAC probably do dislike file permissions too, ha.

I’ve learned some Esperanto. Doesn’t mean it’s a great base for naming a project.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Automated installation of multiple applications after a fresh OS install? (Fedora)English
1·1 year agoI distinctly remember yum/dnf should be using a loop. Forget why but it’s recommended. Here’s a snippet from my playbook. Simply make the vars as you need and run.
