There isn’t even a real photoshop competitor in the broader market, but you want to further split the hobbyist devs effort on linux as well?
I think instead it would be better to focus all the effort on a single solution that strives to cover all of photoshops features, with at least equal or better usability. Like has been done with Blender and godot for example. (And GIMP is sadly faaar from it still)
Krita is really good for digital drawing and painting, but photoshop does cover a lot of other things, which krita can not do. In that sense Krita is more of a Corel PaintShop Pro alternative. While GIMP is the best, but still very bad, alternative to photoshop.
I am pretty sure it would run in the same wine setup, but nobody bothered to set it up as an install script yet, so you’d need to do some manual dirtywork.
On linux you could easily do it, by running a script every n minutes that takes a screenshot and pipes it to an ai and then stores it wherever you want (including a local NAS)
With some extra effort you could tie it into the DE/WM and take a screenshot when a new app is opened or on focus switch or virtual desktop change or whatever and then slow down the periodic ones - so you don’t end up making 3000 screenshots of the same long gaming session. Or just constantly log the currently running processes as well to give the ai additional context.
There are so many cool opportunities with this. I hope somebody makes something cool and useful with it for Linux, that runs completely locally. You could then ask your computer “Hey, what video did I watch about godot a week ago, it had something with tilesets in it and I was coding alongside it”. Or "how many hours have I been working on that project for in the last 2 weeks?’
It seems like the more interested I get in Linux, the less appealing it becomes. The community seems to have no fucking clue what they’re talking about, because everyone is just constantly talking over each other and contradicting themselves!

Current situation: I’ve got a desktop with 16 GB of DDR4 RAM, a 1st gen Ryzen CPU from 2017, and an AMD RX 6800 XT GPU with 16 GB VRAM. I can 7 - 13b models extremely quickly using ollama with ROCm (19+ tokens/sec). I can run Beyonder 4x7b Q6 at around 3 tokens/second....
I don’t know how important the CPU is for those workloads tbh. but I feel like not as important so maybe you’re fine leaving it as it is.
I think AMD wanted to release a new GPU lineup (radeon 8000 series) sometime this year/early next year. Maybe just wait for that, sell your old card on the used market and buy a new one?

For 50$ you get a huge iso with “everything” preinstalled and they use the money to work on that and make sure it works on lots of devices and that all the software works together.

I can understand why all the other things would be listed here, and I would understand if sexuality in general was considered inappropriate for children, but why homosexuality in particular? This is strange to me....
Homosexuality is documented in about 10% of species across the animal kingdom. The percentage of homosexuality in a given animal species varies a lot from 0% to above 30% of the population and factors like overpopulation increase it.
Package has different security-issues and is not oriented on the way of technical emancipation as Hyperbola is trying to adapt lightweight implementations.
It sounds like something chatGPT would hallucinate.
There is archinstall now, which is pretty easy to use and usually just works. I recently used it again and it took me about an hour from start to fully installed, running arch with all the packages I need.
If you try again, make sure to use btrfs filesystem and set up snapper and bootable snapshots. That way you can always recover from a fuckup in a minute.
