joojmachine,

It is saying that more than one million people are actively using Flathub. What do you mean by force?

joojmachine,

You can just download the app from Flathub right now and it should hopefully make its way directly into GNOME in the future. At least some work was being done to implement this directly into it.

joojmachine,

It seems stable enough already TBH, at least from my small testing with the app. It’s more about getting things ready to be exposed in the settings app and in the system.

joojmachine,

Also, highly recommend checking out Universal Blue’s Surface images! It’s pretty much everything you need out of the box! universal-blue.org/images/surface/?h=surface

joojmachine,

I haven’t tried the Surface images due to not having one, but I am using their Silverblue images to make the whole NVIDIA drivers thing a bit easier on my system.

Also I haven’t needed to backup my system in over a year now (I stopped hopping with Silverblue) so I don’t remember the solution I used, but this seems good.

joojmachine,

Stick with Fedora, but give a shot to the Atomic variants (Silverblue, Kinoite, etc.) You can always switch DEs back and forth with one command. Even if you don’t stay with Fedora, it will help a lot for you to find the desktop environment that fits your workflow best (although I do recommend sticking with Fedora)

joojmachine,

I’m all in for performance improvements, hope to see this reach Proton ASAP

joojmachine,

I was in a very famous TV show…

(Constructively) What is your least favorite distro & why?

I’ve been distrohopping for a while now, and eventually I landed on Arch. Part of the reason I have stuck with it is I think I had a balanced introduction, since I was exposed to both praise and criticism. We often discuss our favorite distros, but I think it’s equally important to talk about the ones that didn’t quite hit...

joojmachine, (edited )

I don’t hate them, but this hits hard. They are THE most influential distro for people outside of the community. They have by far the biggest user base and community, but instead of using this to collaborate with other distributions and specially with the freedesktop folks for the improvement of the commons, they have this culture of downstream work that rarely get the effort needed to be upstreamed. It’s usually “it’s good enough for us, so that’s where we’ll leave it”, and they end up with these weird solutions that only they use.

joojmachine,

quite rare L brodie take there

joojmachine,

The whole point of that is make it clear that the dark mode of the app isn’t its default state. It doesn’t say “dark theme bad”, it clearly says just that the screenshots shouldn’t only be in dark mode.

joojmachine,

Favoring modern design on the icons is good. It doesn’t state that it has to be flat, it just says that it should at least follow some modern design guidelines so that the app doesn’t send the impression of being an older, unmaintained thing.

If I find an app in Flathub that has an icon that looks like it was made 20 years ago I’m shocked when it ends up using modern frameworks. I think Inkscape and GIMP are the only examples that comes to mind.

joojmachine,

obligatory reply to obligatory xkcd

joojmachine,

I know, I’m on the Flatpak side, just appreciate the intention behind snaps (although I quite frankly hate the execution).
