We have pretty easy to use homegrown package manager (eopkg). We also have our own software center, though it is in the process of being replaced by Gnome Software and KDE Discover. You can install software from Solus repository or Flathub via those software center. We adopt what we called “curated-rolling” release, we only do software update on Friday. We also ensure that packages from our repositrory can be run OOTB without user configuration, using principle what is called “stateless”. You can find out more about Solus on the website, help center, and forum.

True, I just like start minimal and add on top of that. Truth be told, my experience with Garuda is minimal.

I would guess jumping from PopOS to Bazzite would be a challange becaue of it is immutable base. It is supposedly less prone to brekage, but certain guides won’t work on them.

I think Nobara (or Fedora KDE) will work for you to try. I would avoid Garuda. It has many GUI for helping new user but if learning is your purpose, that just gets in the way. I would suggest Endeavor OS for Arch-based distro.

This is a left field suggestion: Try Solus [email protected] , we have a pretty good KDE edition. :)

Cheers!

Eh, close enough…

(Also that thing is an eldritch being, not an animal)

I use this too daily (I am a sucker for looks), but hands down Okular is better.

in capturing this coziness I ruined it by startling him awake with the shutter 😢.

From what I read Preview is full suite of PDF reader right? If so Okular by KDE seems like a good alternative.

Southeast asia, Indonesia 🇮🇩. Cheers!

(If anyone bothered to check my bio, it would be easy to figure out. lol)

Wrong country ;)

Wrong continent ;)

Canonically, they do eat pokemon but definitely not the one they raised 💀

This might be good middle ground. The last time I tried beeper, the apps is kinda … suck tho. Well, at least it not full of ads!

Does it still require user to install their desktop app first?

The most important people in my life is my family, especially my parents. Teaching them to try new app to chat to me is easy enough but all of their friends and groups are still on whatsapp.

Making them juggle between two apps (separating how they interact to me and totheir friends) is not easy. Justifying it is even harder, they simply don’t care (to understand) the implication.

Rather than make them confused and worried about not being able to contact me, I just have to accept the status quo. It is the conclusion I arrive at.

Must be nice tho to not use any Meta product. :)

Already did that months ago when they change the term of services and people are aware of it at the time. Many install Signal, tried them, signal got overloaded, experience degraded, people are back to Whatsapp. Now only dead account are there. Telegram is more popular but that is just jumping from crocodile’s mouth to shark’s.

Government agencies, company customee services all relies on Whatsapp. They have emails but if you want to get response in timely manners, Whatsapp is the way to go (Or twitter, again another bad alternatives).

At least it is still E2E (supposedly), so it is not all bad. Look, I know I sound pessimistic because I am (at least in this specific topic). I hope everyone else can do better than me, cheers!

This is one of the train that impossible for me to get off. It is very ubiquitous in my country to use whatsapp instead of text. I must suck it up I guess. 😅

I like game emulation and to manage my ROM library, I use Geode-GEM. It is simple but cusomizable app to manage your ROM based on console and emulator you have.

I hate it…hate it…really hate it

Most of them are just machine translated work with little editorial. The only good thing about them is they came out faster than the official translation (which usually will be free anyway).

This is not a fan translation anymore, just plain opportunistic business venture.

That is honestly surprising, I thought we were cautious about it at [email protected] . We already defaulted to Wayland on Plasma and Gnome for about a year (IIRC).
