its really only /bin /usr, much of /etc is editable like normal. People hear read only system and freak out like its locked down. Most things I use are flatpak, or in a distrobox and there are now sys-exts that do a lot of what anyone could need
I started fiddling with toolbox and distrobox and really liked being able to install random stuff and build dependencies in those containers and then purge them when I was done. It keeps the system clean. The ostree distros take that mentality to the whole system.
I also then found I liked the appliance like nature and the ability to rebase. I will sometimes rebase to the rawhide branch to try new stuff out, and then rebase back to stable. I see some people feel the read only file system is going to be an issue, but I have not had to screw with it since the very early days. I truly believe this is where most distros should be headed.
I used Fedora KDE from 2012 to 2023, then I moved to Fedora Kinoite because I like the idea of atomic distros. Don’t know if that counts though since its mostly the same software, just delivered slightly differently (however you could argue that is the case for all distros)
Last I checked it didnt play very nicely in real hardware, and required running it in a VM
what a bizare take to suggest hoping for ReactOS to mature before using Linux as daily driver. A lot of the current reactOS app compatibility depends on WINE implementation anyway.
they should also blank the screen if the user has recall enabled
in my terminal I press ctrl + r and then type the name of the machine
Does input-leap do what you need from Barriers? I control my testing mac at work with input-leap
Organise Settings better, put common features front and centre?
Why is finding my IP address so hard on a Windows machine? Its either open settings app and click down 3 layers deep or open a pwsh prompt and either ipconfig or Get-NetIPAddress.
Linux click network applet in most desktop environments. Even MacOS option + click network icon
“we replaced the browser with ad ware, that we even admit we had to ship settings to minimise its malware effect”
if you’re worried about the integrity of the sources you’re installing from why are you using app images? Use a repo, or flathub
does anyone buy a product for AI or Assistant features?
Any of the ostree variants of Fedora, be they Fedora Official or downstream ones like the Universal Blue family
Fedora’s repo build has had this turned on for literally years
there is some change of workflow, but its not difficult. The benefits outweigh the changes or any perceived draw back IMHO
Any chances you guys could suggest me one setup that “just works” no ifs and no buts? Or does it not exist in the Linux world?
You’ve given so little insight into your experience
My most recent hardware has been fine
In the past I’ve had thinkpads (an X1 carbon and a T485), also good choices
Over my 12 years of using Linux as my daily for work and home (and about 13 years of fiddling with it on and off before that), avoid realtek hardware, avoid nvidia gpus, avoid switchable graphics, avoid strange OEM feature devices. Check hardware for compatibility before you buy it. Stick to mainstream distros, not niche 1 man community distros. I’ve moved to immutable/atomic distros because they are harder to tinker with outside of user space, as historically tinkering is what got me into trouble, now I do that in a container away from my base OS.
I work tech in schools (in Australia) there are definitely tech savvy enough kids that will probably spool up their own fediverse instances
I rebase my work machine to rawhide just for fun and testing
Thincast on flathub?
Krdc is pretty good too
