Papers please. Having fun so far doing the story

Wait and see you distrohopping every month for years ending up in a boring stable distro.

In Brazil I only see more and more places adopting it, does not seem a failure

2024 will be the year of ARM on desktops!

Why don’t you install flatpak on Ubuntu, make the packaging migration before doing the OS migration so you can evaluate your workflow with the new packaging system? Afer you’re used and confident with flatpak, backup and restore the flatpak folder into fedora and you transition should be smoother (don’t need to worry with 2 stuff at the same time)

Stray. It’s an awesome game to play casually, lots of fun pluzzes.

As an addition to other responses, think that most apps (specially smaller ones) are developed using some framework or set of libraries that might or might not support those protocols.

So let’s pretend that I have an app buit using Electron and that framework does not support Wayland. There’s nothing I can do on the app side until Electron supports Wayland in this fake example.

So it actually takes time for the libraries to support the new protocol and then app developers to update their apps to support it aswell.

That’s why you see that the Wayland migration is incremental and not all at once.

I decided to get back into Minecraft to try to finish the End Dragon

What I do nowadays is to have Timeshift daily backups in case something breaks the system and the Ubuntu backup application doing daily backups of my home to my NAS. I don’t have a separate home partition although this is often recommended.

This setup saved me once, but I haven’t needed it for almost 2 years now.

Doesn’t windows ship with a native email client? I don’t use Windows but I remember an email app on it.

Canonical also tried this a few years ago with their Ubuntu Touch crowdfunding and failed. Even released some convergent devices but that didn’t sell much. My impression is that although the concept is cool it is simply not appealing for the general audience

They sell a bunch of models with Ubuntu pre installed in Brazil also. Not every model / configurations, but even gaming laptops are available here.

If I remember correctly they also released a bunch of games in Wii u last year

I think the key here is to favor stability than latest features as you don’t want your server stopping due to bugs.

So the systems being recommended here, like Debian and Ubuntu LTS are good.

Nowadays I don’t even bother with upgrades anymore. Snaps and Flatpaks auto updates automatically, and for system updates Ubuntu notifies once a week.

For me the experience nowadays is better than before, where app updates are tied to system updates, meaning that older bases (like Ubuntu LTS) got behind on some softwares.

Anyone know a good Google Chrome replacement on Android that is chromium based? Wanna a basic browser that I’ll use when Firefox does not work correctly

Snaps have a similar deduplication mechanism, and snaps allows calling apps from their names like you would do with regular packages.

I think the reason for the second one is that while snaps are also meant to be used in servers/cli flatpak is built only with desktop GUI apps in mind.

That would be the same of hating docker because it creates networks. It’s just how it’s sandbox works.

I’m not defending canonical decisions, but definably when they started working on this there was no other alternative available for them to collaborate at the time

You know that snaps existed before Flatpaks right?
