Great to see Unified Push on the list. As well as improved Wayland input method support, whatever that exactly means.

I prefer to stick to defaults whenever possible.

Same goes for me.
E.g. changing vim keybindings on my local system to better suit my non-QWERTY keyboard would be annoying since they don't transfer to remote systems. That's a reason I like fish, because it's defaults are modern and useable, compared to zsh/bash which benefits strongly from plugins.

It's definitely just my opinion. Honestly did not mean to imply otherwise.

For my opinion I usually create a comment below my post to seperate my opinion and the post itself.

On-topic: I do believe it's useful to have this switch and there's nothing stopping distros to change their default. Completely replacing the default keybindings might be surprising to long time users, but I also believe it should be done at some point. For the meantime this switch can be simply added as an alias.

PiVPN is great and was one of the first services I experimented with on my old Pi 3.

Now with wireguard existing I didn't feel the need for anything besides wg-quick or using wireguard directly. I didn't even know PiVPN got support for wireguard, but it's great that it got maintained for so many years.

It still works for private instances. The moment a public instance makes enough requests to reddit, they block it.

I'm running libreddit on my home server and access it through wireguard. Never been rate-limited. It's the only thing I still use Libredirect, since most platforms ban third-larry frontends.

How much will you be paying for a 25Gbps connection? And where do you live for these speeds to be available? Where I live 1Gbps is the max since a few years ago and costs 80€.

Can't help you with private trackers except recommending taking the invite for RED/OPS. TL sometimes does open signups and is solid for english content. MAM has a friendly and active community, so I definitly recommend joining them (if you're interested in books/audiobooks).

The I/O size is a reason why it's better to use cp than dd to copy an ISO to a USB stick. cp automatically selects an I/O size which should yield good performance, while dd's default is extremely small and it's necessary to specify a sane value manually (e.g. bs=1M).

With "everything" being a file on Linux, dd isn't really special for simply cloning a disk. The habit of using dd is still quite strong for me.

This will help eliminate excess baggage that builds up over time by automatically removing end-of-life runtimes that are no longer used. As the system is updated to use new drivers/run-times, the old ones can be automatically removed.

This might solve the issue with flatpak nvidia driver versions not being removed and accumulating over time. AMD/Intel don't have this issue as a single flatpak mesa driver version can work with multiple system drivers. Nvidia's closed source driver needs an exact version match to allow for flatpak's sandboxed GUI apps to work.

At least that's how I understand it, take it with a grain of salt.

Running everything under a single user is possible, but it also means an issue with a single app could wipe everything. It's better practice to add each user to a media group, and set *arr and qbittorrent to use this group and allow write permissions for users in the same group (e.g. 775 instead of 755). This means all users (plex, qbit, *arr) in the group media can access and modify files owned by media (or use the GID).

I've been using Sway on and off since 2020. Wayland always worked well as long as it supports the specific use case and the apps are doing the right thing (e.g. pipewire, portals, no Xwayland).

VRR with multiple monitors and HDR are likely the biggest reasons to use Wayland, as most other improvements are less noticeable. E.g. Sway always felt more responsive to me than i3 + picom, even with a single monitor in 2020.

If you have issues with applications not working well on Wayland, either wait for proper Wayland support or ditch them. For Steam this'd likely mean stay on X.org.

Im Kern solle "der extreme Ausgangsentwurf" der Kommission beibehalten werden. Die Beschränkung auf "Hochrisikodienste" sei bedeutungslos, "weil jeder Kommunikationsdienst immer auch zum Versenden illegaler Darstellungen missbraucht wird".

Ferner solle Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung weiter allgemein ausgehebelt werden, um Smartphones per Client-Side-Scanning "zu Spionen umzufunktionieren". Höchste Alarmstufe besteht laut dem Parlamentarier, weil auch bisher kritische EU-Staaten die umverpackten Pläne lobten und so die Sperrminorität nicht mehr stehe. Selbst von der Bundesregierung fehle eine klare Absage für die flächendeckende Chatkontrolle unverschlüsselter Dienste.

Fantastisch. Ich kann nicht glauben, dass dieses Thema immer noch nicht vom Tisch ist.

Luckily Steam will keep Duck Game in my library, but I dread the moment Valve leadership changes. Steam has existed for 20 years, and I naively hope I'll still be able to play my games in 40 years on my Steck Deck.

JPEG-XL allows the use of client-side synthesized grain. A method pioneered by Netflix/AV1 I believe. Compression algorithms struggle with high frequency detail, which often introduce visible artifacts. JPEG-XL allows to decouple the grain component from the actual image data. This allows for significantly more efficient compression of images that inherently require noise, such as those in gnome-backgrounds — smooth gradients that would otherwise be susceptible to color banding.

Just wanted to note that tinkering with the bootloader on Fedora Atomic is as error-prone as on any other distro.

Manually configuring wireguard might work and protonvpn provides config files [1]. It's unrelated to the issue, but wireguard additionally supports port forwarding which increases download speeds for torrents.

I've no idea why the network isn't showing up.

The concurrent release of all Gnome components at the same time is one of the reasons Gnome is the preferred DE on commercial distros, as it makes planning and releasing new versions easier. All components are designed to work with each other and what doesn't make it in the release comes half a year later. Also, Nautilus (Gnome File Manager) is deeply integrated into the desktop.

The movie-web addon needs quite a bit of permissions. [1]

Edit: If it actually needs access to many websites/domains it's better to set the permissions explicitly for each of them like MALSync does. [2]

This add-on needs to:

• Block content on any page
• Access browser tabs
• Access your data for all websites

This add-on may also ask to:

• Access your data for all websites

Finally there's a general name for immutable Fedora. Creating a new name for each desktop variant is terrible because it's bot obvious what desktop it's actually using. Fedora Sway/Budgie Atomic is clear and concise. Sadly we're still stuck with Silverblue and Kinoite (which are good names, just not consistent).

I'm impressed how well wine-wayland already works. Some games still have issues with mouse locking, at least Overwatch doesn't register the at all. But as they said, bugs will be fixed over time.
