Okey then! I think it’s a bad suggestion. Peace out

I was just curious about why you think this way. It’s not a big deal to anyone except you. The KDE team already has a deadline for new feature before a big release in order to have enough time for testing and fixing. And this wasn’t a big change or new feature so they decided to implement it. It’s pretty bold to assume this was a huge change. Both of us can go check the source code but I don’t care enough to do it.

The edit mode works a lot better now and it’s not as buggy from my experience.

If you really care about stability then use Debian or any other distro that delays big updates and does backports to fixes. Exactly like you are suggesting. If you are using Arch or any other rolling release distro then this is what you signed up for.

The desktop edit change is a huge change for the developers and for the end user, with lot of background changes to make it work correctly, with lot of fixes after it.

How do you know this? The desktop edit feature was already in place. It’s not new. They refined the UI in 6.1 and made the desktop zoom out

Yeah kinda. A container has a lot better performance than a virtual machine and can interact with your system

Vanilla OS 2.0 looks promising in my opinion. But it’s not out yet unfortunately. It’s an immutable distro that has integrated containers for all the main Linux distros. You can for example install Ubuntu, Fedora and Arch stuff on the same machine.

Does this list include rolling release distros like Arch? Because I can see no mention of it

If you want to play games then check out Nobara. It’s based on Fedora and made by the guy that created GE Proton

What’s up with all the negativity around flatpaks? I use Arch (btw) and I try to install as much as I can using flatpak. I think they are great. They are compatible, usually up to date, easy to install, easy to remove and it won’t break your system. The sandbox can be edited to include more paths etc.

I would like to recommend Yabsnap as an alternative to Snapper. It’s made for Arch, tested on Fedora and might work on other distros. But it needs more eyes and testers!

Edit: thank you for the list! It’s very nice to see what is available for btrfs

I have heard that Nobara Linux is great for gaming but I can not confirm since I use Arch btw

If Linux is to go mainstream I feel like KDE needs to be the default Desktop experience on distros. The Windows-like style is what the majority of people recognize and are familiar with and the KDE developers seems to care a lot about their userbase.

New users already has a lot to deal with and learn when it comes it Linux. They don’t need their desktop environment to work against them too.

I’m using Niagara launcher and I am very happy with it. But I would definitely use Kvaesitso if I hadn’t already paid for lifetime premium Niagara.

Last time I signed up (a few years ago) you could just enter whatever email you wanted and never bother to verify it. It’s only a problem if you forget your password

But not too frequently. Updating too often on Arch will increase your chances of something breaking. Updating once a week or twice a week gives the developers some time to fix bugs and make changes to other packages as needed

Have you had any use for the screen protector? I got the 512gb model with anti-glare and it stopped working with a glass protector on top so I decided to just skip it. Still no scratches anywhere on my deck. I just keep it in the original case when I am not using it

You can make a separate home folder for the distrobox container if case you don’t want to get your main home folder dirty

And Vanguard is already being bypassed by using external tools. IIRC I saw a video about it where the cheater had the hack running on a completely separate computer.

The wierd app drawer was still a thing and a few other things I really didn’t like. Canonical was giving away copies to try at Dreamhack Summer. I remember it very well

The Plasma desktop is well supported and is pretty close to a Windows experience.

I hate Gnome with passion because it’s nothing like Windows. I tested Ubuntu 2009 and the Gnome DE is what made me not like Linux. I did not know at the time that KDE Plasma also existed

I just want to say that “Arch” didn’t push or update anything. Everything in the AUR is maintained by the community and if something from there breaks then it’s not on the Arch team
