You can still “subscribe” to channels and have your subscription notification and feed stuff, but the non sub stuff doesn’t show up. So it’s perfect for the people who don’t want to use Google services, but yeah, it doesn’t track you in any way, so it can’t recommend user specific content to you.

Is not for Android. Libretube and NewPipe (which I use) are valid options.

did something happen? is plasma just windows now?

so ya just put so the stuff in there? is there a reason for that specific directory (I’m kinda a noob)

its crazy to think that such an old display server is still being used and even defended to this day. X these days feels like a small thing with way too many extensions.

It really started out with no apt sources. I didn’t mess with that until I realized that they are missing.

It kinda has multiple times. I tried installing a Wayland version of gnome and that ended up nuking the Desktop multiple times. Then to fix it, I just ran this in a TTY: sudo apt remove gnome sudo apt install gnome And that fixed the desktop (even my wallpaper and shortcuts were back, wow).

And yes, I will update my sources to suit my OS.

In case it is needed, here is my current sources.list content:

# deb cdrom:[Official Debian GNU/Linux Live 12.1.0 gnome 2023-07-22T09:48:34Z]/ bookworm main non-free-fi>
# deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib non-free

deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main contrib non-free

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib non-free

deb https://deb.debian.org/debian/ trixie main non-free contrib non-free-firmware
deb-src https://deb.debian.org/debian/ trixie main non-free contrib non-free-firmware

# deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ buster main

I already checked via some terminal command, it’s X11.

Guess I’ll stiwch to Ardour then. I have tried both Ardour and LMMS in the past, but found Ardour to be too overwhelming. Thank your for writing such an elaborate comment, it really helps!

Also, I was really confused when I realized that the default Gnome installation which comes with Debian 12 is still X11. I thought gnome would have been Wayland only for some years by now. Might also just be the case because I’m using an NVidia GPU… Cuz yeah, Wayland really is just better to use now then X. That’s my experience on my ThinkPad at least. I tried installing the Wayland version, but couldn’t find it “gnome-session-wayland” in apt. I’ll look further into things there.

That’s unfortunate. I guess I’ll have to live with the apt provided version without vestige then…

UPDATE:

I got it working by messing around in the rescue mode. I selected some option which fiddles with the EFI boot and makes it accessible to the boot loader. So that’s cool. Now everything works.

Thank you very much for explaining. I will pursue as you said and look into the link you provided.

Thing is, when I just run “udev”, it says that udev wasn’t found.

How am I supposed to use udev, for example to reload the rules?

Good bot

All is fine. I just liked it

Ecosia is cool. Should probably also switch to it…

I’m not the right person to do that, they got some good advertisement tho.

I’d encourage you to wait a bit tho, because it seems like they are about to announce a new one.

Huh, interesting. Thanks for sharing.
