Useradd is the basic unix one, so that should work regardless of distro. Adduser does some special Debian stuff iirc

SafetyNet is also an issue on Android as soon as you modify anything or install a custom ROM :/

But even with an immutable distro you don’t have to reboot. The updated image just gets downloaded in the background and booted into when you restart. There is no harm in still being booted from the old image id you don’t specifically need anything only included in the new one. Nothing forces you to reboot.

That is true. But that’d be the case for any online/cloud 2FA service. So you could either have a local 2FA app just for Bitwarden or set up less secure but more convenient email 2FA.

I’d argue it’s implied that you mean the coming February if no year is specified.

I personally use Bitwarden for my 2FA needs. As others mentioned you can self host the server but personally I have no reason not to trust their SaaS solution, especially now that they offer EU hosted servers. If all you want is a basic authenticator app that does only one thing give FreeOTP a try, it’s made my RedHat. You can then sync the applications state.

Macs have a big user base, if you like it or not.

Apple supporting Vulkan or not supporting it will not change a thing about that.

Developers support platforms where the users are. Having good support for Vulkan on Macs would make their life easier.

I fail to see how that’s a bad thing. Apple not supporting Vulkan won’t drive the average user to install Linux as they don’t know what it even is.

I would love to see Apple go down the route of actually supporting modern OpenGL and Vulkan on their hardware. The hardware is amazing but forcing software to rely on Metal just holding it back especially when it comes to games.

Exactly. Trying to install the latest version of a bunch of apps on a base like Debian is bound to give you dependency issues if you try to install the native version.

I can only recommend you to look into using Flatpak to install graphical applications. It avoids the whole dependency or permission issues because it ships apps in their own well tested little sandbox. From a end user perspective its somewhat similar to how applications are bundled on macOS.

It works in a sense that it shows you a list of all your media in the app and syncs photos from your phone to the cloud. But it doesn’t make the features from within the photos app (albums, people, places) available in the app. That doesn’t really compare to Apple / Google Photos sadly.

My main issue with Nextcloud is that the photos app still doesn’t have any way to properly sync on mobile sadly :/ Photoprism at least has a PWA but it’s still not ideal. That’s the main thing keeping me on iCloud personally.

Considering the clashes system76 had with the GNOME team this seems to be going in a similar direction. Having a clearly defined way of theming applications instead of having themes just inject random css is the way to go in my opinion. I’m really excited to finally try Cosmic DE myself!

Also worth mentioning is that this version enables support for Wayland-only builds on Linux. In my experience Firefox on Wayland has worked great for at least the past ten version, so it seems like a good idea to make X11 support optional at build time now. Though I doubt any mainstream distros will build it like this by default.

Closest I could find is this mug and of course it’s on Etsy.
