That will be labeled as “other” in those cases

It’s the year of the Linux desktop

I just at ~/projects it contains a boat load of stuff including my Neovim and bash stuff.

Guys, use GNU Stow + git for your configs shit’s good.

I’ve been using KDE for 6 years now and Gnome is not my vibe but I still consider it a massive upgrade that’s not disappointing.

I mistrust because it’s inaccurate.

If you have 48GB you don’t need a swapfile. To min-max you could lower the “swappiness” so it uses swapfiles way less. It’s just bonus memory that lives on the SSD. Swap files and swap partitions behave the same unless you run out of SSD space.

Linux system has better architecture than Windows so your system is safe unless you install a virus (of which there are way fewer).

Where you install programs? Just use the app store or terminal, the location doesn’t matter.

The “hardening” is interesting though, you can go really far into security if you want. If things are installed in user-space it can’t fuck with your computer on a fundamental level so it’s preferred. You don’t have to worry about it though unless your installing some niche programs from someone you know nothing about.

I barely use AI for work but I gotta say that it’s the first time I can get some very specific tasks done faster.

I currently make it write code generators, I fix the up and after that I have something better at making boilerplate than these LLMs. Today I had to throw up a bunch of CRUD for a small webapp and it saved me around 1-2 hours.

I must have an older install then, I installed Bazzite some time ago and it came with discover

You can install Bazzite with KDE also if I’m not mistaken

Same, I have 100Mb up and only use a fraction of it.

I’m out of the loop here, what’s the context?

Neon is still alive and well but there’s going to be another reference implementation of KDE coming soon so I’m getting worried.

A lot of guides can get overly technical but keyboards usually have a pretty standardised BT connection and all keyboards I’ve used have worked. Did you look up the manual and see if you need to put it into pairing mode/make it discoverable/reset it to connect to another device?

If yes, you should provide the keyboard model so people here can help you with it.

Yeah, in general Gnome feels more like an entry point for Mac users and the default experience is super polished. KDE has made massive stability improvements and they don’t do the whole fiasco that 4.0 was anymore. I really like that it’s more oriented towards people who like a lot of settings to play with and you can pretty much make your own desktop UI without installing a bunch of less supported extensions.

I currently jammed everything into a small bar at the top with a global menu, tasks, system tray, clock and quick notes, set up shortcuts for loads of stuff and removed the title bar. My screen space probably is the biggest I’ve seen and I feel like other people are in toolbar hell, lol.

The defaults are more similar to Windows, Gnome is really good too, more aesthetically pleasing also IMO.

Mint 100% to start with, install Nvidia drivers if you have an Nvidia graphics card. Install and run a game though Steam or whatever and if all the hardware works and you can get the refresh rate you want you’re good to go.

If not, install Fedora KDE and do the same.

If you still have issues on Fedora make another post here with some hardware details and say what you tried.

You don’t really need to be bleeding edge to have some hardware issues or Cinnamon Mint. Their wayland transition is still ongoing so HDR, variable refresh rate, fractional scaling and maybe some bugs for specific hardware might be present. X11 has also seen a lot less love recently after the major distros stopped actively supporting it.

KDE has nailed the Wayland transition so moving to Fedora KDE would have fixed Wayland/X11 bugs.

I use KDE neon, I’d never recommend it to my friends though because quirks pop up every now and then and disappear after a couple of weeks.

I’d tell them to use Kubuntu which is just much more stable and is the same thing without quirks.

I considering moving to Hyperland on Arch which I’d recommend even less.

I don’t mind billionaires as long as everything is fairly taxed.

If it were my choice I would probably go for Vue since I’ve worked with it for about a year also Evan Yu is a developer I have 100% confidence in making it better over time. I mean, he made Vite after all. The transition from v2 to v3 was pretty much backwards compatible while angular breaks shit all the f-ing time. But out of the ones I don’t know Svelte looks the best. Do I need a “chart.js-svelte” package? Nope, just use the normal one. Dependency management looks soooo much simpler than having a less supported framework specific version of it.
