I’m not sure if your issues are related to the distro(s) used and not to the hardware. But if you wish immutable distros…

You can try to use Ubuntu, but installing all the apps as snaps (and/or flatpaks). That will give you immutable-like experience on a regular Ubuntu installation. Otherwise, I’d recommend to try Fedora Silverblue and openSUSE Aeon.

Tor Browser is the best way.

Not true about Rawhide. It’s a testing environment for maintainers and developers. And it often has many outdated packages.

Oh, these long-awaited arm laptops are designed for high TDP and have active cooling. I don’t see why to choose them over Intel/AMD in that case.

a “bug”

I saw something like this among Junji Ito’s manga.

Animal sexual behavior is under-reported in general, I think. Do not forget to report!

Oh, finally!

systemd now is focused around image-based systems. There is a huge gap between this design and traditional distros. I hate how the linux community has nothing in between of these two polar opposite approaches.

I’ve tried to use Fedora Workstation in VM (GNOME Boxes) with only 1GiB RAM. And it is even usable and UI is responsible for GNOME and Firefox, but applications start more slowly. All those at cost of higher CPU usage. Probably it performs well because Fedora uses swap on ZRam, and it makes the system more reliable.

Mozilla regularly buys proprietary services and provides them as exclusive FF features nobody asked.

They think it’s nice way to install command-line tools. I think that only spoil the idea of immutable system as a desktop OS, where ideally everything could be reduced to a single installation method.

That’s why I use the original Fedora Silverblue and have no interest in uBlue derivatives. Actually I want a more simplified base system and not more bloated one.

And yes, Flatpak is enough for everything (mind about Termux on Android).

Oh, thanks! I don’t know much about the current state of Windows.

It is not informative yet, but I like that it’s blue. It’s a quite recognizable color. Windows made it recognizable by having a lot of BSODs. People are asking why it couldn’t be just black, but with non-black BSOD one can recognize it instantly without reading the text.

If you can’t use it, don’t use it. There are other things in life besides constantly thinking about operating systems.

Tor.

Not completely. Some people will continue to be human to human friends and partners, and some will use AI instead, especially those who have problems to get along with humans.

Nice reaction for his attempt to present changes in Plasma and KDE itself somehow positive. It’s pleasure to see all these dislikes. I want to think that people who do that are KDE users, because it suits perfectly to the culture of the KDE community.

Oh no. I’m fine with installation. What with I’m not fine it’s requirement to access some websites to load an app, dependence from DNS in inner links, inability to proxy it through overlay networks, protection from spamming the network. Lack of everything what could make it deserve to be named P2P app. I just don’t want to see it placed in the same category with BitTorrent, I2P or RetroShare.

For becoming something noticeable Nostr firstly need to go beyond just a bitcoin maxi discussion platform. Currently it’s just a decentralized Parler.
