2·12 days agoJust mentioned SystemD in another post of mine.
In the case of GNOME they take their whole toolkit with them. Obviously you can switch DEs but it’s still sad and annoying to see. From 5 years ago but still holds up: https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/horrible-gtk3-gnome-ui-design-is-leaking-into-ubuntu-mate-applications-in-20-04/22028/58.
Obviously not blatant money/data harvesting like with big tech companies, but corporate strong-arming has been done on Linux (systemD) and can be done again. Granted it’s much harder on Linux (in the case of my SystemD example there are distros like Void or Artix) but there is still a risk imo.
Take with a grain of salt because the steam hardware survey has historically had sample size issues.
Very nice to see, only worry is that Linux will get enshittified (primarily by the GNOME people).
Raspberry Pis these days are overpriced, a cheaper mini PC/old Optiplex will do fine.
It would be faster, but note that eMMC is the worst kind of solid state drive out there and you should replace it as soon as possible, or at least don’t store anything critical on it.
