They’ve been astroturfing the fuck out of it for the last 6 weeks.

More Zorin spam.

I would use KDE Neon before I’d bother trying kubuntu yet again. Manjaro does a reasonable KDE version as well. Maybe Endeavour and Open SUSE too.

Fedora KDE is my distro of choice though.

I literally could not reproduce a single one of your bugs.

Kubuntu is utter dogshit as an example of Plasma and has been for years. I’ve installed it and seen it be completely unusable. Try the KDE Fedora spin and see what you get.

The first mistake is using Kubuntu. It’s always been a buggy mess.

I’m actually kind of convinced it’s built to make regular Ubuntu look good.

Ducks.

Mint is pretty late to the Wayland party with Cinnamon. It’s probably one of the worst distros to try to use Wayland on.

I think it took me 2 years to get six monitors on two GPUs working consistently under X11. Yes, I’m that fucking stubborn.

Wayland worked right from the start.

He did exactly this with Solus, he didn’t even respond to requests to release maintainership to someone else for months. He’s the reason project governance boards were invented.

Brilliant coder, but he flames out and fucks off.

That’s what I was wondering too.

If you read in bed, a cheap android tablet with FBReader connected to Calibre OPDS works nicely. I just bought a few old Nexus 7 tablets for redundancy and extra readers scattered around the house and at the cabin. They sync up reading positions over Gdrive. I like the tablet because I don’t have to turn on a light and it shuts the screen off when I fall asleep. You can set the brightness manually.

The software install process if you’re doing a lot of testing and/or dev on immutable distros is untenable in my experience. I lasted about 3 days on Aurora and had to go back to Fedora, couldn’t stand dealing with the overlay bullshit for anything that wasn’t a flatpak.

Honestly, it sounds like a pain in the ass if you’re a power user.

I used to use Manjaro despite the hate, it works fine. I moved to Fedora KDE because it’s as up to date or better than Manjaro and even though I rarely had issues with Manjaro, I’ve had even less with Fedora, and the software available is almost as good, without the sketchiness of the AUR.

I’ve used Distrobox for confining dev environments to a container and still be able to use tools installed on them in the DE. That falls down a bit when you get into mobile development where you have to interface attached devices over USB, I found. Maybe I just had to git gud at that.

I used one of these back in the day for WoW raiding. It was awesome.

Be me, build a Dockerfile to do all that shit in a nice CI package, still can’t run it.

You’re not my supervisor.

Is there a link that isn’t a fucking video?
