Doesn’t feel gnomey enough.

TuxedoOS because my so-called “Linux-Laptop” turned out to not run mainline Linux very smoothly. But I hate that fact that it’s Ubuntu-based.

I’d use Debian, Arch or dabble with Void if I could on my laptop, my servers run Debian or Alma.

I must say I’m not 100% happy with my InfinityBook Pro 14 Gen 9 AMD. The build quality has very much improved since the Gen 7 (which I daily-drove before), but it feels like Tuxedo’s take on “Linux Laptop” is rather something like “Tuxedo-OS Laptop”. On Fedora I had to tweak kernel params so my laptop doesn’t wake up from sleep on its own and do the same to resolve an audio issue, and my RJ45 port just simply doesn’t work even with their drivers.

And something inside the device makes a quiet but annoying beep-like noise when the fans don’t spin.

Apart from that I love the device, but if you plan to use your own distro of choice and really want a high-quality build I’d not really recommend it.

I recently had to use a friend’s old 4gb macbook for some weeks because my laptop was stolen. I was surprised how well everything worked, even when using a few web apps in firefox. I think with using zram and avoiding web / electron apps where possible, you might get quite something out of a 4gb machine.

Did you configure port forwarding properly? Otherwise it might be that leechers can’t contact you.

Take a look at the podman kube play command which lets you run K8s-style stack definitions on podman. Has partly replaced compose for me (although I still have some docker servers running for stacks that don’t play nicely with podman yet).

Probably not what OP is looking for.

But I’m also happy with my Garmin Instinct. I use it disconnected from my phone, it does everything I need offline and stand-alone. To add tracks for navigation I just connect it to my linux laptop and drop the GPX file into the NewFiles (or whatever it’s called) folder on the watch. I was surprised how well it works without official apps. The only thing I used the app for was to update the firmware when I bought the watch.

Also, fittrackee looks promising - thanks for the tip!

I would second that. I currently use nix besides Flatpaks for development environments but also find it somewhat overcomplicated. Looking forward to give toolbx a try.

Does not answer your question, and someone already mentioned it in a thread, but don’t forget zram when only 4GBs are available.

I went to a small (~30 people) festival dedicated to wood carving, because I was asked if a wanted to cook for everyone. Found it very inspiring to get an impression of that very specific sub culture.

Step by step, it seems, YouTube is evolving into something that has previously been called TV.

Totally agree, that would be even better.

I totally agree regarding making it optional, but I have to say the idea of auto generating alt texts sounds like a really useful application of AI - no one really likes to do that manually yet a significant number of beautiful people rely on it.

Same problem here, my company requires 2FA for remote network access. MS Authenticator requires Google Services on Android which I don’t have - so no home office for me I guess.

To be fair, there are a lot of Flatpacks published by the devs themselves (especially in the Gnome/GTK ecosystem).

IIRC extensions are sadly not a part of stable Gnome Web yet.

Believe it or not, she’s now running a graphics design studio.

My sister and I figured out that we could draw. On the windshield of our neighbours car. Using stones.
