I run both on my unraid NAS. I use plex for streaming to my phone over cell data. I use jellyfin for streaming to my laptops and TV.

Plex tends to break every once and a while though. Not often, but it happens enough that I’m replacing it with just having my music on a DAP that is synced with Syncthing.

I also use the comic viewer function of jellyfin.

It would be another outrage lever to push in America between Maga and dems.

I don’t miss AUR. Well, I do but opensuse has OBS. Technically OBS is better as packages can be rebuilt automatically when dependencies are updated, but there are a lot more users on the AUR than OBS so AUR has more stuff on it.

OBS packages are less likely to break your system in an update, but the AUR is just flat out bigger.

There hasn’t been anything I’ve needed that I haven’t been able to find either on OBS or as a flatpak. When something isn’t in the disro repos, I look for a flatpak first, then check OBS. Mostly cause flatpaks are easier to search.

Did you miss a required manual intervention on an update? A while ago there was an arch update that needed manual intervention cause of a dependency circle. Might be worth looking up the past year or so of manual intervention newsletter posts for Arch.

Last time I had a dependacy issue I was able to remove the conflicting package, update, then reinstall the package and it worked fine afterwards.

My own system was working great for a long while on an Arch flavour. But a bit ago HDR stopped working properly after an update and I just couldn’t get it running right. Would display very dim.

Eventually gave up on my 2 year old install and went back to Tumbleweed.

I loved all the tinkering on Arch, but I just don’t have it in me to do the tinkering anymore.

Eventually yes, but no estimate on when that will be, I know there has been a statement by the PopOS team that they’re working on it.

Right now if you want HDR you pretty much have to be running KDE for your DE.

Mint with KDE if it doesn’t support it already it will the next major release.

No idea when Gnome HDR support will come.

I’m really looking forward to using their Cosmic DE once HDR support is in.

I’m on Tumbleweed right now. Used to be on Arch flavors, Garuda then Cachy OS.

Tumbleweed is almost as fast for gaming performance, I just don’t have it in me to do all the tinkering anymore. Just want something up to date that works.

Arch was… great and pretty reliable, just got tired of the tinkering.

Gentoo was my second linux Distro ever some time in 2003 or 2004.

Installed it by printing out the full install doc, which was like 30 or 40 pages, and starting up a stage one install. I got through the entire install by following the instructions because the documentation was that good.

I remember having a problem and hopping on an irc chat to ask for help and people there being baffled about the basic level questions I was asking while having a working Gentoo install.

My first was Suse Enterpise Linux. Bought from Best Buy in the late 90s.

It’s not Ubuntu but the fuel control systems and the pumps at Speedway run linux. They also boot really fast.

Michigan lotto terminals are also all linux.

I ran Gentoo in high school. I think I spent more time tinkering on it than I ever did getting anything done, but damn was it fast. I ripped support out for everything except for my hardware.

Just got a new laptop and put an arch flavor on it, keep thinking of going back to Tumbleweed. I’ve kept on Arch derivatives cause of the AUR, but I haven’t actually touched the AUR in a while, and a couple of the things I used the AUR for are now being published as flatpaks by the creators because of the Steam Deck.
