Ungoogled chromium. It’s faster then firefox in nearly everything I test, doesn’t have stupid issues like not rendering gradients properly.
I use firefox on my desktop for one single reason, and that’s because there is literally nothing for chromium, that is remotely close to simple tab groups.
I pretty much just don’t help arch and arch derivatives users any more despite using it for over a decade now. It’s not worth the time nor effort.
why is this piracy? IS this something you traditionally need to pay for?
how does distrobox/podman stuff work? Isn’t this mostly just shell auto complete and making sure the typical escape sequences work?
interesting, I thought I had to download and setup myself, ill look into this then
It would be nice if torrent clients included I2P support by default without the need for auxiliary tools. that being said, I don’t really know enough about i2p to understand the actual privacy benefits of it or viability of something like this
Waiting for stract to get the support it needs
actively hostile is putting it nicely, imagine being a paid supporter of bottles, you wake up, update, and find out the app you used to effectively use most of your important apps has no intentionally bricked itself and you need to either download install and setup flatpak, which breaks a good chunk of your apps by default do to the sandboxing, and now you need to spend hours trying to figure that out, or roll back.
I 100% support suse’s decisions.
They take donations, that’s not free.
based suse, I hate updating software and effectively bricking it, I don’t support that shit at all
Honestly, YES. Almost every linux user I have come across has been like “Linux has been the best and most stable experience I have ever had” and then turn around and debug some obscure issue without batting an eye.
I do believe that most people are just so desensitized to “generic issues” that they don’t even bat an eye anymore and straight up don’t see them as issues.
I do believe linux is an extremely buggy experience regardless of what DE or distro you use. It just so happens that said bugs are often really easy to deal with if you have experience.
gnome iirc also has merged the wip protocol so it should work on gnome too
uh, kinda not really? I mean, you can calibrate your screen to sRGB, if you calibrate it to anything else, every non managed app will completely and utterly break
Gobo Linux has to have been the distro I was looking forward to most too. I really hope it picks up because it’s design philosophies. Absolutely phenomenal.
Firefox is understaffed, servo was canned, deepspeech was canned, firefox reality was canned, firefox for android TVs was canned, send was canned, the upstream project which the translate feature is based on (bergamot) has been extremely inactive and many more.
each one of these projects was/is “important” in some way, and while there are alternatives now or have been picked up by various third parties, each one had a lot of untapped potential, and lets take a look at the projects alternatives or forks current state.
servo: was picked up by igalia, and is massively far behind, It still has a lot of potential, and progress is quick for what it is, but this is a real embeddable alternative to chrome. Not viable yet, and likely wont be for another year or two.
Deepspeech: Coqui is dead, existing speech to text stuff is all either proprietary or extremely low quality. Only recently have we seen some progress due to speech to speech AI (AI voice replication). Still largely unusable. Some promising projects have cropped up but none are viable yet.
Firefox reality: Wolvic took over, it’s in the process of being ported to chromium.
Firefox for android TV: No alternatives even exist, you have TVBro and Vitabrowser are all just barely usable. and they rely on webview, a geckoview browser https://github.com/threethan/LightningBrowser which isn’t really usable.
Send: This is the one fork that is actually flourishing. This is really a nifty service at least.
worse? If this means that they refocus on things that matter then I consider this better.
verso is a seperate project, it’s not built in, servo’s built in browser is more of a basic shell for usability and testing stuff.
EDIT: My bad, no glasses, misread on for in, there is also moto https://github.com/moto-browser/moto
I am actually really glad to see this happen, Mozilla needs a massive refocus on what actually matters (Firefox, Thunderbird, new tech etc).
there was once a time when mozilla was at the fore front of tech development and they were churning out extremely cool tech one after the other. Servo, DeepSpeech, Firefox reality (wolvic is the successor in case anyone was wondering), a TV browser (Why did they have to kill this of all things off T.T) and others.
I want to see mozilla put more focus, and more importantly, a larger portion of the money they receive on actually doing things.
Sadly kdenlive is still extremely buggy and slow for me.
Even when using proxy clips which are an absolute necessity to get decent performance I still can’t edit at decent performance. This is on a ryzen 2600 and arc a380 which has no problems with other tools even when editing 4k timelines so long as I use low impact codecs on the timeline.
The insane amount of crashes it has makes it really hard to use, I can get by using autosave but its more tedious then it is worth. I keep coming back and trying kdenlive, but I can just never use it. I hope it does good eventually, but for the forseeable future I dont see that happening.
