  • I had problems with waking from sleep/hibernate, audio issues (total dropouts as well as distortion in screen-recording apps), choppy video playback and refusal to enter fullscreen, wonky cursor scaling, apps not working as expected or not running at all. I've managed to fix most of these or find temporary workarounds (grateful for flatpaks for once!) or alternative applications. But the experience was not fun, particularly as there was only a 2 week return window for the laptop and I needed to be sure the problems weren't hardware design/choice related. And I'm finding it 50/50 whether an app actually works when I install it from the repo. There's a lot less documentation for manually installing things as well and DNF is slow compared to apt...

    I don't want to say for certain that Fedora as a distro is to blame but I suspect that it is. I miss my Debian days.

  • Another option for some Kobos is Inkbox/QuillOS. It's a full open source OS replacement and is very cool. It was very usable last summer when I tried it out on my Kobo Clara HD and is probably even better now.

  • Ah OK, I understand. Yes, it sounds like it would make sense for GIMP to offer the option to immediately crop in that case.

    If it's a helpful alternative, you can also drag an image from another application onto the GIMP logo above the toolbox to open it as a new file, rather than pasting it onto one which is already open. I often do this when I want to open something from my web browser :)
