Clearly you should be able to choose between an install without anything on it, an install with just a few apps and an install with all basic apps.

That would be perfect. We shouldn’t forget that a lot of beginners are using Linux for the first time with Ubuntu and you shouldn’t ask too much of them otherwise they’ll just go back to windows/apple.

Well let’s hope it makes it into the market with companies like Fairphone for instance.

It’s interesting to read as I never thought about the vulnerability these extensions are.

I guess you should limit the number of extensions you have.

I also really love Gnome and my kDrive is also perfectly integrated through WebDAV. Keep up the good work 👍

Thanks for your answer

I’m looking into creating a bootable USB on Linux with GParted, Clonezilla and a few other tools. Can you do that with Ventoy?

Most people are talking about having a multiple distributions on one USB stick, but I just wanted to be sure you can also do that with these tools 😇

Thanks for the help 👍

But witch partition should I shrink?

The source BTRFS one with my Fedora installation? And then leave the small ext4 and EFI ones that were automatically created during installation untouched?

If I resize my Fedora partition with Gparted it’s gonna keep its data and not get erased?

I’ve tried Lubuntu on my old laptop from around 2008 and it works fine. It had more ram (4gb), but I don’t think it was using all of it.

Well if you don’t want to subscribe to iCloud, how can you do it except with iTunes?

To be honest I’d really want to be able to create an image of my iPhone and back it up on my kdrive (a cloud storage service).

Good as everyone should be able to try to do some repairs when something is broken.

But programmed obsolescence is even worse as you have perfectly working devices which you can’t use anymore because they are officially not supported (by an os for instance).

Well just to give an update, I’ve now installed Fedora on that MacBook Pro and it was pretty easy. The only thing which didn’t work out of the box was the wifi. I had to install ROM fusion and then it downloaded some drivers.

Otherwise everything ran smoothly except for the installation of the windows 10 virtual machine in gnome boxes. I had installed the flatpak one, but that one doesn’t allow you to use the usb ports, so I had to reinstall the machine on the Rpm version.

So that old beast can now have a long life again!

Well the desktop OS is what made me choose a Surface Go 1 as my main computer. And now that I've switched to Linux (Fedora), I'm even more thankful that you could apply every tutorial you found on the web for that tablet.

I don't know as the normal Ksuite with 2TB and an email suits me well for now. But I'm really happy with their products.

I use Onlyoffice and kDrive from Infomaniak (swiss cloud company) and it works perfectly.

The cloud storage isn’t so expensive and they are ecologically and privacy minded.

Well finally I think we’ll keep MacOs Catalina for when she wants to use Apple stuff and dual boot it with Fedora for everything else. That way she can also slowly ease herself into using Linux.

Since I already have a perfectly set up Fedora installation, I wanted to know if anyone had an idea on how to duplicate it without going through 1000 steps.

But I might be in the wrong place since the second part isn’t really Apple related..

Apple is making really good hardware but we should stop buying it because of what they are doing against repairabality or because of the fact that they trying to capture you in their ecosystem.

Well I’m starting on Nebula right now and sadly the content isn’t there yet.

Maybe it’ll come but I found more things which interest me on Odysee or Dailymotion for now.

Still I really like the idea of paying for a subscription and not being the product anymore.

I’m still really happy with my Netflix subscription , but it’s clear for me that I’ll never subscribe to 2 streaming services at the same time.
