  • Experienced none of that with openSUSE Tumbleweed or EndeavourOS. The only bug I have is a panel mis-sized when first logging in but that seems to be fixed in 6.3.

  • I used Tumbleweed for eight years with no problems. I only moved to EndeavourOS because Suse bared their corporate teeth and I got fed up being a couple of generations behind on the Nvidia drivers. EndeavourOS is also good.

  • They don't just decide to remove a driver on a whim, there's a whole process which involves reaching out to the original maintainers and seeing if anyone else wants to take it on among other things. Internet search is so poor these days, I can't find the information on it.

  • Curry radiates comfy

  • As the kernel moves on changes could be introduced that make them difficult to compile with the new kernel. Unmaintained doesn't only mean not adding new features, it means keeping up with the rest of the code.

  • When I switched, about 23 years ago, I missed Moray - the modeller for POVRay. Now I miss nothing.

  • I thought it was open but I could be wrong looking at their website it says the code is available on github

  • Onlyoffice is said to have better compatibility with MS Office so that may be worth a try.

  • Imagine, if you will, a whole open plan office full of them...

  • I'm fetching the camera!

  • I wouldn't like that, no sir, I wouldn't like that at all!

    Too many useful tools on the terminal.

  • Except on IT which is extremely realistic.

  • “Think about 720p” or “Also think about 720p” principle.

    The problem with that is if only a few people have 720p then the majority suffer for no real reason. The only way to know for sure is hardware surveys. That said, Linux is known for running on older hardware so maybe it should be taken into consideration. The only way to know for sure is hardware surveys, everything else is assumption.

    If, like KDE's, they are opt in, anonymous, allow you to choose how much information to share, and can't track an individual over time then I think they are a positive and an easy way to contribute back to a project. If they are like the Manjaro proposal, which is none of those things, then they are a negative and should be opted out of.

  • Developers will develop so it is right for the majority of their users and I guess they are aiming at 1080p which is mid-range at the moment. This is why hardware stats are important. If they're anonymous then what's the problem with them?

    Your English is fine.

  • My experience of anything Ubuntu based is that it is buggy as hell. I have no knowledge of Fedora.
