  • After being on Graphene for the past 2 years,I decided to reinstall with no google at all,since my bank app now works without any google services dependencies.

    hooray for me,I'm finally free and can profit from multiuser installed sandboxed services in another user profile if needed.

    Glad to be out of this downward spiral.

  • Of course they are. they share dependencies with other software. flatpaks bundle all dependencies,which is great for sandboxing,even though some sort of break the rule and share some,they are still sandboxed.

    Unless you "firejail" or "bubblewrap" your software, security is much better OOB for flatpaks.

  • No hate from me,but rather a simple question? Why use preconfigured distros instead of the original,always best, with archinstall script? You can even install pamac or whatever package installer tool manjaro uses.

  • While I admit most of my arch reinstalls are mostly the same,I feel that archinstall script is genuinely good now with most defaults I need. The rest I can just add it in the installer extra packages or chroot post install (which is offered as a choice at the end).

    I just could never bring myself to use distros that are technically the same distro with calamares slapped in top and whatnot. I mean 'pacman -S {packages}' is straightforward enough for me.

  • I mean...you're mostly right, but I don't know how setting a few flags like -H,-W,-h,-w is that big of an issue. I agree lutris and maybe heroic (I don't use) have frontends for these,but I would hardly that "way better".

    Edit: grammar,typos

  • It does though: "On Linux, the malware assumes the name 'sd-pam'. It achieves persistence using systemd services, an autostarting .desktop file, or by modifying various profile and startup files, such as  /etc/rc*, profile, bashrc, or inittab files."

    So technically useless . it can't do shit.

  • I've been distro hopping a bit lately trying out some immutable distros like nix,fedora kinoite,microos,but I always end up back on arch. I think that settles it and I should just stop,cause distro hopping is a waste of time.
