Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.

    What problems are you having with cron? I’ve been annoyed with cron many times over the years. I suppose you could just run

    sudo shutdown -h 20:00 &
    

    in a terminal to schedule a shutdown at 8pm. Or maybe edit your sudo file to allow user to run shutdown without a password and throw it in a user startup file.

      Cron just doesn’t exist for Bazzite. I’m sure there technically is a way to add it back but not practical.

      Hadn’t thought about a user startup file. Not exactly a clean solution but shrug if it works I can live with it. I’ll add it to my list of ideas to try.
