I keep seeing people saying this but realistically how many new users had to do that? IMO, it’s just the fact that Bazzite has pretty much everything you need out of the box.

Why would you need a circle tool? Is your monitor round?

I’ve always gave Linux a try for a week or so over many years but then crawled back to Windows. First time I’ve actually found it somewhat viable and I stuck to it for over a month was with Proton release but at that point there were still too many pain points while using it.

Then when Windows started pushing Recall I went to Fedora 38 and it lasted me for almost 6 months before I went back to W11 due to many issues related to just basic use on desktop due to buggy nature of KDE 5 with which I’ve lost patience.

Starting with Fedora 40 and with GNOME starting supporting VRR I’ve been on Linux since and had no real desire to go back since. So it seems that for my use case Linux finally got to the point where Windows is not a necessary thing for me, in fact I dread going back whenever I think about it as now there are things I would miss by switching back to Windows.

Also I use Windows 11 at my job and I really hate it, multi-tasking is so much better even with just single monitor on Linux vs Dual monitor on Windows… Also I just really like GNOME, even before I’ve even tried GNOME I’ve customized my KDE to be GNOME like before even realizing it. And yes, I’ve tried KDE 6 but it’s not for me. I plan to try Hyprland though as that seems more interesting but I dread moving on from Fedora as it works well for me so I don’t really have any need to disto hop.

should be most likely within week of Fedora 43 release

I experience the same thing every time I decide to try KDE on any distro.

Deciding on what is the best distro

Dad, you forgot to take your meds again!

I think I’ve actually touched CD/DVD for the last time in 2012/2013… I should be fine

They also limit you by installing some stuff you’d like to get working. It’s a double edge sword. I’m not saying you can’t get around it but for newbie it can be a big hurdle.

I just use regular Fedora 42 Workstation and it works without issues. Bazzite is basically gaming focused Fedora 42 Silverblue (immutable) but I personally don’t like immutability.

CachyOS is worth a try as well, that’s a gaming focused Arch distro, though I just like Fedora too much and didn’t enjoy using CachyOS

Honestly though, any of those will work fine for you, especially if you have no point of reference to compare in between them.

Will give that a try tommorrow. Thanks for suggestion I had no idea ffmpeg can do this

Yes, it’s Gnome Software. Discover = Gnome Software… the default app finder that comes with the OS once you install it. It’s not like I’ve installed a different app searcher for some reason.

By the way. AFter fresh install I’ve installed GSConnect directly from extensions and it immediatelly shows up in the menu by default. The GSConnect from Discover store shows as not installed. Also nowhere in the Discover store it says it’s an extensions.

They really need to make this more clear tbh, it’s very confusing for people who never used it.

I’ve already reinstalled and set up everything :)

I did check the history btw, it was not there at all. And there were only 16 lines as well so it’s not like I’ve overlooked it.

So got GSConnect to work… I had to also enable it in Extension manager for some reason. I had no idea it’s an extension since I’ve just i stalled it as RPM package from the discover store.

Anyhow, it’s just confusing. I was installing KDE Connect on both my PC and laptop. I never even heard of GSConnect until I started troubleshooting and I thought it’s just some GNOME fork of KDE-Connect, not actually a mandatory replacement for KDE-Connect on GNOME.

It may make sense in the name but the name makes it even more confusing. Since it works on Android/Windows,… Why would I not assume it will work on Linux GNOME?

But thanks, I found GS conncect in the Extension manager… Why the hell is it even there? Anyhow, it works. But the fact I cant uninstall KDE Connect now drives me crazy… Time for fresh system install I guess… Again

I cant even uninstall KDE-connect now. Even via terminal it doesn’t work.

Error: org.kde.desktop is not installed. Is it really required to have KDE Desktop?

The bacground app is Amberol btw
