My experience is aligned with this. I’ve barely had any issues at all, especially in the 6.x cycle.

There was one pretty annoying panel bug, which was caused by Nvidia, but i’ve sent them reports, and they fixed it in the next driver release. The other one is a thirdparty addon, where under a certain setting combination, your shell would occasionally restart, but again that’s not a Plasma bug

For nix-darwin specifically, the cleaned up build process, and SDK packaging is nice. It hasn’t eliminated all the issues, but a lot of those are less of a fault of Nix, and more an issue with macOS design. Hoping they can be addressed somehow, but for now, the issues with workarounds are tracked.

And just in general, Python has kind of been a pain in the ass to understand, so any improvement is exciting, as i’m still learning how things work here.

A bunch of packages I want got officially merged or updated during this release cycle too, and as much as I appreciate thirdparty flakes, I don’t want to rely on them too much

Been a very exciting release.

The nix-darwin upgrades come along right as i migrated my Mac to Nix, but even outside of that, all the package and module merges are always welcome. All my machines run Nix now, so the less work I have to do manually, the better

People continue to buy it, so they will continue selling it. On top of that, gaming isn’t even their biggest market, so we stopped, it wouldn’t put a dent into their business.

It’s a big shame though

This is the correct answer. Putin has been almost universally hated, even within Russia, for years.

Everyone knows of his election fraud, and the assassinations of political opponents, let alone changing the law in his favor.

It’s just hard for people to have a strong response to what he does, because he spends the vast majority of his time controlling his meat puppets in silence. Meanwhile, both Trump and Musk yap their face off on every occasion

Can’t wait to try this one out. Every other fitness tracker i’ve used has either been acquired by some soulless corpo, or just gone down the drain anyway, reaching an unusable state in both outcomes. Most of them can’t even display basic calorie information without dishing out 10$ a month anymore

Twitch is garbage, so you moved to a platform ran by a gambling company, where rules practically don’t exist, and the majority of the userbase is vehemently sexist and racist? That’s a level of mental gymnastics I genuinely will never understand

I don’t want it to be popular. I want to have a good conversation, in the communities i choose to participate in, and that’s exactly what I found

A few front-end do, yeah. I’m talking about native support

I genuinely cannot express how much it annoys me that I cannot have a blocklist for keywords.

Most of the things I read are from my subscribed communities, which i’m very happy about generally, however given the overall state of life today, half of the posts in completely unrelated communities end up being one of the following:

• Twitter CEO
• Hate speech in US politics
• AI propaganda for some pump and dump quick money

I really just don’t want to see any of those things

Some of my closest friendships are people I’ve either never seen, or only got to meet a couple times. It’s not like living far away makes them worse friends.

You never know what kind of situation you’ll end up in. One time my transfer flights got messed up, and I was left stranded in a random airport for almost a day. I ended up asking around, and one of those long-distance friends drove hours to pick me up, get me some food, and let me get rest too.

Of course I’d love for them to live closer, so we can see each other regularly, but i’ll take what I can have

I replaced docker with podman on all of my systems, and so far i really have nothing to complain about. Works exactly as advertised

I use Bibata however I don’t really have a strong preference for any specific one.

Going to return to this thread a bit later, just to see if other people link something interesting

A lot of people have been very upset at the GNOME foundation, and their all-or-nothing decisions. They repelled some of the biggest contributors, to the point where they decided to create their own entire graphical stacks, just to avoid fighting the GTK. I don’t really understand the point behind their decisions

My mom got my XPS9350 i used to bring to uni, and at the moment, it has Fedora in it.

She repeatedly claimed it was a lot more straightforward for her to understand, compared to the endless inconsistencies and issues on Windows. All things considered, she is fairly tech illiterate too.

Plus it’s easy for me to remote into, in case something breaks

The original announcement isn’t even very long. Could you not have read it before leaving this comment?

I hate Elon just as much as the next guy, but pretending that this wasn’t a marvel of engineering is really disingenuous. People with intelligence beyond my comprehension made that a reality, and just because the company had his face on it, it doesn’t make it any less impressive

I use Gitlab, but i’m becoming increasingly more unhappy with it over time.

When i have enough resources run another local machine, im planning to switch to switch to Codeberg, with selfhosted Woodpecker CI instead

That’s the situation where i close the page, and add it to my blocklist permanently

Ah that’s probably why I couldn’t dig it up. Nixpkgs gets a ton of activity daily so this PR get buried haha.

Great to hear it’s already there
