It’s had a few security issues in the past and last I heard they introduce a lag between packages going into the arch repos and things being available in Manjaro - even for critical security updates.

Bummer - sucks to lose a good server

If you are dehydrated from an illness typically something Gatorade or water with a bit of salt in it will help you hydrate better then just water.

What happened? Did the instance maintainer just get sick of running it?

I wonder if arm Linux laptops will become more of a thing.

I know Apple silicon has a lot more going on then just arm, but a Linux based device with that kind of efficiency to power ratio would be cool.

What does “experimental color management” mean? Is that HDR support?

Can anyone expand on that?

I read the original mastodon post by the developer of run0 and I am still don’t understand what the problem with SUID is.

Whats an example of an attack that would work with sudo and doas (which also uses SUID) and not on run0?

Are any major Lemmy or Mastodon instances in Fedi Garden?

I was looking through the site and didn’t see any instances I recognized but they also nest everything so it takes like 3 clicks to see 2 severs.

Edit: By type looks like the easier way to see the entire list, which is not huge and I don’t recognize any of the servers but I will admit I am not a big Mastodon person.

This is a good step but I still feel like it’s pretty obscure where a package is actually coming from. “by Google” or for the Steam package “by Valve” is really confusing and makes it sounds like it’s coming directly from the company. Unverified tells the user to pay attention but there is no hover over to say what it actually means.

Great detailed answer. One pedantic nitpick is the Apple typically supports Macs longer then 5-6 years, with the operating system getting security patches for a few years after the last one was released.

Their support cycle has been shorter lately because they seem pretty hell bent on phasing out Intel Macs.

I used to use Fluxbox back in the day, what’s the modern equivalent?

Yeah going to mine as well. I am both excited and a little scared. Some folks have reports some serious issues when upgrading so let’s hope the Tumbleweed folks sit on this until they feel it’s ready for general availability.

You know, I am fine with it. One of the reasons I am using Tumbleweed is for the additional testing they do, so if they aren’t cool with shipping it yet I can wait.

I saw, very exciting!

Man I really want to see that VRR patch merged in, even if it still takes a flag to turn on.

With KDE having VRR and now HDR it feels like the choice you have to make if you are gaming on Linux. I prefer Gnome generally so I would like to see them catch up.

Everyone seems shocked when Arch breaks but it’s been my experience with Arch as well. Literally on an old laptop I was basically using for web browsing I had Arch break several times randomly after updates. That was enough for me to give up on it.

Accusing the poster of astroturfing is extremely toxic and warrants revision on your part.

I liked Unity - they were doing so much customization to Gnome that it made sense for them to have their own DE.

Why would you ever think it was a meme distro? Red Hat has been around forever.

Using this right now. It’s been a little less stable then I’ve heard other people claim, I had about a day and half where I was consistently freezing up 5 minutes after login. After that was patched it has been fine.

The real test for me is if I can walk away from it for 3 weeks and update the system without the world exploding. That was what always broke Arch for me.

I haven’t used it personally but I’ve seen a lot of folks bad mouthing Manjaro.

Lots of complaints of instability and it being poorly run project. One of the more objective complaints I’ve read is they have a slower release process so security fixes take longer then Arch.
