Old is stability
  • It will be isolated in its own directory, as I said I think distrobox.it+neon+, own home will be a far better solution of course. I keep hearing Flatpak is adding snap-like deeper features so I wondered how far it went. About the KDE 6 being unstable: I think they wanted to ship something out and for people preferring stability, 5.x LTS will be there for a long time.

  • Old is stability
  • I mean as you can use far newer KDE applications on Debian stable via Flatpak, it may serve the same purpose contained in a separate tree without changing the core OS.

    I guess distrobox+neon would work fine yes. I just wondered the state of Flatpak with the recent changes.

  • Old is stability
  • I understand it won't be trivial but I wonder if, theoretically, a team can ship & maintain a KDE 6 "flatpak" or "snap"

    I mean in technical terms, not that they would with the non technical mistakes Ubuntu keeps doing.

  • wth, that was really annoying
  • Really weird thing is, distros and flathub kinda pushes users to do system wide installs while most of the packages can work and get updated per user. They are pushing the thing which made Windows almost impossible to use without an administrator user. A dramatic example would be gnu guix, almost never requires root for updates or installs. It is also usable by normal users. From GNU... :-)

  • Partitioning Your Linux Drives: Does It Provide Any Benefits?
  • First of all you can check distrobox.it which can basically run Neon inside your distribution however you better set a different virtual home for neon in that case.

    I would first tar the .steam to be on the safe side but steam is different, it is some kind of Ubuntu stable itself residing in that directory. Not a big time gamer but people laughed at Ubuntu for shipping its snap because of it.

    Long story short I don't think steam would have issues. I meant not to expect KDE guys to revert upgraded preferences back to KDE5 etc. You know they do such things and blame Linux/KDE etc.

  • still waiting
  • If you use a rolling/half rolling release like Tumbleweed/Fedora, Nouveau is pretty usable and it progresses. That is unless you are a gamer or do AI stuff. It is Nvidia who had to provide an open source driver to their customers. I don't think Nvidia customers figure they are customers, not beggars as they don't demand it. That even includes governments and the military.

  • Partitioning Your Linux Drives: Does It Provide Any Benefits?
  • A separate /home can save you hours or even days in several occasions however don't try crazy things like trying to have KDE of Ubuntu share same theme/settings with KDE6. A /var on a fast drive can create wonders too.

  • Are there any Windows-exclusive programs you use?
  • Unsurprisingly it is the gigantic EA application which breaks Sims 4 most of the times. It crashes, Steam notices non zero exit and gives up.

    EA isn't so managed so they don't even reach MS to stop pushing alpha/beta updates to stable version of their apps via Winget. So you can guess how much they will care about Linux issues. I mean Steam guys won't really hack their binaries to fix it so it is up to them.

  • Reddit’s IPO Filing Shows Lots Of Losses After Nearly 20 Years
  • I think I have read this suggestion at Reddit: "Make people who wants to use API as clients pay. " The app doesn't have to have API key, user pays a very reasonable money to access Reddit with their favourite application. Obviously it would come with sane for human browsing limits and AI leechers should pay millions.

    Just like a plain old radio station where you can access from web page for free but you need to subscribe for better AAC, high quality streams and standard VLC support.

  • Reddit’s IPO Filing Shows Lots Of Losses After Nearly 20 Years
  • You know the very credible sounding theory that Musk bought Twitter to drown it. He used Middle Eastern funds etc. and those people owning these gigantic funds had nightmares because Twitter made it so easy to organise mass unrest. I want to believe this crazy sounding theory since other option would be someone having such a capital, know how and influence is that dumb.

    What if this is just a plot to kill Reddit? While crypto bros polluted it a lot, it was very similar with Twitter. Freedom of speech, diversity. It may have bugged people.

  • Reddit’s IPO Filing Shows Lots Of Losses After Nearly 20 Years
  • What is the term for people who do buy things on your behalf and get their cut no matter what happens? Market manipulators have such connections.

    Obviously these people providing the service are crooks and criminals so they can do anything. It isn't like you will call the police :-)

  • Reddit Is Letting Power Users In on Its IPO. Not Everyone’s Buying
  • Say a negative thing about Brave or any of alt right hate campaigns against anyone who likes diversity. They will keep down voting whatever you post/comment and insane things happen. E.g. 2 comments supporting the same idea in the same post scoring +20 and -20. The best thing to do against is not to be there at the first place. People who think they are highly technical, nerd, bright or have elite taste shouldn't work for Spez, for free.

  • Reddit Is Letting Power Users In on Its IPO. Not Everyone’s Buying
  • I am not American tax payer but what does American government and independent organisations do regarding influencers are being bribed to help a high profile IPO?

    E.g. a user will have 200K+ karma and thousands of followers and will get pre IPO share. So, will "duckyduck" will sure sit on a corner and will never try to benefit his stock? They won't post to wall street bets? Because of ethics?

  • [Feature Request] This platform have extensive use of positive and negative votes

    I think Boost should show both positive and negative scores on posts, comments. On this platform it matters.

    BTW unlike the populist, commercial platform you can't really censor whatever you don't agree. Which is a good thing.
