On the lock and login screens, The clock and interactive UI elements are now only shown on one screen at a time when using a multi-screen setup; they fade out on screens without the pointer or keyboard focus, leaving those screens free to display pretty wallpapers. (Yifan Zhu, link 1 and link 2)

Best and smartest implementation ever

System Settings’ Display Configuration page gained some UI Improvements; now the screen arrangement view is hidden when there’s only one screen, and with more that one, there’s a big obvious screen chooser at the top of the page to make it clear which screen is selected, and when there are any disabled but connected screens.

I don’t know how I feel about this one. I feel like the top chooser is redundant since you can already click on the monitors icons.

This is the most accurate description I can think of.

Where is openshift in this?

I’ve posted something similar a couple of days ago after my Endeavour OS took a dump to no return and I needed a reinstall. I, too, want a system where I set it and forget it. I’ve researched so much and now I have two things I’m experimenting with. I’m currently running Nobara OS (because I play games here and there) as an experiment to see how long it lasts without breaking. I have backed up everything.

Its users swore up and down that it never breaks if you’re not a “tinkerer”. Even its creator said that the distro isn’t for those who like to tinker. His goal was to have a distro that is as stable as an immutable, but not immutable itself.

So far, I like how it tries so hard to keep you away from the terminal. There is a GUI app for everything. Even their updating process is different than Fedora (which is what it’s based on). The developers are even planning on making something for upgrading between major releases that is a press of a button like they do with their updates through an app. So far so good.

My next experiment after this (if it fails) will be to run an immutable distro. Most likely Bazzite. They’re not my cup of tea, but I’ll sacrifice that for my sanity and for the sake of getting shit done.

No worries. Thank you for posting the video. I don’t have Mastodon or peertube unfortunately

That’s really cool, man. Glad you’re enjoying Linux. I love the connection you have with the people who are making all of this available for us at no cost. Make sure you donate to the tools that benefit you daily so we can help the good people who make them pay their bills.

It’s apple (I think Macintosh specifically) in Japanese

Love Nick’s videos

That sound issue on windows (along with the brightness not working on laptops) has been on windows for as long as I’ve known windows 10. Sometimes a reboot fixes it, and others it’d never be fixed no matter what you did until you reinstalled. Welcome to Linux. It won’t be perfect, but it’s going to be fun

I’m currently experimenting with Nobara. I’ll drive it for a while and see how things go. After that, I’m thinking of Bazzite.

No worries. Thank you

I’ve actually installed and enabled grub-btrfs. So now all of the snapshots that I make through timeshift will show in grub next to those kernel rollbacks. Also, I tried to download Bazzite today and the download was awfully slow it was showing 1.5 hours and then it fails the first 10 minutes every time. I gave up. I’m going to try to download it later and see

Awesome and good to know. I’m actually experimenting with distros to see where this takes me. I’m currently running Nobara with snapshots set up in grub. It also has other kernels entries in grub after big updates so you can roll back if things break.

Sounds so annoying to do honestly :/
I’ve just installed Nobara and will give it a whirl for a while and see how it goes.

I get that, but sometimes I need dependcies or packages that I can’t get as flatpaks. Like today, I wanted to install a driver (or whatever it is) that’s called “ntfs-automount” and it needs to be built from source with

sudo make install

And that I couldn’t do on an immutable distro. And it is not available anywhere except the AUR and GitHub.

So, when you install things with rpm-ostree, will whatever I install stick, or will it be overridden whenever the system updates?

Lmfao. Exactly

I wanted to build “ntfs-automount” from source and I wasn’t able to do it on distrobox

Bazzite download was showing 1.5 hours and kept failing to download 😂
