Yeah, I already can’t decide between keeping Innertune or RiMusic (needs some tweaks but after you customize it is great)

It isn’t really a privacy alternative yet. They are open source and can be audited, they are implementing E2EE for DMs and Chats (Discord has for DMs). If Revolt gets the E2EE right they pass to be an interesting alternative.

If there is one thing to criticize is the need to install Gnome Software. I’d prefer that this was available in the KDE Discover.

Ok, Dolphin would be the comparative here from KDE Qt but, since is made for GTK probably Nautilus is the one to be compared.

Well, do you prefer kitty or yazi?

what about Ente? It has E2EE encryption that immich doesn’t have and can be self hostable like immich. Never used both so I’m just asking

Nothing against the project but the price seems a bit salty. $367 for a WiFi 6 router!?

The procedure is much hassle free than it looks. Keeping the secure boot on enrolled is a good practice. I read recently that Fedora was approving the sign automatically to be part of the gnome-software. So things may become even easier soon.

For Fedora you can follow the RPM Fusion documentation or have a look to this guide

Is this available in KDE?

I’d use a Steamdeck mini if was available. The current size for my needs makes me classify it as a non-portable. Hope the next version they have a smaller variant along with the larger one.

the Switch is a bit lighter

The Steamdeck needs an alternative version smaller and lighter. Hopefully we see a variant like this in the future releases

Maybe a laptop with a very good CPU and an eGPU? You can get it from Aliexpress.

Very good write up. If I not agree with all, I probably agree with most that is in here. On the DE section, I think we should help drive the beginner choice. In the recent past, KDE and Gnome were the early adopters of Wayland and the ones introducing the new features. They are also the choice of most distros. Therefore, I’d recommend one of those two.

I’d open a new section worth of scrutinies, dedicated about security. I believe it may worth advising that as a criteria of selection is recommended to not use distros that freezes regular releases for more than 1 year in desktop installations. Like is explained here. At least in your first distro selection. Advise about restricting privileged access with SELinux or AppArmor. Perhaps, also add a note about secure boot as well and some guide of how to harden your installation, Madaidans, Privacy Tweaks, PrivSec and PrivacyGuides.

I installed it from F-Droid back on December last year. This post is kinda of inaccurate.

That is a reminder that I should donate to the project. The instance that I joined is up and running.

Not challenging, what good open source games do we have so far?

Where is the rest? =[

Mihon seems good in case you were using Tachiyomi since you can import the library

Uber? What do you use for rides?
