Kitty. Fast (GPU-accelerated), Wayland-compatible, and has a built-in image viewer, among other things.
Very intrigued by OpenSUSE as an alternative to Fedora. How do you think the two stack up against each other? Is it a noticeable leap switching between them?
I am truly sorry to hear this. As a longtime Vim user, I cannot thank Bram enough for his massive contribution to software development and for his kindness. His legacy will live on, not only in Vim, but in all the communities he selflessly supported for so many years.
The internet is in a real sorry state nowadays, there’s no denying that. Analytics and marketing have thoroughly trumped functionality and accessibility.
Best way I’ve found to work around all this crap (other than just browse the internet less, depressingly) is through Pi-Hole, uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger installed in every browser. Mobile is trickier but Firefox/Brave mobile get the job done as they do allow plugins so I can run uBlock there too and enable the cookie banner filter.

The
x.comdomain was originally purchased by PayPal for over $8m back when Elon was still at the company. No one knows how much PayPal asked Elon for it back in 2017 when he bought it from them, but it was rumoured to be an eight digit figure.
You could use either systemd timers or anacron, which is a version of cron designed for laptops and machines that are not powered on 24/7 like servers.
Being able to easily run a NixOS Wayland graphical environment on a Raspberry Pi 4. Petty and small thing I know but I’ve sunk quite a few hours setting this up and haven’t got very far with it 😮💨
Like what? Have you got any examples?
Fedora because it’s robust, stable, mature and has a fairly up-to-date package repository. Plus, it has spins (ISO flavours) with different DEs/WMs installed, including i3 and even Sway!
If you want a Linux distro that just works and gets out of the way, Fedora is for you. I’ve been using it for years now and see no reason to switch.
Btrfs. It was the default filesystem already when I used Fedora on both my personal and work laptops. Not a single problem. It is true I don’t really make much use of most of its advanced features like snapshotting, CoW, etc., but I also didn’t notice any difference whatsoever in stability compared to ext4 so I’m pretty happy with it as my new default.
