OK, correction accepted. I probably did conflate them with Broadcom. Someone should let those ubuntu folks know though… ;)

I’m sorry for leaving out the word “desktop”. I’m well aware that Android runs the Linux kernel and that many embedded systems run Linux.
Possibly I conflated them with Broadcom, but I feel sure I recall Qualcomm’s lack of openness being problematic in the past also.
Edit - yeah, folks jumping through hoops for their wifi at least as recently as Ubuntu 20.04. https://askubuntu.com/questions/1277359/my-qualcomm-atheros-qca9377-wireless-adopter-is-not-working-in-ubuntu-20-04-lts
When did Qualcomm start giving a shit about Linux? They’ve been on my “hardware and chipsets to avoid if possible” list for pretty much ever.
2007 was YOTLD for me. Yours, dear Windows-using reader, is 2024, if you want it to be.
Hey KDE Team: 😘 ❤️ Please don’t ever change!
Thank you this looks interesting!
I wish I could just go 10 minutes without using terminal.
As someone who prefers using the terminal for many common tasks, it’s hard for me to imagine what is forcing you to the terminal that often.
Seriously. What would be surprising is if they were not. Proprietary System gonna Proprietary System.
This looks super cool, but I’ve been using midnight commander for so so long.
Edit: the linux-company thing is just for triggering people, sorry I didn’t know it was this effective.
Heh it really was wasn’t it? Been on Linux for near to twenty years now and I’m still surprised to see it. :D
Clearly it worked for some.
I think it clearly worked for you.
Looks to me like a little joke buried in a sincere post. You can make more out of it if you want, but I think you’re being a little bit curmudgeony.
Nothing against Fedora, but generally I’d steer a noobie to mint or popos before Fedora. It has been some time since I tried Fedora (years) but not very long since I’ve seen someone complaining about dependency/repo issues (which is where I always ran into problems with Fedora eventually)
Having said that, folks who don’t run Arch tend to say it breaks far more often than it actually does, so my opinion on Fedora may be just as uninformed. (I don’t run Arch BTW, but I do run a derivative.)
make me feel like I must be the only person in the world who hasn’t had major issues with KDE and it’s been absolutely flawless lately, specially since 5
There’s dozens of us! (kidding, it’s clear in recent years it’s way more than that, and I’m happy to see it.)
If folks are happy with how GNOME does things… I’m happy for them.
I think screenfetch came first, but I’m sure it’s fine if you like it. I’m using fastfetch.
Oh no, what will all the Arch users do?
Install one of many alternatives already present in the repos or AUR?
I’m using fastfetch. Also recommended is hyfetch.
Ah makes sense, thanks for the additional info!
Any chance it’s hardware dependent? First I’m hearing of this and I just toggled it off and on to be sure I wasn’t seeing things - mine is definitely working. I’m all-Intel FWIW.
I have servers on Digital Ocean and Linode and also one in my basement, and have had no problem. I do have all services behind NPM (not to suggest it’s a panacea) and use HTTPS/SSH for everything. (not to suggest HTTPS/SSH are either) My use case could be different than yours - my immediate family are my only consumers - but have been running the same services in those locations for a few years now without issue.
