  • Unfortunately the snap argument may have merit after all. Some companies have dropped support for it and are all in on flatpak. I’ve run into several cases where something was available on flathub but not the snap store. And considering gnome, kde, and most new devs are all in on flatpak, someone would be really missing out on some great apps that make life easier if they only had snaps.

    Not only that but Ubuntu has really diverged in other areas as well they may only show up later like choosing LXD over podman. People should just get an experience that is closest to SteamOS for maximum compatibility and support atp. Putting someone on Ubuntu I think is like orphaning them.


  • I’ve found that is shifting a bit as a lot of newer hardware needs kernel support, and as new people with newer devices enter the linux world they can encounter issues. I know I’ve had to wait for feature to make it to the kernel before I got it for some newer hardware. It can be frustating especially if it’s something essential or realky desirable. Even more so if you aren’t tech savvy.


  • I’m ngl after reading that I somewhat understand the concept, but the specifics are completely lost on me. They spent that whole interview talking about problems with colonialism (which is important don’t get me wrong), but very little time on the actual topic. I still don’t really know what indigenous geography actually is. The way he describes feels more like a mindset thing to encourage mindful behavior than like an actual field of study. Maybe I just need more context.
