users running the old X11 session needs to manually install plasma-x11-session, or they will not be able to login
You’d think Plamsa would just offer a fallback to log into a Wayland session instead of completely failing.

Discord is just a website.
sadly, there are a lot of important newer x86 patents that are still years off
Basic x86_64 in hardware and software emulation of extensions is a more viable path than full x86 emulation on ARM. What we don’t know if anybody is working on independent x86_64 CPUs.
x86_64 patents lapse sometime this year, btw
Are the desktop components now finally fully localized?
CLA and copyright assignment are different things. In some jurisdictions copyright assignment is impossible. That was among the clashes European FOSS contributors had with the Free Software Foundation and Richard Stallmann in the 1990s and 2000s.
MIT license already allows this, with or without CLA.
That’s why you can also take Microsoft’s MIT code and make proprietary software out of it.
No, Windows has various subsystems. This one is for Linux.
When Windows NT 3.5 launched, it came with subsystems for POSIX, OS/2, and Win32 because in the WinNT world even the Windows frameworks are a subsystem. Disclaimer: I didn’t check if in Win11 this is still the case but I guess so.
At least they disable the monetization features of Brave but making stupid Google Meet such a hard requirement to compromise of all ethics? WTF?
Just get rid of everything Nvidia. Problem solved.
Why are you even using flatpak if its core usecase offends you?
All power to you. Take your time and feel free to announce it properly to the whenever you’re ready.
My completely non representative opinion is that a WebKitGTK browser that works well and feels fine across desktops is a niche looking to be filled.
Probably too bare bones for what I would look in a web browser, though. Still refreshing to see someone with a WebKitGTK browser not mimic Gnome Web.
Is it a “traditional” web browser or yet another Gnome header bar app?
Osmand is slow
Yeah, rendering speed is atrocious. Organic Map renders much smoother.
You still need a HDR-capable screen.
it makes sense, now, why Valve would choose KDE for the Steam Deck (which has a touchscreen).
I like my Steam Deck but I must be honest here: Desktop Mode, which is Plasma 5 and not the latest 6.x release, is trash on that touch screen. It just a shrunken regular desktop. You can use some environment variables to affect a few QtQuick applications but the results are mixed. There are KDE applications what are designed for mobile but don’t even consider the possibility of anything but portrait screen orientation. SteamOS doesn’t ship with a proper Maliit keyboard, it’s just Steam’s built-in one which never pops up automatically outside of Steam and Steam games.
Plasma 5 on that tiny screen isn’t enjoyable at all. It kinda, sorta works but I’m happy the touch pads exist.
It’s kinda funny that as a seasoned Linux user, I never had to edit fstab for years. I just use Gnome Disks if I need automount or format a USB drive.
LucidNightmare tries artificially complicated ways for niche use cases instead of going the straightforward path and then complains all the time how bad Linux isn’t for average users, as if those would meddle with network drives, disk partitions, etc. at all.
A fall back of “kwin_x11 not found, let’s boot into kwin_wayland instead” is an upstream thing.
