It’s very Maynard-coded

Always the egg.

I’ve never read this, and I don’t know if it’s even a song or a poem or what… and yet somehow, I get the feeling that they’re lyrics to a TOOL song.

I came here to say this… that shit is insane.

Right after? What year is it?

Plasma is KDE, it’s a desktop environment… So it would be comparable to “Cinnamon” or “MATE” for Linux Mint (I believe. I’ve never used Mint), not Fedora or Mint (which are distros).

You should be able to run Fedora with KDE and Wayland should work (unless it’s a hardware compatibility issue).

I used timeshift (plus timeshift-autosnap, and I think it was, timeshift-btrfs) for a couple of years on EndeavourOS, and it saved my ass on multiple occasions. Btrfs made it so the snapshots were iterative, and therefore only the first one is large.

Now I’m on Bazzite (loving it), and ostree has basically made snapshots obsolete.

I’ve been on Bazzite for a month or two now, and the experience has been fantastic. Still learning about ostree, and the quirks of immutable, but so far I’ve been loving it.

I went from EOS to Bazzite, and I can recommend both of them.

Just ignore the existence of proton, despite it being mentioned by name.

To be fair, Windows has its own jank. As someone who is forced to use Windows 11 for work, I’m much happier putting up with the minimum Linux jank I’ve experienced compared to the Windows jank.

If any of that made sense.

Good to know, thanks. If the FreeTube flatpak is working for me, I might as well try the Newpipe one if it’s that much better. I guess I just assumed that the translation layer would add CPU overhead.

I’ll have to look into Grayjay. Is there a flatpak? I’m on immutable, so flatpak is much preferred.

Cool. See my reply to that comment then.

So first off: This isn’t just about you. Other people read this, and your comment is just flat out wrong. I am typing this comment on my laptop, running Bazzite, using Mullvad VPN (that took me about 5 minutes to figure out how to install).

Second, I was literally just trying to help, why be a dick?

OK, and where did you say you used rpm-ostree? I was just trying to help… And not just you, but others. Because, as I said, I’m literally using Mullvad on Bazzite as we speak. Your comment was flat out false, and I felt the need to correct it…

I have no fucking idea how you could possibly brick hardware by trying to install an application… I never got anywhere close to doing anything that could have possibly had consequences like that.

It took me like five minutes to install Mullvad VPN on Bazzite.

I haven’t looked into rebasing yet… Is it really just as easy as entering the command and rebooting?

Have you used BoxBuddy? I know it’s not exactly a VM, but it could suffice depending on what you need it for.

Use rpm-ostree

FYI, this isn’t true. I’m on Bazzite and I’m currently using MullvadVPN and Mullvad browser.

You just need to use rpm-ostree to install it. I don’t remember the exact way I did it, but the documentation is out there. Just search for “silverblue” instead of bazzite. Or better yet, maybe even just “mullvad vpn fedora rpm-ostree” would probably get you in the right direction.

Edit: For the person who claims they bricked someone’s system while trying to install a vpn application… I don’t even know what to say. I would actually love to hear how that is even possible. Especially on an immutable distro… Do we have different definitions of “brick”?

I’ve been using it as my daily driver on my laptop for a couple of months, and I cannot recommend it enough. It has been running flawlessly.

I came from EndeavourOS. So it’s a big change from bleeding edge, to the insane stability of immutable, but I’m here for it.

And you always have BoxBuddy if there’s anything you can’t do because ostree, or if you only know how to do it in Arch (or whatever other distro).
