Man, it really sucks to find out that even on this site, there’s still people who get upvotes for saying that people like me are something to be “cured”

because the package build script isn’t available?

What are you talking about? Every Flatpak on Flathub has their build manifest available on GitHub, you can fork or download it for yourself and change it how you’d like, just like you can with an Arch PKGBUILD

And the problem still isn’t solved because now the people who can set bad defaults still exist, they’re just different people.

For one, unlike with distro packages, lots of Flatpaks are made by the developers of their apps, so bad defaults aren’t really going to be a thing for those since the developer would want to choose what’s best for their own app

And for packages maintained by a third party, bad defaults are less common because maintainers don’t need to account for each individual distro’s unique package situation or specific dependency versions, and only have to package it once for every distro

Nah I don’t want to use a distro that’s permanently outdated lol

The Pixels keep going up in price, fuck off Google

Its the only DE with good, seamless fingerprint support for example

What do you mean? I’ve never had a problem with it on KDE, Fedora at least

Huh? It does work lol, there’s flatpak uninstall --unused --delete-data (and you can also pass --delete-data when uninstalling individual Flatpaks, to be more selective), this is just someone’s new GUI app to do the same thing, and you could already do it through KDE Discover for example

I have Fedora on an old Lenovo Chromebook, the on-by-default btrfs compression goes a long way on that 16GB eMMC

HoloISO is essentially a version of Valve’s SteamOS 3 repackaged to run on systems other than the Steam Deck, since Valve hasn’t released a general-purpose one yet

People generally use it so that they can get as close to the Steam Deck’s user experience as possible, though most people usually agree that a more standard desktop distro is a better idea unless you’re using console-like device entirely for gaming

Why do you think it would? Oracle rebranding RHEL and selling it as their own distro in direct competition with Red Hat is no doubt the biggest reason they made this change in the first place

Funny considering that AlmaLinux OS Foundation is a non-profit

He’s clearly talking about Oracle though? Like, that’s almost certainly why Red Hat is doing what they’re doing, rather than specifically targeting Alma/Rocky, because Oracle Linux is a paid competitor that does exactly what he describes
