same, there is only one reason to get Ubuntu over Debian, if you have a Nvidia gpu, they make it easy to just work.

But, if you don’t need cuda, I recommend an AMD gpu and stick with Debian or Fedora. It is trouble free.

PS: I will try immutable distros some day, pinky promise ^^

gnome-remote-desktop exists, but it isn’t as mature as xrdp. I am on Debian stable anyway and wait until it is ready. Locally I prefer Wayland and for RDP xrdp is still the better option in my opinion.

This is very nice. So far, the amount of motion on a Gnome desktop isn’t too much for me, but it is on the default iOS behaviour. I am glad that these options exists!

At home, I like that this is happening, but at work X11 is still needed for xrdp. I have tried gnome-remote-desktop, but it isn’t on par with it. I could not get it to work reliably on Debian 13.

Maybe, with the next stable release it will be ready and the X11-drop will be a non-issue.

Today, I am close to 1 and 5. Had a fairly nice day and everything went smoothly. Today I can afford to sit, watch and be funny. (:

I am just guessing: Could sector size have something to do with it?

And no, I wouldn’t trust it.

gnome-software, it can also tell you whether the app you want to install is available natively.

Yes, same here. That is why I read on Lemmy to inform myself in advance and reduce the amount of tabs.

I am in the 5 to 20 tab range depending on the solution I am searching for. At around 5 I usually use LLM to help me and cross-check with more searches. If it is longterm, I subscribe to related communities on Lemmy and interesting podcasts.

Regarding your question to virtualize Windows: Use virt-manager if it is just for you and Proxmox if you want to provide virtualized services. Certainly, you can use Proxmox just for yourself, it even works with nested virtualization if you want to learn things before commiting to additional hardware. I am there right now. Many more tabs will be opened to learn about Proxmox, I am sure.

I recommend Debian stable or Fedora if your aim is to get things done. NixOS is maybe a thing you can try out and learn about in a VM on Proxmox or with virt-manager.

Did you try the video editor of Blender? I did some of video editing with it. It can use ffmpeg for exporting and parallelization for composition.

Nice to read that more and more people are using btrfs on LUKS. I went for the debootstrap route from within a booted debian live iso to omit the debian installer entirely.

It is nice to read that PaperWM is usable again. I need the Gnome fearures, too.

How does OpenZFS to btrfs? Why choose it over btrfs? Is it all about the built-in encryption?

For a long time I considered Gentoo the best, because I know my things around there. A month ago I said goodbye to my last Gentoo installation in favour for Debian trixie (the next stable release). Gentoo was too time consuming despite the binary repo.

If it would be my job to maintain a Gentoo system I would gladly accept, but there should be a need for it by the users. Otherwise I would just recommend Debian stable or Fedora.

My favourite is Debian over Fedora, because I often don’t need the latest versions of a software. And there is flatpak.

In 5+ years, when I may have HDR on my desktop, Gnome will be more than ready. (:

I remember a time, when you have to wait for hardware support. But maybe monitors just aren’t the thing you buy every 2-5 years. Mine is more than 10 years old and very sufficient.

Were you able to free her?
