You could take a look at one of the universal blue distros next time you want to try some linux https://universal-blue.org/
I use bazzite on my gaming pc and bluefin on my laptop. It is immutable linux, but the devs made the defaults really nice (for me at least)
The first generation Hyundai Ioniq 5 had solar roof (at least some models).
The first gen ioniq 5 also had a very low payload capacity, with stories of families who couldn’t legally be in the car at the same time without being over the capacity.
The reason, I’m told, is that supporting the solar roof reduced the payload capacity a lot.
Also, solar cells on a car doesn’t make much sense like others have already said.
I use debian now for the first time in years. But the new version just released, so we’ll see how long it lasts
I would recommend using one of the distros backed by a big company or have very long track records. They are less likely to break on updates, and have a higher chance of supporting any uncommon hardware you may have.
If you have new hardware (e.g. GPU newer than 6 months) you will probably have issues. Follow the recommendations from the hardware supplier, or use something arch based. I used Manjaro a while when I got new hardware.
Besides those tips, you should decide which desktop environment you like best. I prefer gnome, as I enjoy to spend time in apps and not on in settings. Others prefer customization. Have a look at https://youtu.be/09cYQJBgKEs?si=KX8FZeMRcMlPTzG2
I tried it briefly, but it doesn’t/didn’t support disk encryption. For my laptop this is a must, so I’ll wait until it is implemented and out of alpha.
I use Debian + Gnome without custom extensions and like it.
I don’t use too many programs, so in the overview I have Firefox in position 1, signal in position 2 and steam in 3. Then I use Win+1,2,3 to launch them.
For other programs, I hit Win and then start typing the name and hit enter.
For switching between windows, i use alt-tab or alt-(key above tab). If I have many windows or playing game in full screen, I hit Win-key once and choose the window i want.
I don’t use workspaces, never found a good flow. And I rarely miss a taskbar.
I used yadm for a while and liked it. It is a git wrapper that makes git’ing your home folder for config files less messy
Now I don’t care so much for keeping settings anymore and use mainly vanilla settings, therefore I stopped using it
Actually I left 🫣🫣 After using it for a few years. I couldn’t get a hang of it on Android, and I ended up switching to caldav for tasks and markdown for notes.
Currently testing out https://silverbullet.md
I did enjoy orgmode for a long time, but I got too old for init.el …
Miniflux has grown on me https://miniflux.app/
I run it in docker and access from browser. It says it can automatically download the whole article. For me I have to hit download button each time, maybe I missed some configuration.
If you self-host services, I recommend it
When the first dinosaur bone was discovered, noone had heard about it before and people believed that bones they found before were from some animals
After people knew about dinosaurs they started finding them other places in the world at a rapid pace. Many people thought it was all a hoax
So you know, unless you know about them you don’t know what to report. And americans think most about aliens I guess.
That being said, probably there aren’t secret aliens around. probably 🫣
I don’t use multiple users or ldap, but miniflux supports many users. And based on this pull request it seems to have the necessary interface for ldap?

I enjoy and recommend miniflux for rss reading. I have used it for a long time now together with flux news android app. I also use save integration with wallabag sometimes.
