u just need kde, as hitting ‘get new widgets’ in da widgets sidebar uses the same backend, meow

so u just need to search for catwalk in there :3

wayland is great, unfortunately: nvidia

for more touchscreen usage,pop!_os

otherwise, kubuntu or some other kde de distro

it seems to hav wonky timestamp ? it appears to me to be sent -21s ago XP

hehe X3 (u can just look in my bio lmao )

oh sorry i use cat sounds in my replies X3 mrrp is a cat trill

i always think a snapshot system is a good idea and tbh i always thought stable just meant only little bugs got thru. stable stuff isnt immune to pebkac and config breakages >w<

yeh i think is a more advanced linux distro cuz of the no hand holding defaults it has mrrp >w< but honestly while u are right, that stability≠reliability, it does tend to correlate in my experience (tho my current arch install has been going the longest out of all my installs XP).

debian to me is one of the endgame linuxes, as in its what more experienced users will end up with mrow. imo it really isnt a good intro to linux aand tbh i would almost put it next to arch in terms of beginners probably shouldnt start with it mrrp

ubuntu just kinda sucks as a linux now imo, esp for new users

great list !! meowz theres nothing i can think of that u missed so well done :3

the gentoo wiki is also a great resource !!

wayland seems to be the way desktop linux is going, personally i like it and am migrating over w plasma 6, but ymmv mrowz

for global search i would recommend rofi-wayland !

overall, my best advice is to steal, mix n match others configs (make sure to keep track and source them tho !) and find what u like best, if ur only starting dont try and do everything from scratch !!

if u want a notification system, i use dunst :3

meow id love to see activities turn into whats described at the end of the blogpost atm is a bit half finished feature ime

if youre opening ur laptop from suspend or hibernate id look there first, i dont think itd be a nix specific issue, though there may be an option in kde to pause media when thd lock screen is visible idk >w<

you could also check if ur webbrowser has an option like that too (if ur on jellyfin via a browser)

yay a flower :3

ive heard reallygood things about hyperland + its docs !

personally, i use qtile cuz its config is in python with p managable docs, and it comes with its own barebones bar + launcher!

although on my main i do have plasma n bismuth, but thats not for serious twm stuff dp ymmv there

owo

my take is that you really cant get big compnies to port to linux in the way he describes, and a lot of linux users wont use it anyway cuz its not foss

also afaik cosmic isnt just gnome in rust? its more like a realised knome (mix of kde and gnome, april fools 202x)

big companies will move with userbase, and cosmic being developed wont hurt the userbase growth of desktop linux. jeez that last part about foss evangelists just like no

honestly this man just seems a bit fustrated by not having a latest popos release?

also : people create clones of software all the time, not just in foss projects

overall, id say i dont really agree with him. imo cosmic is fine and the big companies really arent that interested anyway, i don’t think giving them money will help tbh, id much prefer foss alternatives being given funding

im honestly wondering why there are ai images in this article? they don’t contribute anything id prefer screenshots instead to actually see relevant stuff - like with the line about garuda’s ui. otherwise a pretty ok article

probably bc wofi may be in more repos n package managers afaik, seems like a popularity issue for rofi-wayland more than a more conscious decision to not recommend it

Elisa for when i want my whole music library (it is a bit lacking in features tho), audacious w/ winamp classic skin (_vibes) when im just playing files on my kde plasma box, and cmus on my qtile setup :3 also sicmuplayer on android cuz its the best

hey u sound a bit angy, is everything allgoods?
