I agree, but then again, neither Windows nor MacOS tell you where their file paths are. It’s not like Windows tell you where AppData is. They don’t even show file extensions by default.

That said, there are quite a few Youtube videos explaining about Linux file paths.

I don’t know whether the same would apply to GNOME, but perhaps it could be. Perhaps there were specific packages for configuring color, but I also never used GNOME so I couldn’t attest to that.

This is by no means exclusive to KDE, though. Notifications and media control does work on other desktop environments as well (at least it does on XFCE), though media control has to be done inside the KDE connect app.

This post seems to work well, given that it has remained in the active tab for days now with the sheer people commenting on it.

You can always change the font on your ebook reader. I know Calibre has the option.

Perhaps the required KCM (KDE configuration module) for that is not installed in your system. That did happen to me in my minimal Debian setup.

I don’t really remember the name of the package, though. I think it was kscreen, but I might be wrong.

This is the blog post that details KDE’s plan to remove X11. The linux experiment, as far as I know, also mentioned it in his linux open source news videos.

I had to install X11-session for KDE, after switching to that it works fine again.

Unfortunately, KDE is planning to remove X11 session entirely around 2027, so if the problem still persists then it might be wise to find another distro or stick with old KDE versions.

Personally, I have XFCE installed alongside KDE for running programs that are buggy on Wayland (which was few and far in-between). Otherwise, my hardware supports Wayland well (as it only has Intel integrated graphics anyways).

Emphasis mine. Wow, only 2 GiB…

That’s not as low as you’d think, to be fair. I’ve tried to run Kubuntu on a 10 year old laptop with 2 GiB RAM and it worked, if only a little laggy. That being said, it crashes after half an hour without swap. But with swap, it is legitimately daily drivable (as long as you don’t run heavy apps, of course).

I’d imagine a distro that’s designed to be even more lightweight would be able to handle that.

I agree, but I also know that there are many people with an eye of design and there are other alternatives.

But Markor is my favorite app, especially because it can edit .md files from the filesystem (kinda like Obsidian for mobile but FOSS)

…or are furries (though, they are surprisingly rare here)

Nah, software update is like people in another way:

When you have been anticipating an update because you’ve seen the features it would add, and you know the updates are rarely problematic, then you get very excited to get them (this is how I feel about GIMP 3.0 update).

But when the update is forced (because the app forces you to update before opening it or if you’re just straight up forced to install it), and it frequently breaks stuff, then that’s mood.

Markor - A markdown/text editor app. It is frankly not the best in terms of design, but it does have quite a few neat features.

Just wish that firefox Android supports “right clicking” extensions, though.

Right now, extensions that use the right-click context menu to function (e.g. Singlefile) doesn’t work that well on Android.

I’ve also found another client for Android: syncthing tray, which seems to come from a popular client for desktop but it also supports Android.

Personally, I find it a good replacement, though its gui is slightly slower and it does not support all the features that syncthing-fork has.

Nah, they’re not just using regular lasers. They use the sun.

Note that you can disable the hibernate shutdown (called fast startup) in windows in the control panel. IIRC it’s in control panel > startup > fast startup.

I mean, it could be. Intel integrated graphics don’t generally need additional drivers. That said, I have run KDE on stock Kubuntu and Debian and (outside of minor glitches, ofc) rarely had a problem.

From my experience, KDE can run well even on older computers. I have used KDE with only 2GB ram, a 10 year old dual-core Intel Celeron CPU, and an integrated GPU, and it runs rather well, if only a little laggy here and there. Of course, XFCE runs much better with that setup, though.

Not really a website with custom domain, but Anuken’s Personal Website is kinda funny, even more so when you realize this cat is the developer of the famous open-source game Mindustry
