It’s funny, I’ve heard this so many times. And read through the docs. But I’m a mad lad who has auto updates (I know!) and have never had an issue with Immich.

While you’re at it consider using docker.

True of music too.

This is great but it would have to be pretty terrific to get me to replace Plasma.

All great recommendations here. But I’ve heard good things about PdfDing. I haven’t used it myself but have followed development since the developer is quite active.

I would say don’t overthink the distro. Just about any distro will provide nearly the same performance in gaming, some will just pre-install drivers that you could just install manually. Proton takes care of just about everything automatically anyways.

I enjoyed installing arch as it was a learning experience, and I learn more every time I install it on other machines. But Ubuntu would probably be just fine and has a ton of documentation, and a healthy community to provide support.

I think a lot of Linux newcomers get stalled on this choice because the options are overwhelming. There are so many choices. But at the end of the day once the installation is over, the experience will be almost the same as another distro with the same desktop environment.

If you want to run Linux, choose an distro that is easy to install and just dive into it. If you like tinkering with computers then you will love running Linux.

Why wait? Linux has never been better. I have tried to daily drive various distros for the better part of a decade and have just recently (about a year ago) settled in Arch and have never looked back.

Not what you’re asking about, but this guy was very inspirational for me wrt making latex diagrams easily.

Yeah I was just about to point that out for ya.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure a huge proportion of Lemmy users on the self hosting community run Linux, kind of a swing and a miss advertisement in these parts.

I know right. Elden Ring looks so damn good but there’s no way I can get into it at that playtime.

I dunno. I game less and less every year. I think I’ll probably just play the odd n64 game by the time I retire.

Makes sense. Thanks for the info!

Maybe it hasn’t been fully implemented yet but when I play HDR videos in MPV right now it is still not working. But running that command works as expected.

Couldn’t you already do this using the command below? (Under “video”)

No hate, but I laughed out loud when I read distraction free and saw that the first screenshot shows an embedded browser.

Like, I get that there is value in having an embedded browser but if it’s there then I would not consider the editor to be distraction free.

What’s wild to me is that after making over 10b in a few months Google still has the gall to want to squash ad blocking. How much more money do they want? To what end?

I think it’s ctrl click for right click. Command click is for selecting multiple files.

Ctrl + click!

It was my first Mac and first computer that was just mine.

Boy I pushed that thing to the limits. Ended up frying the video card. While I loved it, it was just so so weak.
