Mr. Crow posted:Fedora is great just make sure you enable rpm fusion repos and on the greeter select x11. Wayland might be alright for and GPUs but boy howdy is it still terrible for nvidia. i heard that wayland + nvidia works better with fedora 35 (might have even been itt) but havent really looked into it yet

Packages can stay broken in Debian testing for a really long time. I don't recommend it unless you very specifically want to help beta test the next stable release. mycophobia posted:testing's still on a really old version of firefox. both ubuntu and fedora crossed the "weird random poo poo happening" tolerance threshold pretty early on that debian stable never has for me in a couple of years of use so i'd like to stick to it as much as possible, and by that logic i see no real reason to move to testing. i downloaded the tar.bz2 file from mozilla and unzipped it in /opt and im just gonna go with that Any reason you've got so much resistance against snaps/flatpaks? I don't like using them for some things b/c containerization gets in my way. But I don't ever interact with the browser from the rest of the OS besides downloading and uploading files. Snapped spotify, snapped firefox, even snapped retroarch has been good to me.

mycophobia posted:im going to be honest and say i dont really know anything about these container format things. i use an appimage for avidemux which is cool The main thing to know is that if you are most concerned about browser security, snaps/flatpaks add extra security over unzipping to opt. The browser will run in a sandbox, you'll get the latest updates, and there's a better chance dependencies won't have vulnerabilities. IDK much about appimage these days, but it's the same idea as old appimage except it uses kernel features to better protect your system from vulnerable or poorly packaged software. I only compile software I want or need to have full access to my system anymore. If I need the latest version of something I use snap.

the one thing I cannot figure out is how the rfuck k8s in the tayool 2022 still doesn't support swap (ok I just looked and it's an alpha feature)

I have no idea how they have convinced people that their product, which totally dumps decades of investment and research in memory management, is ready for prime time and I say this as someone who runs k8s in production
