Opening the phone to other app stores is just the first step. The second is letting the user choose an app store when they first start their phone similarly to how they already enforce browser choice.
Yeah… no, they already have access to all that. It’s the good ol’, if it’s gonna happen anyways might as well get behind it and get some good PR.
They also stay pretty current with the kernel and many other packages.
I guess that’s better than nothing, that doesn’t make it a rolling release though. It’s an unstable point release that got half-stuck in the past until they get their cosmic shit together.
Tried the iso in a VM, gnome is still very much on version 42. They obviously abandoned shop to focus all their resources on their shiny new DE.
Hard to recommend a distro that hasn’t seen a new release in over 3 years.
I’ve installed fedora thrice last year, and each time, I’ve had to enable rpm fusion in the terminal and download ffmpeg to get youtube to work. This is something that can’t be fixed afaik, because it’s a copyright issue.
At some point you need start cutting stuff or nothing happens and you’re the one still maintaining the 32 bit packages 15 years later.
There’s plenty of different solutions, but anything that isn’t what people already have is gonna upset.
It’s one of those changes that will happen sooner or later, bazzite and steam need to figure out a solution because fedora, and other modern distros can’t and won’t keep dragging around 32 bit libraries forever.
Fedora doesn’t enable non free repositories by default, and that’s a big deal for new users. Telling someone they need to run commands in the terminal to get their nvidia drivers, or even get youtube working is a problem.
Even if it’s out of beta for 26.04, you’ll probably want to wait a few releases before giving it a go. It’s bound to be quite unstable for a few years.
I don’t know much myself, check the fedora thread where they go into more details.
low-effort
People always underestimate the work that goes into making sure stuff works. These packages need to be built so they add a lot of compile time to the pipeline, these packages have limitations inherent to 32 bits so they also add troubleshooting and bugs. This is time and resources that could be spent elsewhere.
Apparently there’s a few problems with the flatpak version, like you can’t run gamescope or start a steam big picture session.
That’s not the point, dxvk isn’t gonna get used at all if the game is running dx12 or native vulkan.
Hey, you brought it up.
So, why are you friendly to Epic?
Kids have plenty of ways to get access to lootboxes that aren’t gated by a credit card, not to mention these games tend to blur the line for paid lootboxes by giving “free” in game premium currencies. Most of these games are fully aware it’s a kid playing, they just turn a blind eye because it profits them.
This whole personal responsibility is the same shit that the plastic industry has managed to pull, they are the ones doing it and they are the ones profiting from it, the responsibility is on them to make sure kids aren’t playing their games.
They set the 70$ price point and they set the gamepass price, it’s all abstract values that they decide. That’s price anchoring at play, you think you’re getting a good deal in comparison, so of course you get the gamepass, but no matter which product you buy, microsoft wins.
