Should I switch from #archLinux to #gentooLinux now, or wait until we definitively know what's going on with #systemd and #ageVerification before making that decision?

Maybe even a #linuxFromScratch base system running #flatpaks out the wazzoo?

Today marks seven days since I switched from Zorin 18 (which I liked very much) to openSUSE Tumbleweed.
Honestly? The name just felt like a sign... it aligns perfectly with my medicine routine 🌿 🥦 😂 lol

Jokes aside, I really like how it handles Flatpaks (sandboxed for the win!). Zorin 18 also worked great with Flatpaks and was generally much easier to set up in many ways, but it was time to try something else.

So far, so good!
I had to change a few settings, and the new terminal threw me off a bit at first, but now everything is working perfectly.

Still loving #bazzite as nearly six months comes around as a full time #linux user. After a few initial teething problems (mostly file system weirdness) it has been an almost flawless experience. Every game I have thrown at it has worked with only an old one even needing a proton version change and the mantra of going for #flatpaks and keeping the command line out of the way is definitely the way Linux should go to get more people to switch over. Props to #KDE for a fantastic desktop also. :-)

@chpietsch Ich weiß, ich auch! xD hahaha. Sprich für Nicht-Debian-Systeme: Die Sache ist die, die #Flatpaks werden leider nicht von Signal, sprich der Whisper Foundation, maintained. Btw funktioniert es auch unter Tails 7.2, macht sogar Updates.

✨ 💫 #Signal + #Tails == Win für Privacy und Security. ❤️ 💚 🙏

@rl_dane
- In my tower's #ArchLinux #KDEPlasma #Wayland boot, both #AnyDesk & #RustDesk work well for my r/a to dad's windoze pc.
- in my tower's newest [3rd] boot, #Fedora #Kinoite #Wayland, i simply could not get either of those to work properly, regardless of as #Flatpaks, via #Distrobox, or even layered atop the base system. However, happily, RD also comes as an #AppImage, which does work !!

note the above pertain to connections to dad's windoze pc only. otoh, my lappy also runs a Wayland DE, & it is impossible to connect to, afaict -- nothing i have tried works, coz Wayland on the remote pc seems to be an unsolved problem of r/a apps.

@jwcph @itsfoss You can use Warehouse by @Heliguy (thanks) to create snapshots and restore them on the other device - no terminal required! I used this to restore my #flatpaks with their data on a #Librem5 Linux phone after reflashing #postmarketOS.
