/dev/sdc now, since this morning... pic.

last year i initially plonked Kalpa on this SSD, then replaced it with KDELinux, then Kinoite. i recently made a moral decision to remove
​ from all my pooters, coz merkan [fuck trump!], & also apparently embracing the scourge of gen-ai, ugh.

/dev/sda, tower's original 2015 SSD, still has my 6.5 y/o ArchLinux on it, but for the past six or twelve months the bugger has been exasperating me with a spate of random system freezes that even defeat #REISUB, & so far has also defeated all my troubleshooting efforts. i'm frankly totes over it, & am now seriously considering possibly replacing it.

/dev/sdb is potentially gonna get another [or a replacement?] Arch, &/or SparkyTesting.

sadly though, for some of the now spare partitions across these three SSDs, i've been making numerous attempts over the last several days & nights to install various penguins that keep failing at the final stages of their installations, which is quite ...
disappointing 🥺

I'm disappointed, as a (primarily KDE Plasma) user, that #BudgieDesktop has decided to go with #qt6 over #EFL. What could they bring that #KDEplasma and #LXQt don't already?

There's also: Deepin, UKUI, SailfishOS, Lumina (I liked this one), Trinity DE (used to like it!), others possibly.

#EnlightenmentDE & #MokshaDE are great and they're the only ones -- nearly identical -- that are built upon EFL. It would've been really cool to see/use something quite a bit different built using those famously light foundations. It would add more diversity and perhaps the two smaller projects could provide more for one another in the long run.

State of the Budgie: 2025 In Review and Cranking Budgie Up To 11

2025 was a year of significant progress for Budgie Desktop, as we finalized much of our efforts in our Wayland migration, to bring Budgie 10 to a close and enable us to focus our efforts on Budgie 11. Time to dive into our State of the Budgie to recap our efforts in 2025 and the goals for 2026.

I gotta’ say, I dont think I’ve EVER been happier with a desktop environment than I am right now with Plasma 6.6.5. It does EVERYTHING I want it to do, and looks fantastic doing it.

Of course, I’m a hobbyist and not a gamer or someone who WORKS on their computer for a living, so YMMV, but this is just DE nirvana for me right here.

@thelinuxEXP Cool video! I installed some of the tools you highlighted, specifically Skanlite, Defuse, and Eloquent.

And alas, I, too, have had to disable my Plasma Global Menu…
