@s
yeah if it's straight up freezing to the point of needing a hard power down, that's usually a deeper driver or graphics pipeline crash rather than just a simple lockscreen bug. disabling auto lock is probably the smartest temporary fix so you can actually get work done without the compositor dying on you.

KDE Frameworks 6.27 is officially dropping fixes for KRunner and Breeze. This is exactly why we chose to build the underlying architecture for #lucentOS and #fijiOS straight on top of the modern Fedora and KDE Plasma 6 stack. Upstream moves incredibly fast, and we handle translating that raw performance into an uncompromised, zero-telemetry environment. 🚀🛠️

Ever since I left Adobe #Lightroom in mid-2025, I’ve been using #digiKam from #KDE for #digitalassetmanagement

I find it quite a good #FOSS to manage my extensive library of photographs (+100k images). But almost every time there’s a version upgrade, the internal #MySQL / #mariadb database breaks.

Modern corporate OS strategy: It tracks your notifications, screenshots your desktop, and then ships the difficult prompts to an external cloud model anyway. It's a glorified middle manager copying the smart kid's homework. 🛑💼

Cut the fluff. #lucentOS and #fijiOS keep your data local, private, and fast.

Big Tech is spending billions on AI infrastructure just so your OS can look at your screen and say, "Oh look! A text from your mom!" Bro, I know, I'm looking at it. Your OS is acting like your grandma discovering a flashlight app for the first time. 👵🛸

Run #lucentOS or #fijiOS. Your RAM is for real workloads, not corporate babysitters.

We are the team behind #lucentOS and #fijiOS, and we believe your operating system should be a private digital vault, not a corporate surveillance terminal. Hardened Fedora base, zero tracking. Launching November 2026. Star the roadmap! 🚀 [Link] #Linux #FOSS

Apple Intelligence reads your emails, scans your photos, and tracks your schedule. It’s not a helpful assistant; it's a digital little sister who goes through your room, reads your diary, and runs to Google to ask what the words mean. 🤫💀

#fijiOS and #lucentOS offer an absolute privacy blackout on a hardened Fedora core.
