for all you @postmarketOS and other @linmob users, if you use zx2c4's password store (pass) to manage your passwords, you should check out Identities!

I already used pass to manage my passwords, but when I quickly needed to check my credit card PIN at the store, I had to fumble around with a terminal on a touch screen. Extremely annoying. That's why I made Identities! Now my PIN is just a few taps away, no terminal required.

Tuning my Hyprland + Quickshell + DankMaterialShell combo. I love the little details this obscure UI system has - and, of course, every aspect can be customized to your liking, just like most things in Linux.

@rolle I've never tried Arch except for SteamOS which AIUI is Arch-based, but I do know one thing: their documentation is amazing. Whenever you try to solve a thing in Linux land, you sooner or later land on Arch documentation and quite often that's the last stop you need 😄

I know many people who use Arch. Now I get it. I probably won't look any other way in the future. I've used all kinds of distros over the years, from rpm-based to deb-based, but now I've finally seen the light.

The EU is pushing to scan ALL private messages, even encrypted ones, endangering privacy, security, and fundamental freedoms across 450 million people.

This is mass surveillance disguised as child protection, and it breaks encryption, risks false accusations, and threatens democracy worldwide.

Ever since I switched to #GNU#Linux in my private life, using #Windows at work gives me near-daily headaches. I have full admin rights, yet I constantly fight the system: forced updates, inconsistent behavior, sluggish UI, weird errors buried in the registry.

I used to think this was just how #computers worked. But after experiencing the #freedom and clarity of #FOSS, Windows feels more like an obstacle than a tool.

Going back feels wrong.

Been on #dhh OS of choice #Omarchy.
I am such a big fan of him and his operating system with #hyprland on #Arch.

I am not even a developer either and I love already. Its sleek and fast and perfect.

I've found ArchLinuxARM to be pretty good on ARM systems https://archlinuxarm.org/

Jag bytte från #Ubuntu till #Arch i våras och visst kräver det mer, men här inte ångrat en sekund - tvärtom.

Med https://archinstall.archlinux.page/ så är det nummer grymt enkelt. Skulle jag speedtesta så går det lätt gå från stoppa in USB till färdiginstallerad och uppdaterad på under 10 minuter.

Jag valde #Gnome för min workstation, och #Hyprland för laptopen för på riktigt grotta ner, lära och få som jag vill ha det.

#Omarchy funkar toppen som inspiration att plocka delar från.

I can't use #Wayland with my #Linux system. Performance is terrible.

I have a 2021 Lenovo P17Gen1.
It has both an Intel P630 and NVIDIA RTX3000 Mobile GPU, running as a Prime pair.
It has a 4K eDP display, and two LG 4K displays, one connected via USB-C, and one via DP, via a TB3 Dock, all running at 60Hz.
It has 128GB of RAM, and 4TB of striped BTRFS SSD.
I am running the latest #Hyprland.

I tried running on #Arch, which cut the frame rate worse than half ANY time I connected an external 4K display ANYWHERE on either the laptop, or dock, DP, or USB-C. It refused to work via HDMI.

Switched to #Ubuntu and use Koolit's #Ubuntu installer for Hyprland. Performance is close to 60fps, but not quite. Stutters, and OBS runs at an average of 10fps, regardless of whether #PipeWire is in use, or not. Unusable.

I have been a #Linux user since September of 1991, and I can't even begin to know where the FK to go to even diagnose this problem, due to the sheer number of variables.

Is it the NVIDIA drivers?
Is it Wayland?
Is it Hyprland?
Is it Pipewire?
Why is the performance better on #Ubuntu than on #Arch?
If I were to use Wayland, what COMPARABLE GPU would I use instead?
Do I just completely jettison using a laptop and build a workstation instead?
Why in the flying FK can I not get stable vsync?!

I am posting this, because I am genuinely looking for knowledgable answers from knowlegable people, and I am VERY concerned, that given the mass exodus from Xorg to Wayland, that I need to figure out something before I end up with a system configuration that is unusable.

PewDiePie just now going full anti-BigTech explaining his complete de-googling (except Youtube).

#Linux#Arch, #RaspberryPi, #GrapheneOS, #FOSS and more FOSS. The fellow has seen the light, found a true passion apparently.
