I'm not aware of another one. Some other distros like Ubuntu and OpenSUSE ship AppArmor instead, which does similar things but isn't considered quite as secure.

I know plenty of other popular distros don't ship any Mandatory Access Control system at all which seems like a very bad security practice to me. Same thing with Firewalls.

Facebook and Instagram, sure. But plenty of people are more or less forced to keep WhatsApp either because of people they want to be able to message that refuse to use anything else, or perhaps even because they need to be in some WhatsApp groups e. g. for work.

Communication platforms aren't like web browsers or operating systems where you can switch at will to whatever else works for you, you're more or less reliant on everyone you know also making the switch.

I don't think that would work since both GPUs are AMD and use the same driver

One thing you could do is plugging your monitor straight into the iGPU outputs and using DRI_PRIME only for applications that need the powerful dGPU.

Unless you want to run either everything or nothing on a specific GPU, I don't think there's a more convenient way than setting DRI_PRIME per application.

I wonder why they use A/B root in the first place instead of a single BTRFS partition with Subvolumes and snapshots

You listed AMDGPU-Pro as a kernel driver. Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm quite sure it is a proprietary userspace OpenGL/Vulkan driver that uses the open source AMDGPU kernel driver.

Try using XWayland video bridge. It should allow any XWayland apps to use screen sharing. Unfortunately most distros either don't ship it yet or ship broken versions but you can download nightly Flatpaks from Gitlab CI

Metro Exodus has a native version with decent performance

In addition this feature makes debugging and developing KWin much easier because you can just restart the compositor without interrupting your workflow.

Pretty cool in principle, although the default word list on my system is awful for wordle.

Sounds awesome, at least in theory. It remains to be seen how much interest there is from Publishers.

I'm hoping he could revive some of the really old and poorly working Linux ports as well as games that barely run on modern Windows or Wine these days.

Although in practice I can't think of any game in my library that is in need of such a refresh, they generally all work decently in Wine (and modern Windows) even if some have a broken Linux port.

Edit: Maybe this is more exciting for macOS as there are plenty of Mac games that remain 32 bit only and thus can't run on Catalina and above (also who knows how long Apple will keep OpenGL compatibility and Rosetta around). And on mac you can't just simply "run the game with Proton" instead.

Also as another thought, while the Linux port requirement is of course a plus for us, it might be off-putting particularly for publishers that have their own shitty stores / launchers without Linux support.

I'm surprised he was able to watch Paramount Plus. I would assume that site requires Widevine DRM, and would not assume that it's available on RISC-V.

As for Blender and Kdenlive not working I'm assuming it's not because of the ISA like Christopher said, but rather because the board likely ships with crappy GPU driver blobs that only support OpenGL ES and no desktop OpenGL. Which is an important detail that this guy always misses in SBC reviews.
