idk if this could be subjective, but what do you mean by upstream here? Does that mean it’s included in most distros?

Sadly I just gave up on bazzite/aurora after tinkering with it for months.

Bazzite somehow nuked itself after a couple failed upgrades and eventually couldn’t even get to the boot loader. I searched around and the only GitHub issue basically said that there is corruption in the drive and to just reinstall.

so I tried aurora today, installed ok but then wouldn’t boot lol. Switched to pop os with cosmic and no problems.

Love the idea of ublue, but there are just weird problems with it for now.

But only if it results in reclaimed vertical real estate! Vertical tabs in edge is a a net loss in screen space, which makes it pointless in my opinion

Thanks, this is cool! Definitely looks fun to play around with, plus logging might help demystify proton nonsense

I have no idea how people set up more than one program in proton/lutris/bottles/whatever but it is definitely super cool.

Until proton becomes well documented with tutorials and explanations I feel like this is sadly unachievable for most casual people

I tried the same atomic budgie recently - love budgie compared to any other desktop environment, but I could not figure out how to install non flatpak programs.

I have never seen anything about “layering”, and couldn’t install essential software that happens to only be distributed as a .deb/.rpm file without help from chatgpt, toolbox, and manually installing probably 30 dependencies by basically guess and check.

Until rpm-ostree has an actual like wiki or manual or until fedora has articles on how to deal with these issues I don’t know how many people could use it, especially normal users.

What about onlyoffice? The UI is a lot more modern which is probably the issue right?
