At least it might actually get delivered, unlike the librem 5.... /s (but not really)

I tried the prealpha and it's missing a few things I want (they're WIP). I'd suggest checking out some Youtube videos of it, and not to expect too much, as it's still not there imo.

Completely agree. I mean, I'm what you'd call a power user, and I still opt for using a flatpak for my browser (Floorp) because codecs are a pain.

I'm switching to COSMIC on Debian Stable when that becomes an option. Until then, It's Fedora with Qtile Wayland (and Hyprland as backup).

Edit: though I have a Debian VM where I'll try to get Qtile Wayland set up via pipx and document the process so might go to Debian before then.

And it runs great! Only solution for YT on TV.

Is there a simple guide to Bottles? I have used Arch and NixOS, I use a tiling Window Manager, and I use the terminal daily, and even then, I still find Linux gaming to be quite confusing (probably related to the fact I'm not the paying type; I'm more of a "sail the seven seas" type).

Yeah, NixOS is great as a server/enterprise distro, so if it gets proxmox, that's a big win imo.

I usually go for 720p to 1080p, as my monitor is at 1080p. I wouldn't really compromise quality further. But even if I had a 4k screen, I probably wouldn't go for 4k cuz downloads take too long. What I'm saying is I like balance

And almost all (if not all of it) is done by redhat engineers which will drop it when rhel 8 or 9 (whichever one still supports xorg) goes end of life.

North Korea: 316 downloads

Interesting...

In all seriousness, in both my home country and the country I live in, the number of downloads surpasses the population numbers which is kinda insane.

If they go, I'm forking it and maintaining it myself (or finding extensions to replicate the workspaces behaviour). I can't see my desktop browsing experience without workspaces anymore.

Vivaldi's theming feels... broken for me, so I can't really see myself switching to it. I should mention, however, that Vivaldi is my only real option if something happens to Floorp. What can I say, I like my workspaces on desktop, bottom tab bar on mobile, and good sync across devices.
