No, its a desktop version of the Collabora Online suite. Its based on LibreOffice, but imo has a much better frontend and is more stable.

There’s also Collabora Office

What exactly do you think someone is going to have to do that isn’t easily done on Bazzite? Bazzite isn’t based around Steam. 99% of users will install everything they need from Flathub and be perfectly fine.

Also, you can do anything you want with an “immutable” distro, it’s just done differently. Immutable is a bad and unclear descriptor, which is why Bazzite uses atomic.

True, I think that’s usually the case for most distros. Most users aren’t looking for a reason to swap from a distro they’re comfortable with.

Agreed. Ive been active in a lot of Linux communities for a good while now, and I’ve never seen a single distro being recommended as much as Bazzite. Mint was probably the closest, but it’s always had detractors due to its stable base affecting hardware support.

The page linked in the post. Click the drop down to filter by Linux only.

Immutable distros are perfectly fine for 99% of use cases and are far less likely to be broken by and end user following poorly made guides on the internet.

Feels like youre really diminishing Bazzite’s popularity here. Ive seen it regularly talked about here and in a lot of YouTube videos for around a year now. Its also currently used by 5.5% of the Steam Linux player base (you can see by filtering the results by Linux only), making it one of the most popular distros for gaming right now. Also, CachyOS is just ahead of it at 6.74%. Definitely not flavor of the month numbers imo

This graphic is just a bit misleading, and the more detailed results show the opposite story. Bazzite is as 5.53% of Linux users, up 1.29% from last month and one of the most used single distros, behind SteamOS, Arch, Mint, and CachyOS.

That list is just weird and only shows a few specific distros. If you go to the Linux only results you get way more info. It shows Bazzite as used by 5.53% of respondents, +1.29% from last month.

Thanks for the info! For some reason I had thought VoidAuth also only used passkeys, not sure where I got that lol. I’ll definitely give it a try when I have the chance. I want to look into creating a NixOS module for it.

I am glad you like the interface and logo, it is inspired by my own black cat who right at this very moment is yelling for pets 😹

Cute, I’m writing this with my black cat sitting next to me :)

Its a design choice of Navidrome: https://www.navidrome.org/docs/faq/#-how-can-i-edit-my-music-metadata-id3-tags-how-can-i-renamemove-my-files

Is there any feature comparison between this and pocket-id? I think they fill a very similar gap, but I’m tempted to try VoidAuth, mainly cause the aesthetic is way cuter imo

I also just started the process of migrating to a self hosted music server. I’m using navidrome, but a big feature I want is being able to easily add custom tags to songs that I can later use to search and filter for what I want. Navidrome will only open your library in read-only, which is a smart security measure, but means it cant support this. I’m going to try Koel next and see how that goes.

Devs are able to include the ability to run past versions of the game. If they push an update that breaks mods without doing that, I feel like thats their own fault.

Also, even if the dev doesnt do this, there are ways to download previous versions of the game using the steam console.

I dont know any for amazon music, but theres a few that use Tidal which will probably have what you need. Here’s a list of them: https://github.com/eduardprigoana/hifi-instances/

I definitely feel this frustration. Unfortunately, I don’t see a good way to bypass this period of fragmentation while protocols are developed. There are a lot of protocols that were a higher priority than these, but they will still receive support. I do think maybe the remote desktop protocol could’ve been a more generic desktop control protocol, which would help with the weird error messages.

It feels like a lot of this is framed as unnecessary security theater, which I wholeheartedly disagree with. Apps should absolutely not by default have the ability to control desktop input. The current lack of support is annoying, but that doesn’t mean it should be implemented insecurely, and a secure implementation takes time. X11 is still supported by Plasma, so if you need these features, that is still an option until they’re fully implemented by your preferred compositor.

Honestly, the fragmentation of the input automation doesn’t look that bad to me. It seems as if the big compositors support the remote desktop protocol, even if the popups are a little unintuitive and gnome doesn’t support saving the permission.

Looks neat, but I can’t seem to find docs for non-container workloads. I’m using microvms and using it with them would be cool.

If you want an easy firewall option for a gaming PC, I’d recommend looking at Portmaster

I mean, they are still making games, even if they’re not the games you want. CS2 released not long ago, Deadlock is under very active development, and there’s some decent reasons to believe another game is currently in progress (like their Steam developer page showing 2 upcoming games).

Fair enough, I just don’t want others to read that and assume the software is unreasonably hard to learn.
