No Xorg also ships with up to date distros like Debian, arch, Ubuntu, etc but several of them have switched to using Wayland by default. It is deprecated because it is no longer actively developed and only maintained by a small group of devs and even that because these devs work for companies like Red Hat, Oracle, etc who have a vested interest in fixing those bugs

So I am guessing that always on top works on the flatpak version because it is running through XWayland

I am using fedora silverblue and in the native version of Firefox, the picture in picture window does not have always on top enabled. Is there anyway to change a setting such that always on top is enabled by default. I know it is supported on gnome+fedora because the flatpak version(I downloaded to test this behaviour) has this enabled by default.

What bling¿? I thought endeavorOS was very minimalist as well. Just arch with an easier installer

It seems your igpu is being used instead of the dGPU

If just most games wold run on Linux out of box at least same as on Windows, i can imagine there would be shift in market share.

You could argue that this is somewhat true by looking at the protondb numbers for the top 1000 games. 88% of the games are silver rated or better and the majority of those 12% games are competitive multiplayer titles with weird/invasive anti cheats.

Is it supposed to replace the % with %%? Because that is what it seemed like it should do from the code.

If this is the bug you are alluding to then i will report the bug or else please tell me what the bug you referring to so i can report the correct thing

Nevemind I figured it out. Was trying to give a new drive read write access for backups and the error stemmed from the fact the name had a ℅ in it.

Edit - It was the path to the folder not the drive with had %

 

So i was trying to launch steam but it did not work so I ran flatpak run com.valvesoftware.Steam and found the error messages below. I tried looking through the python scripts but i am not a programmer and could not zero in on the issue. Could some body help me as to how to fix it.

So are you saying that privacy wise there is no difference between a device running stock rom and a rom like lineage with GApps??

 

So recently my moto G60 reached the end of life with respect to security updates. That was the reason I was using to prevent myself from switching to a custom rom(actual reason is laziness). This phone has rom support for pixel experience and lineage OS. So my questions are if pixel experience has any privacy advantages when compared to the stock rom the phone ships with¿? Also if I flash GApps along with lineage OS will all the privacy advantages I get with lineage disappear¿? I might need Google play services for some banking applications.

 

So I am trying out fedora silverblue and recently rebased it to uBlue to get access to hardware decoding for non-free codecs and for some QoL improvements. Before rebasing, I used to get both system updates(update to image that silverblue is based on) and flatpak updates through the gui package manager(gnome-software in this case) but since i rebased, i was not getting any notifications for system updates. I ran rpm-ostree upgrade and then it pulled from the manifest and updated the system using the updated image. For some reason gnome-software did not know this new image was available.

My question is does this mean that i will have to run rpm-ostree upgrade to update from now or will gnome-software handle it? I have no problem using the terminal but gnome-software is more convenient and I am lazy.

 

When i launch steam(flatpak version) from the desktop, the app keeps trying to launch shows a black window for a few seconds and then crashes and the process keeps repeating. The steam icon is present on the system tray so it is running in the background.

When i run it with flatpak run com.valvesotware.Steam steam starts and runs as normal but the logs show this error

Steam Runtime Launch Service: starting steam-runtime-launcher-service Steam Runtime Launch Service: steam-runtime-launcher-service is running pid 239 steam-runtime-launcher-service[239]: E: Unable to acquire bus name "com.steampowered.PressureVessel.LaunchAlongsideSteam" Steam Runtime Launch Service: steam-runtime-launcher-service pid 239 exited Steam Runtime Launch Service: starting steam-runtime-launcher-service Steam Runtime Launch Service: steam-runtime-launcher-service is running pid 372 steam-runtime-launcher-service[372]: E: Unable to acquire bus name "com.steampowered.PressureVessel.LaunchAlongsideSteam" Steam Runtime Launch Service: steam-runtime-launcher-service pid 372 exited Steam Runtime Launch Service: starting steam-runtime-launcher-service Steam Runtime Launch Service: steam-runtime-launcher-service is running pid 377 steam-runtime-launcher-service[377]: E: Unable to acquire bus name "com.steampowered.PressureVessel.LaunchAlongsideSteam" Steam Runtime Launch Service: steam-runtime-launcher-service pid 377 exited Steam Runtime Launch Service: steam-runtime-launcher-service keeps crashing on startup, disabling

Is there anyway I can fix this so that steam launches correctly when it is launched from the desktop. I am on fedora kinoite with 5600h+5500m laptop

Edit : is this somehow related to the dbus access that it has¿?
