Thanks for the answer, but then how do I remove all of these packages?
I haven’t found a proper answer on the web.
As long as you have a way to know if it’s a Signal to whatsapp conversation, I don’t see the problem.
If you only want to talk to Signal users, you could just deactivate the interooerability option.
It’s surprising that games are getting cheaper compared to the cost of living. If you take into consideration the fact that games are becoming more expensive to produce, I really don’t understand it.
Gaming is way cheaper for me than it was during the ps2 or ps3 era.
Still, I don’t want games to become more and more ambitious and cost more and more. So, if I get GTA6, it’s gonna be at a reasonable price, maybe even second hand since I don’t need to directly support Rockstar.
That sounds really interesting. I didn’t know about Volla, but dual booting might be the way to go.
I’m sorry to judge you, but I don’t think a 2 year old should be using a computer.
I think it’s important for kids to learn how to really use a computer (instead of just a smartphone), but it’s mostly important to show them they can have fun away from screens.
I understand what you’re saying and I guess it’s true that some people are just finding excuses.
But I think you also lack some empathy towards everyone ´s user’s case.
Personnaly, switching fully to Linux was pretty easy as 99% of my gaming is being done on Playstation.
On my playstation 5 I can know for sure that I can play every game I fancy.
Why am I gaming on consoles? Mostly because it involves no tinkering.
So, despite having gotten rid of Windows a while ago, I would easily give up if I had to tinker to get a game running.
I know that gaming on Linux as never been so easy, but gaming on PC (windows or linux) looks already too difficult for some people with all the requirements.
I might jump to a Linux gaming rig in the future, but I can also understand why some people are choosing an easy path.
Netflix works flawlessly on Fedora. No streaming problem except with Nba basketball.
I also don’t really care about more people switching to Linux, except for the fact that it’s gonna force developers to make their games run on Linux.
There’ll also be some downsides with more people using linux, like more viruses…
In a way, I’d focus more on the fact that it would be cool if more people used Linux on phones instead of ios/Android. That could make it easier to run at one point…
These brands selling their own refurbished products is great news.
It gives you the ability to still support them while not creating directly more e-waste and benefitting from a cheaper price.
Yeah I’m always surprised when people are complaining about the cost to buy (not to produce) a game nowadays.
Where I live, games are way cheaper than they used to be during the Playstation 1 Era and it’s now really easy to buy used games online.
Of course if you buy every season pass or special skin for they used to game, it ends up more expensive.
Well I meant more something like you driving a car fast in an open world and having objects appearing in front of you because everything isn’t loaded yet.
Or landscape disappearing from your rear view mirror in racing games in order to save some memory.
These things wouldn’t cost anything to solve if we gave up some graphical fidelity.
I think it’s crazy that we always want prettier games when you still have visual glitches like cars disappearing in your rearview mirror, buildings and textures appearing late, screen tearing when you make your POV spin.
I don’t really need way better graphics, but I’d need these things gone as they take me out of my game way more than no raytracing or a slight fps drop.
I think these things would be easy to solve if we didn’t always get better graphics.
A Surface Go 1 has been my daily driver for the last 4 years on Fedora.
I’m mostly using it docked to a USB-C screen but it works fine by itself. I’m also using a keyboard so it’s mostly a PC and not a tablet anymore😅
But I’m really happy with it and it works almost flawlessly.
I’m running Linux mainly on a Microsoft Surface Go 1 and on a 2012 MacBook Pro occasionaly, so no friendly Linux machines.
On the Surface Go, except getting it to boot on the USB drive and some bluetooth problems everything works flawlessely.
On the MacBook, except a wifi card problem once a year, everything works fine.
I’m running Fedora Workstation and was using Ubuntu before (Fedora suits me better). Maybe you should try one of these distributions before trying a more difficult one.
I’m really encountering less bugs than on Windows at work.
Thanks for the info 👍
Is it something enabled by default or are you forced to go through a lot of customization to arrive to this result?
I love GNOME and the way you just open everything in a full screen window and just switch workspaces easily.
I find it so much better than just switching windows the way I have to do on Windows 10 at work.
I might be tempted to try to have the same workflow on KDE one day as personnalisation might a bit too limited on GNOME. Does anyone know if you can do it?

It makes me feel so nostalgic.
I still remember trying something alien called Linux on an old Dell Laptop (and also on my Playstation 3) I had inherited from my dad’s company. It was good that everything worked out of the box because I had not technical knowledge. I can’t know for sure but I guess it was a version of Ubuntu between 6.XX and 8.XX.
Then it was Linux all the time, until having a Windows dual boot in the mid-2010 before switching back to Linux fully at the beginning of the 2020’s.
No more Ubuntu though since I fell in love with Fedora.
Okay thanks, I’ll try to go back to the stock kernel and then probably try dnf autoremove
