that made me never want to use pop actually cos I could see myself doing that

Vit's slowed down the adoption of wayland protocols and portals until more recently. but it's basically gnome's standard/way vs literally everyone else's combined standards.
WI also saw that flatpaks clean up automatically now. I ended up with over 40 copies of the nvidia dependencies on my pop install
AWell gnome was picking the way to go with development at the time this adoption was taking place as was everyone else and they just settled on a method that was different to what others picked
ABut you can't see the future
ASo you never know what horse you're betting on at the time
AY know?
WI loved Pop. I even used it for work for a while
BI just installed the latest desktop nvidia gnome ISO, using nvidia, and everything is flickering like crazy. Black screens all over, letters i'm typing going in and out of existence. (i did run the system update). I'm kinda new to linux just switched from Windows. Should I switch to X11? is that safe to do? it looks like I'm on Wayland right now. Even though some users in here say that they are on x11 by default?
Vyep
AAdopting new protocols like this is always a gamble
AAnd sometimes you might not pick the winning horse just by pure happenstance
Mpeople going to slap me but manjaro was the most stable thing I had back then. No issues with my install and could have kept to this day.
When I heard of their corporate issues etc I left it

Mthe forums are one of the nicer forums out there as well not that we need forums as much these days
ABut it's easier for gnome to just keep at it than rewrite mutter from scratch at this point and basically undo all that work they've spent time doing so y know, I get their point
Mor that they are as popular
Vmanjaro mostly only fucks up if you use the aur
AManjaro is weird
MI Used the aur
Mto get some streaming background software
AI'm very comfy on Fedora and derivatives tbh
Mand can confirm dependency hell at some point
Vsince they hold back packages in their mainline so you get out of version with dependencies required by aur packages
MI only tried fedora since nobara
WBazzite was my first Fedora that I tried. Titus Tech put me off it lol
Mnobara then got buggy after their update
Vi just don't really see the point of manjaro when archinstall and endeavour exist? but that's me
MI heard wolfy say similar in his vid
WNo wait Nobara was first
Mand I was like maybe bazzite will be better
AFedora is my happy place tbh. I decided to try it again after many years of having not even touched it and I was super comfy
Mcos iirc glorious egg roll prob too busy to really just look at nobara
AAnd it's my distro of choice now
Mback then I had to use arch
Mit was the only way
Mfor what I wanted to try
Vi love everything glorious eggroll has done but i just can't see myself using a distro maintained by a single individual
Mwhich was super suyper niche
AHard agree
Mthat is my thoguht exactly on it
Vublue is great because it's not a distro. it's fedora. fedora has done all the hard work.
MI think he should just be a bit more focused or have help
AThe strength of Bazzite is it's majority fedora and ublue which are very healthy projects
NSame, tried nobara for a short time, managed to break it, and went straigth back to Endeavouros. Then I went for bazzite, as my first long-term fedora distro.
I think I also tried bazzite before nobara, but it felt incomplete at the time, so I jumped back.

Mlol here is a weird one. WHat is even ublue. SMack me now
MI know we are in the discord
Mso prepared for smacking
AThe only difference between nobara and bazzite as far as packages are concerned is that nobara snapshots the fedora repos once a month
Valso everyime bazzite or bluefin/aurora have a bug with a new update it's just a quick 'whelp, go back to last deployment and wait'
ABut as it stands I think Fedora's Atomic distros are fantastic and UBlue makes em even better
AThat's... Fairly infrequent
