tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:10 PM

there is 2 other options

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:10 PM

both allow you to still use firefox

CCrono I'd pick Brave, Ungoogled Chromium and Edge over Chrome in that order

not_leader•6/30/24, 10:10 PM

i would recommend brave a total of never

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:10 PM

stay on X11 or set the permissions in Flatseal for Firefox to put it in Xwayland mode

not_leader•6/30/24, 10:10 PM

does webkit work on nvidia?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:11 PM

at least until the issue with firefox and the 555 drivers are fixed

Nnot_leader does webkit work on nvidia?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:11 PM

id assume so

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:11 PM

i dont have nvidia hardware but im sure epiphany works

not_leader•6/30/24, 10:11 PM

so i guess midori's also an option

not_leader•6/30/24, 10:12 PM

wait midori's gecko?

not_leader•6/30/24, 10:12 PM

okay my info is 5 years out of date

Oddr•6/30/24, 10:18 PM

The Flatseal approach works nicely

Eggman•6/30/24, 10:22 PM

floorp is good too

Shacruel•6/30/24, 10:22 PM

These settings in Flatpak Permissions work for me

Blaire•6/30/24, 10:25 PM

oh cool i can just do that for my retroarch! i was using an environment variable to make it use xwayland but this is more clear

Blaire•6/30/24, 10:26 PM

should I have access to the Exhibit program after updating? im not seeing it installed or is it only for new installations?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:28 PM

yeah kyle seems to have made it for new installations only

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:29 PM

thats interesting

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:29 PM

i can PR a fix

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:29 PM

then it just needs to be reviewed and pushed to main and built again and you'll have it

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:29 PM

if you want it now then you can install it in Discover/GNOME Software

SShacruel These settings in Flatpak Permissions work for me

JanierOP•6/30/24, 10:30 PM

I'm pretty noob what this means? I can install something and told it to execute it on x11?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:31 PM

or there

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:31 PM

Flatseal or the KDE flatpak permission settings can do this

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:31 PM

would recommend changing it back to the defaults after this gets fixed by firefox though

matt_schwartz•6/30/24, 10:32 PM

chromium enjoyers rise up

JanierOP•6/30/24, 10:32 PM

I see,I will try it

Ttryhardsoccermomswag yeah kyle seems to have made it for new installations only

Blaire•6/30/24, 10:32 PM

i think it would make sense to have it included in existing installations, but idk how others feel about bundling software like that

BBlaire i think it would make sense to have it included in existing installations, but i...

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:33 PM

if they don't like then its an easy uninstall

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:34 PM

most likely wont pre-install any other flatpaks after this

Oddr•6/30/24, 10:35 PM

do you mean that you won't add more, or that you'll remove flatpak pre-installs altogether?

antheas•6/30/24, 10:35 PM

tbh i would have left x11 on by default still

Mmatt_schwartz chromium enjoyers rise up

Crono•6/30/24, 10:37 PM

matt_schwartz•6/30/24, 10:39 PM

me, I’m the enjoyer because my password manager hates Firefox on Linux

Oddr•6/30/24, 10:40 PM

I'd prefer it (or Safari, just to get my setup from my MacBook to transfer). But what I'd prefer is for browsers (including Brave) to stop bundling AI, loyalty programs, etc. Half tempted to go back to using lynx.
