I've not had a single important flatpak work properly for me.

Unity = issues
Vscode = issues
Chrome = issues
Discord = issues

yea the goal is to be as maintainence-free as possible with the ability to easily rollback system updates if regressions occur

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:53 PM

Some of those should be in distrobox containers

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:53 PM

Namely the development stuff

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:53 PM

unity & vscode

Kiren•8/1/24, 1:54 PM

The things which I do have to layer, I tend to use bluebuild to put into a custom oci, rather than locally. But I do those on a Kinoite base. I only actually use Bazzite on my Ally at the moment.

discord on Linux has issues regardless of package format which is why so many vencord clients exist

BjarkeOP•8/1/24, 1:54 PM

Thans for allt he info here btw. Reading up on various terms, as they come in! Still kinda new all of this.

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 1:54 PM

I couldn.t get vencord to work

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:55 PM

some clients break yea

Kiren•8/1/24, 1:55 PM

I've never actually installed any form of discord, I just use the browser

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:55 PM

that works too

BjarkeOP•8/1/24, 1:55 PM

Except with Nitro and HD streaming

Iitslikeyy__I couldn.t get vencord to work

Indra•8/1/24, 1:56 PM

Install via flatpak and that's it

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:56 PM

does hd streaming work anywhere on linux lol

Kiren•8/1/24, 1:56 PM

Discord is just a glorified irc to me, I don't use any of the voice or streaming features lol

IIndra Install via flatpak and that's it

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 1:56 PM

I did it that way

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 1:56 PM

I get errors when I try to open it

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 1:56 PM

anyways

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 1:57 PM

I already asked it to #

bluefin but I will ask it here again because I'm a selfish nerd like that, how do I delete vscode

Iitslikeyy__I already asked it to #🦈bluefin but I will ask it here again because I'm a sel...

Kiren•8/1/24, 1:57 PM

Depends how you installed it

Kiren•8/1/24, 1:57 PM

is it a flatpak or rpm?

asen23•8/1/24, 1:57 PM

if you have bluefin probably better just hide it

Iitslikeyy__I already asked it to #🦈bluefin but I will ask it here again because I'm a sel...

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:57 PM

dont use the -dx version

asen23•8/1/24, 1:57 PM

or that works too

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:57 PM

systemd-ext may resolve this in the future

Aasen23 if you have bluefin probably better just hide it

Kiren•8/1/24, 1:57 PM

Oh valid point, it might be in the oci for them

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 1:58 PM

Why?

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:58 PM

but technical limitations with OCI don't allow you to uninstall packages from the image that ship with it

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 1:58 PM

oh yeah I'm uninstalling bluefin I can't live with vscode

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:59 PM

could just rebase to the non-dev version

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 1:59 PM

that will uninstall it

BBjarke Except with Nitro and HD streaming 😄

Rin ✨•8/1/24, 2:00 PM

vesktop and goofcord works with 1080p60 for me, vanilla client doesn't work at all

Rin ✨•8/1/24, 2:01 PM

only issue I have for now is black tearing with NVIDIA and Gnome, Intel and AMD works fine

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 2:02 PM

BjarkeOP•8/1/24, 2:03 PM

I think I'm just running away from any distro that uses either flatpak, distrobox, layered rpm, or whatever fancy things that make everything more complicated in the name of security. If I've downloaded a thing, and run it. I've given my consensus for it to do whatever stuff it wants to do! I don't even need a software store front, automatic updates or anything. Next distro for me will maybe be Arch Linux, and two days later, probably back to Windows^^...

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 2:04 PM

Distrobox is cool, you can just use any distro like arch, openSuse, ubuntu

BjarkeOP•8/1/24, 2:05 PM

I'll give it a chance!

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 2:05 PM

Hwo do I rebase

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 2:05 PM

Help lol

Rin ✨•8/1/24, 2:05 PM

I don't think it's so much about security but just way more hard to break, just like Android and SteamOS. It's be working great ootb instead of making things work your way, I like that I can just run the installer, open Steam, and play!

itslikeyy__•8/1/24, 2:05 PM

The documentation is so fragmented

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 2:06 PM

bluefin docs don't really talk about upstream fedora atomic stuff, im on mobile at work but here:

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 2:06 PM

rpm-ostree rebase <image>

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 2:06 PM

image can be found with: rpm-ostree status

asen23•8/1/24, 2:07 PM

doesnt dx have ujust?

tryhardsoccermomswag•8/1/24, 2:07 PM
