Bizarrely enough, I think KDE aops also read that info from ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css. So use Flatseal, KDE’s settings, or the CLI to give all apps access to that file.

True, although not in the same way. KDE is using its own GTK theme and uses ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css to override colors to the accent color. But this method is broken for sandboxed versions of Firefox since they can't access ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css (though with flatpak you could create an override to allow it).

I believe (and hope) Firefox is now following the standardized accent color portal for determining the accent color. If so, then this accent color change should work on Gnome, KDE, Pantheon, and other desktops that support the accent color portal. If true, then even sandboxed apps should follow the accent color without messing with the sandbox.

You’re up to date. Staging refers to the updates they release every 2 weeks.

That’s in contrast to the stable releases they release once a year, which incorporates all the development that happened in the past year of staging updates.

Fixed the title.

Good for those who want Wayland native windows.

But as with new code and features, it may have bugs. I wouldn’t be surprised if some distros make it default back to Xwayland instead.

The big thing it has going for it is that they set up btrfs snapshots out of the box so you can rollback if necessary.

They also do more automated testing than Arch so theoretically it should be more stable.

I don’t get why this sort of picture always gets posted and upvoted when it’s wrong for most distros nowadays.

Snake case.

• Starts with a lowercase, good for shell autocompletion
• No spaces, so no worrying about spaces in shell commands
• '_' is better than '-' because it shows the spaces between words more clearly

The TLDR is that Microsoft released a secure boot update that blocked insecure versions of GRUB. This update was only meant to go out to Windows users since releasing it to dual booted users could break GRUB. However, it was accidentally also released to dual-booted users.

The fix involves disabling dual boot, running a command to reset secure boot, then re-enabling.

Place your bets, are we getting GIMP 3 before 2025?

Blender's Wayland support is not great because they're doing stuff from scratch. They're not using an existing toolkit like GTK, Qt, Electron, or even something like SDL to get Wayland support.

But if you're using an existing toolkit things are much easier and support is automatically there, you just need to do testing to ensure everything works.

The common biggest things that still use Xwayland are Chromium based apps and programs running under wine/proton. Chromium has an experimental Wayland mode that works well enough, but definitely has some bugs, especially around windowing. Wine Wayland is in the works.

A reminder that the Linux Foundation does what its members want. The members may not care about the Linux desktop, but more server oriented things and running LLMs on those servers.
