I've been using Fedora and honestly I'm impressed. Especially since version 39. It's solid, stable, gaming just works. It requires some initial setup with COPR and installation might not be as straight forward but it's definitely not hard.

I may get downvoted but make sure you're using X11 for now because Xwayland latency is real. Wine on Wayland is around the corner but not there yet. And use Steam from COPR not flatpak. Besides that, in my opinion, it's a dream setup.

The fonts are nice but I absolutely hate the "copilot voice" text moving around idea, it's absolutely terrible to read.

Since GNOME disabled desktop icons years ago, I liked it so much that I disable them in every OS I use, even on Windows.

They are just ugly and make the whole system feel messy. I do t need that. I can use the search or a favourites thing in a hidden drawer like the start menu or the gnome dock.

Just like you can have your own private Stack Overflow server for your company.

It sounds like an interesting idea but I'd make the server defederated from everything else to start with.

Imagine GIMP is enshitified somehow. Well that won't work because the source code is available and people will just create a fork and work with that instead.

There's many Lemmy and Mastodons servers AND clients out there, being open source is already one thing add federation on top and you see no one really is in control of Lemmy or Mastodon as a whole.

I'm just coming back to Linux after a 5 years break. Ive gone the latest Fedora on my laptop and if I understood it right it's using Wayland on GNOME. I have the Nvidia drivers installed from the store, so no external repos or command line trickery, everything went smoothly and honestly the whole OS works better and visual glitches were gone instantly. Honestly the whole experience is vastly upgraded compared to the last time I used Linux. When bringing gaming to the equation I am honestly impressed with the current state of Proton, I tried a few heavy games where I'd expect all sorts of weird graphical glitches if they were running on wine back in the day and for my surprise they work absolutely fine and even better than on Windows, like No Man's Sky, Risk of Rain 2. The only thing not right is having 2 monitors with different scales or just having a high dpi screen in general, sometimes apps don't scale right, so I just changed the resolution.

All in all really a fantastic experience so far.

SO has been such a bad source of information for a long time and a toxic community that I've added it to my Google search results Blocklist altogether.

That's pretty cool and I am actually a little excited to try and learn it just for fun. I did very little unity before and godot sounds very interesting

DAWs - LMMS is cool and was my gateway to music production but it lacks so much compared to Studio One, FL Studio, Ableton, etc.

Actually that's a modern measurement concept based on the original meter. By using this concept, the size of a meter is tied to absolute terms in physics that "anyone" could measure with the right tools, while the original concept was based on a physical object called the meter, which is subject to many things such as heat dilation for example making it not accurate, and if the original object was lost we would not have a way to tell what is a meter (conceptually speaking of course).

The foot on the other hand (lol) is traditionally based on the king's foot size. This of course depends on which country (or realm?), and to make matters worst, who's the king at the time, because yes the official measure would change based on that too.

Of course that's not how it is today, but we can say the original foot was lost long ago.
