it's available in the current stable version, just behind an about:config flag, will edit this one later on with the one when I get the time to get back on my machine

edit: took a while but I believe it's browser.translations.select.enable that enables it

Love Flowtime, I use it almost every time I need to work on something other than my full-time job

You can always download it as an extension instead of a system package for the extension, but yeah, it's available on our repos.

Also, pretty good. It will likely never be as many packages as there are in Debian's repos, but even without Flatpak there was never a package I couldn't find either in our repos or on COPR.

Imagine being this passionate about being wrong.

Happens to the best of us 😅

Free time?

I wasn't even sure I'd be able to game with it. I'm ready to break my Microsoft chains though.

Oh, don't worry, unless you are really into competitive multiplayer games with anti-cheat software, you'll likely have a great experience gaming on Linux! Just don't forget to tick the Proton compatibility layer option on Steam's settings (if they haven't yet made that the default, I'm not sure nowadays).

In any case, if you're wary if a certain game you want to play is playable or not, just check on ProtonDB.

The different names of Linux 'versions' are kernels, right?

Not really, the kernel is basically the only thing all distros share in common. The different Linux "distros" (as in distributions) are called that precisely because they have different ways of distributing the software they use to build the OS. They use different means to achieve the same goal.

Any recommendations on what 'version' to start with for a heavy gamer?

I am biased towards Fedora since I am a contributor of the project, but you can't go wrong with Ubuntu either. It's more popular so there's a lot more content about it online if you need help.

The only thing I recommend against is using small, niche distros or DIY distros (like Arch) as your first. Stick with big distros with big communities and don't be afraid to ask questions in the forums if there's any doubts or if you face any issues.

It sounds daunting in the beginning, but it's way easier than the internet make it seem.

The Anaconda redesign has been on the works since Fedora 36, it's bound to come as the default for Fedora Workstation 39. Also, you couldn't be more wrong about the telemetry proposal even if you tried. The people that work at RedHat aren't this idea of the EvIL REd HaT HiGhER UpS that you have in your mind. They are contributors just like any other volunteer in the project.

and how exactly does having telemetry (that can be easily turned off at any time) impedes your freedom to be left alone?

Always great to see those bits of history, hope to see the community grow even more without having to tolerate bigotry
