Yep, had to brick my system once to learn you never interrupt an upgrade…

Way too fucking much.

Why not, the US dollar is going the way of Venezuela anyway.

Yeah I’m a terminal noob, but feels like a file manager would be way easier to move files.

Same, I use KDE as my desktop environment with Wayland as well.

I’m sorry to hear that! I’ve been having good experiences with Wayland + NVIDIA on both Ubuntu 25.10 and EndeavourOS (whatever version is the latest). There are minor annoyances, but nothing as dire as what you’re describing.

I’m fairly new and happened to choose KDE for my own taste, but I would argue GNOME is not “fully” polished as per this post. The nits there may be small or mindless to GNOME diehards, but from a design standpoint, they seem pretty… rough.

Do you just setup a tunnel?

Ah ok. So far, upgrades on Linux seem quite messy in my experience. I still don’t fully get why libraries need to pull 1-2 GB of updates every other day, for instance. I don’t mind keeping up with bleeding edge distros, but the data usage can get irksome.

That’s fair, I don’t like being tied down to their hardware either.

Using current phone rather than buying a different one to replace it is a lot less ewaste.

I am also going to see what happens with Graphene’s new partnership. I don’t really like the idea of being locked down to specific hardware.

What are some examples of broken upgrades? I can’t really think of any of Kubuntu, except that the recent major distro update broke my fan’s RGB and they run proprietary Windows-only control programs so I can’t fix it.

I want to try GrapheneOS. But my current Samsung phone still works. If I ever do switch, I would be looking for a Pixel on the local resale market so as to avoid giving Google money, anyway.

The US-based flagships do.

What’s the adjustment like with immutable systems?

There are extremely idiot-proof solutions like Stremio.

V for Vendetta is starting to look more like prophecy than fiction…

Apk?

Wow, thank you for this.
