Linux Desktop Market share reaches 3.08%
  • Unless they came with Wine, and the apps the avg joe just work with wine, I don't think it'd be a good thing. Hell, could you stop the employees at the store from telling people to just install windows after buying the laptop or the avg joe just doing that?

  • Honestly, I doubt we'll ever see native linux games be the norm. Windows isn't going away anytime soon, your average joe most likely move to linux, so it's cheaper and just as good for companies to just target proton.

  • Give it to me straight. How worried are you for Fedora's future after Red Hats recent anti user decisions?
  • Your 2 big positives are stuff I agree with wholeheartedly. But I'm still holding out on using flatpak because it feels like an incomplete solution still. There's many things with it I could work around, definitely, but it feels annoying and with NixOS I don't have to worry about those issues because stuff just works for me.

    As for FS, I wanted to love it, but doing some stuff with it is annoying. I wish it let you install stuff with dnf to /usr/local (like how it is on bsds or also macs with brew iirc).

    Organizing my thoughs: I would love a future where flatpak just works, the sandboxing is nice and all you need is to click "yes" or "no" when an app wants/needs something, where you don't even need to use your distro's package manager (or you can't even use it because the distro is immutable and it updates on its own), but we're not yet there. Installing fonts on FS was a nightmare, and I had to layer stuff like powertop and other stuff I don't remember right now. Also flatpak isn't yet a good solution for development with VScode or similar stuff.

  • I care about both design and battery, but I'm willing to compromise on battery because I'll still depend on x86 for games and some other stuff I believe. I like the design of the thinkpads too, black + red is a very kino combo.

  • I don't plan on running Asahi ever. One of the big reasons I would want a mac is because I wanna try MacOS for myself. Also, I want a thinkpad with an intel meteor lake soc, which will be a radical upgrade. I'm quite hyped
