It is on by default in Windows… More likely people have routers with it disabled.

Pro doesn’t reduce ad amounts IME.

Video decoding/encoding should work fine, better than Nvidia as fewer things support nvdec (the vaapi wrapper is enough though).

My view is that if the goal was to effectively make good software they wouldn’t start from scratch.

If they used wlroots the desktop would be usable today with a good feature set.

If they used Qt or GTK they would have feature rich well supported software. (GTK4 could have been an improvement for them, it’s designed around being minimal and having platform libraries implement design choices)

They didn’t take a practical approach imo. You could argue its a long term investment but because of it it’s probably years off of feature parity. The only upside today is… it’s written in Rust.

Nobody loves arguing semantics more than a programmer. VSCode is absolutely an IDE. Jetbrains is entirely plugin based, Eclipse is totally plugin based, and yeah so is VSCode.

The project is motivated by “I like Rust, lets make a whole desktop in it” not by good UX.

The option to enable Nvidia drivers is buried

You just type Nvidia into Software. They’ll never promote it unfortunately.

Works on any Linux kernel in the past like decade, yes.

A new freedesktop runtime releases once a year, most apps are on the latest.

Nobody uses the Fedora runtime. It exists for political reasons not practical.

selinux support doesn’t actually work. The point was to present snap as portable when it is not.

The domain is a public part of TLS itself, SNI, for now.

Qwant primarily uses Bing. Every single concern is the same.

Websites can never request this data.

Wish you the best, but its a bad choice. The AUR isn’t safe, as-in reliable between updates.

Valve makes snapshots into their versioned atomic OS, so its safe. Plus a few custom packages, they don’t just use Arch and their choice isn’t relevant IMO.

Arch is cool and all, but why in the world is that your choice for nontechnical users… it is not robust and isn’t meant to be.

GPG errors are fatal unless you manually configure the repo to ignore them with an obscure command.
