ProtonBadger

Also they’ve submitted not only bug reports but numerous fixes in many components not even belonging to them but applicable to any ARM systems and in some cases even AMD64. Their productivity is mad, their attitude awesome and they’ve benefited the entire open source community. Thank you to the Asahi Linux team!

There won't be a joining of efforts but COSMIC seems like it may be the DE that many are looking for, it has a way to go though, we'll see.

It's a human thing, this is all social media. It'll happen here as well if enough people join a conversation and especially if the userbase expands. Everyone just want to have their say/get attention without checking the other comments.

because it's unsafe or something

It’s one of those bits that haven’t been done yet. The protocol extension is being discussed as there are a lot more different use-cases than one would think and a number of ways to do it. Wayland is great but nothing is perfect and this is one of its weaknesses: evolving it takes time as we’re afraid of getting it wrong.

I prefer Linux and I’m OK with macOS. Windows on the other hand I dislike, it has bloated complex middleware and tries to control me like a hand puppet. I can work on it but given the choice I go elsewhere.

I’m not sure OP sounds like someone who into reading Arch News, learning about pacnew/pacsave, etc. that’s more for hobbyists. An ubuntu flavor or something like Zorin might be better for them and then stick with it and solve any problem that may show up.

It's most like due to power governor and scheduler behaviors. If there's background activity impacting the test it would more likely be Defender.

Kinda an Apple product. I was hoping for the Schlage Encode Plus with Homekit support. I'm quadriplegic and locking/unlocking my front door is really physically difficult. And maybe a Homepod that can function as Thread/Homekit hub.

I'm looking at how many of the bugs and security issues are due to memory unsafe code - it's A LOT and new ones come up almost daily. Humans are just bad at writing safe code because we are so fallible. So if we can eliminate a significant percentage of these bugs from the ground up that suddenly becomes very interesting. Besides personally after two decades of C and C++ (and debugging them) I find Rust much more pleasant and "ergonomic" to use.

If we want an OS to be more secure by design we really have to begin at the most basic level. It might never be perfect but we can greatly reduce the attack surface. This is also why Microsoft is rewriting a number of vulnerable system components of Windows in Rust.

So why is it important to the end-user? Well, if that's Average Joe, maybe not but Redox OS right now is not mainstream, it is for us nerds who are interested in a safer OS and to see what can be done in that space. Maybe you don't care and that's fine, but some of us do and just like any post here, people can chose to skip over it or dive into the discussion, we can't guarantee that all posts or projects are interesting to everyone :)

Yeah Joplin is nice. I sync it to a free 10GB Dropbox account and use it on Linux and iOS. I've also used it with Android and Windows in the past, it's available everywhere and works great.

Joplin is great for notes. I've set it to sync with a free Dropbox account and have used it on Android, iOS, Linux and Windows.

I just got the Discord update, meh, seems ok to me, maybe even a bit more convenient. They obviously think it's an improvement.
