You wouldn’t download a country

Dockge looks interesting, I gotta check that out

Is your browser installed as a Flatpak?

Kodi is ideal for an HTPC

I don’t really remember, that was a few years ago. I’ve been using the flatpak ever since.

For me it was actually the other way around, I had issues with the normal package so I went with the flatpak.

IMO the best Linux desktop experience that you can get right now

It’s not perfect, but much better than going to Shitter. Some people apparently find Mastodon obscure or confusing and switched to Bluesky instead. Supposedly it’s more friendly towards new users. I just hope that bridgy-fed improves and becomes more common in the future, so we can follow Bluesky accounts from the Fediverse and vice-versa.

Btw you don’t have to go on Shitter, the account is on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/lucia.red

True, just wanted to mention that they make other great stuff. You can basically game on every Linux distro, it doesn’t have to be gaming-focused.

Or Universal Blue in general. They also make Aurora and Bluefin, both are amazing!

It’s great for documents, etc., but I would use something different for photos. Check out Immich and PhotoPrism. I prefer Immich, because it has official mobile apps for Android and iOS. PhotoPrism has an unofficial gallery app for Android, but it doesn’t have sync capabilities. For that, you would need to use a 3rd-party, closed source app called PhotoSync. I think Immich is just the better option.

True, didn’t say that it didn’t take me an eternity to set it up

You mean Bazzite? Yeah, it’s really great. Based on uBlue, which is actually based on Fedora’s Atomic spins. It’s very stable, secure and reliable, and pretty hard to mess up. Basically the closest thing to SteamOS that you can get.

uBlue Bazzite is pretty cool, Fedora/Nobara, Pop!_OS, Mint, etc. mostly just work, Gauda is arch-based, is optimized for gaming and performance and is pretty user friendly.

Btw you can self host an open source Tailscale server called Headscale. And there’s NetBird which is a fully open source alternative to Tailscale.

What has your experience with Headscale been like? Also, have you tried NetBird?

I used to use Wireguard with Authelia, then I switched to Tailscale (with a self-hosted Headscale server), and now I’m trying out Netbird (which is open source btw)
