must've been a small window where it notified me then, idk. distrowatch has the release date as 2026-04-23 but i might've upgraded in early may as i am not super keen to update when i have a stable system.
i have no issues other than spectacle.

not a fresh install, it offered me the upgrade a couple of weeks ago through discover

rocket lawnchair!

media literacy would be an important topic in schools right about now, indeed
i wouldn't be surprised if the whole thing was posted by AI "this house installed", wat?

look how it gets into the tube, it's AI
not to mention the tube isn't attached to anything

if you are aware of it and its solutions it surely is a non-issue but for me as a linux noob it was reason enough against fedora. getting into linux is already complicated enough without extra obstacles.

i found fedora hard to work with because of its hard "no non-open source" stand. e.g. i had trouble playing a x265 HEVC file with vlc where as i never encountered anything like that on any other distro and solving this was not trivial.
i am on kubuntu rn but if i were to switch i'd go back to cachyos with KDE.

one thing i noticed in trying both is x11 using more cpu in the same scenario (playing a youtube video, same resolution) and even the DP adapter i am using getting warmer when on x11 compared to wayland. in this scenario the difference wasn't much despite being roughly double (~2.5W compared to ~4.5W in x11). idk how that scales in other scenarios.

only the ARM versions

"i'm a hat!"

omg!!!!

fave tube app

revanced: https://revanced.app/ it's a bit of a hassle to set up but then it's the best imo

ah ok, good to know!

maybe open ttd which was free before but has now been rolled into transport tycoon (of which it was basically a clone/fork but with many more years of development by now, so not meant derogatory):

ah ok, thanks! i didn't make a mistake buying the poco x3 then.

this reminds me of this

thanks! curiously the poco f1 isn't even listed on the ubuntu page... only the m2 and the x3. where can i get this information from?

one of those snapdragon laptops plus linux for ARM maybe?

starting with kde 6.8 they will drop x11 support entirely: https://itsfoss.com/news/kde-plasma-to-drop-x11-support/

they link the related documents at the bottom and if you hover over the little clock next to a point it shows when it was last updated
