It’s the heavy graphics used which looks like it uses WebGL and this is disabled in LibreWolf since it can easily be used for fingerprinting a user. It would be great if they could not use such heavy graphics if WebGL is not supported and just used simple static image or something like that. Well it would be great in general not just for privacy reasons.
Yeah I am so glad I switched to GNU/Linux years ago, Have to keep supporting closed OSes at work with our software and with each release they are just getting worse and worse, while GNU/Linux just keeps getting better.

Even quicker is “#X”
Yup still exists. It is also available in KDE Help Center. And you can quickly jump to a man page you typing “#man” into KRunner.
Yup I agree, openSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma desktop is just awesome. my favourite distro at this moment,
Bash is my favourite one, second to it being Fish
Yeah the driver supporting LEDs and exposing them should be installed. The exposed LEDs can be found in /sys/class/leds/<device>/multi_[index|intensity]
, See Linux kernel documentation for details: LED handling under Linux and Multicolor LED handling under Linux
Depends on the specific distro and their upgrades policies.
Usually with normal distributions you get an update to a new major version (e.g. from Plasma 6.0 to Plasma 6.1, or some versions can be skipped) when a new version of the distribution gets released, and in the mean time you only get bug fix releases (e.g. 6.0.x to 6.0.y). Sometimes some distributions also make special backports available to bring new major versions to same distro version.
With rolling release distributions (e.g. openSUSE Tumbleweed) you get new major releases in a few days after they are released.
So you need to check with Nobara how they handle this.
One way of greatly improving ROCm installation process would be to use the Open Build Service which allows to use the single spec file to produce packages for many supported GNU/Linux distributions and versions of them. I opened a feature request about this.
Most of them are C++/Qt there is also a lot of QtQuick/QML code which can do a lot and is very similar to ECMAScript, so maybe that would be a great start for someone coming from webdev.
No thanks. We don’t need more closed and bloated spyware, what we need is more open and privacy respecing OSes like GNU/Linux and devices using it like Steam Deck.
Yup very bloated spyware
If all goes perfectly it should be at the end of this year, so December 2023, but most likely we will have to wait a couple of months more.
Ir was my first desktop I encountered when introduced to GNU/Linux and it is actually what made me delay my switch to GNU/Linux since I disliked it so much. back then I did not know there are more desktop options so Iit made me think the whole GNU/Linux is not interesting to me. It was not until a few years later until I was told there are other options and I was shown KDE desktop (not called Plasma yet back then) that I fell in love with GNU/Linux.
Why I did not like GNOME was that it was too limited and limiting and unconfigurable. And I would say nowadays it has gotten even worse while KDE Plasma has improved a lot. I think GNU/Linux would have a lot more success at capturing the desktop OS market if KDE Plasma would be the major and default desktop in all those enterprise distributions. It is just so much better and so flexible you can even turn it to mimic any other desktop or even better customize it to fit your wery own best way of workflow and using computers.
Nope. here it is about the good DRM: Direct Rendering Manager
