Ironically that link (that I manually took from the browser as it would otherwise be a permalink to my instance…) doesnt work in Jerboah

I am watching Youtube to have a summary mostly

How come the other distros don’t seem to care?

Obviously because they are SO MUCH MORE BADASS.

No.

https://lmddgtfy.net/?q=why can ubuntu ship nonfree codecs

Which is not needed but a good bonus. VLC and others are still unverified, even though very well packaged.

But I dont care about VLC anymore haha, Celluloid has Wayland support, portals, MPV configuration and is better for watching movies. Not for music though.

Uhm this is linuxmemes my guy

In emacs, nano

Wrong post?

Agree, fedora atomic is the best OS base there is. I am also testing COSMIC which is now under the ublue org.

discussion.fedoraproject.org is there for problems.

I agree that Fedora variants need more tweaking, but processes are so damn slow. For example setting up external repos would very well be possible, but they will add an intransparent “add external repos” page to Kinoite. At least that.

What is “overlays”? You can overlay packages with various package managers from many repos on many distros

The Arch repos, being quick, rolling, not restricted legally or being upstream of some corpo distro like Fedora or OpenSUSE etc

Idk ask Steam?

I can recommend a semi-rolling distro ;D wayblue has some defaults, but I have not tried it. There also is a hardened version of it under the secureblue images. Although I think the maintainer has horrible control issues, I cant deny that the product is near perfect (apart from opinionated Chromium enforcements and some hacky parts like LD_PRELOADing a different allocator) and use the kinoite variant daily.

Stacer for the win!

Agree on the Fedora problem, but the solution is pretty easy.

# install the RPM packages, your system is auto detected, the packages take care of updating the repos
sudo dnf install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm

# enable cisco-openh264 to be sure
sudo dnf config-manager --enable fedora-cisco-openh264

# install ffmpeg with allowerase
sudo dnf install ffmpeg --allowerasing

# or, if you just want videos, without uninstalling anything
sudo dnf install libavcodec-freeworld

Thats basically it. On the Atomic variants, installing libavcodec-freeworld is just as easy, but allowerasing doesnt work so you need to uninstall everything manually to unbreak ffmpeg. Or you just use uBlue where it is already done and default (this will also avoid any rpmfusion incompatibilities to happen on your device and on the server instead)

Yes this is annoying, but you do that once and afterwards have a current release more stable than Arch, and an old-supported release that is even more stable.

I might have something shocking to tell you. There are distros with good defaults!
