NixOS not the major inspiration for immutables, consumer OSes like Android and ChromeOS are. But yes, NixOS has some influence even it don’t get the idea of immutable distros well.

GNU Taler is inferior anyway, and it has been existing for many years with exact zero of usage.

Imagine reinventing Chaumian e-cash 40 year later and promoting it as a innovative approach in digital payments.

Do not use Apple products. -> Problem solved.

Seems that you cannot access flathub.org for some reasons, a networking issue probably.

Fedora is Fedora and uBlue is uBlue, a separate project. Blaming Fedora for uBlue issues is like blaming Ubuntu for Mint issues.

And on Silverblue issues on updated happen from time to time. On immutable distros such issues won’t break the system unrecoverable, this is the whole reason for immutables, but there are no promises for lacking of issues.

And you are disappointed because you have encountered two different issues at once. But it is a purely random event, and I have not noticed any changes in frequency.

But saying about Silverblue, I think probably it doesn’t get much attention from the Fedora project lately, because few recent releases didn’t have any improvements either.

Fedora Silverblue, but OK, well, maybe openSUSE Aeon also.

GNOME

Ethereum Foundation is not Ethereum in the same way how Mozilla Foundation is not Firefox.

Ethereum disclosed the incident in a blog post

Ethereum is a blockchain, it cannot write posts. But well, at least they don’t write it as “Etherium”.

It could be private or could be not. But in a world of total financial surveillance and initiatives like ChatControl, I doubt it will be really private.

If a person is smart an has personal opinions about everything or if they are a person of power I won’t trust them. Because how can I prove they are a true believer and not a liar or sociopath?

If a person is average human who thinks what the crowd thinks then I won’t care.

Better not having different regions at all.

Net-zero in 2030 is a lie. Google, Microsoft, whoever, - doesn’t matter. It’s only five years left. I don’t even think that bigcop can go from increasing carbon emissions to decreasing before 2030.

A person can consider a thing as awesome or not, and can change the opinion based on a situation. Sex is also like that. But sex is one of the things which influence thinking and behavior much. Is fear awesome? Is pain awesome? Something like that.

I will use it. I don’t care what others think. People can use su, sudo, doas, run0 by their choice, and I don’t see why we need a common opinion about it.

Maybe they are new users who miss Windows, so they are trying to find reasoning to stay on Linux. I as an old user have no more any special emotions about Windows. I play with it form time to time. But the OS is quite conservative because of its market monopoly and I don’t find anything new and interesting in new releases. It is not special about Windows, all consumer OSes are kinda stabilized now, and corporations do not want to experimenting and build new things.

So, I don’t hate Windows, I just don’t find it interesting for me. I use and will use it on a separate machine for some niche tasks, when they require windows-only software.

And to build independent browser not sponsored by google is a soft of an ideological motivation. If only it is not a pure marketing lie. There are no technical reasons for being sponsored by Shopify but not by Google. I would say there is no much of an ideology either.

And other things about the project are also concerning me:

• It uses Qt for UI, while modern browsers can draw UI with their own engines. A redundant dependency which also will harm modularity and embeddablity.
• Modern browsers have complexity of operating systems. It’s just a waste of resources to build an independent browser from scratch, but not to make the engine reusable.

This is a poor choice.

The other things: It’s so independent (from google), but already got sponsorship and changed the landing page to a typical landing of a startup. This independence is populism. Just enough one for feeding their adepts with promises. I won’t be surprised of possible advertisement integrations made “for maintaining independence”.

NGMI.

They live in the C++ age.

It is quite opinionated though.
