Fedora 32-bit Libraries
You might have seen some news regarding Fedora wanting to drop 32-bit libraries in the distant future. This is no longer the case as the proposal has been rescinded without a vote.
That’s good news I hadn’t heard yet. I also noticed the bazaar suddenly appeared yesterday. Now I know why.
Iirc they came out right away and said more or less of this is the case we just won’t do it. Not official but it felt like a dead end
Sees titanfall reference.
Cries.
Can someone fork it and rename it Brazzite?
sorry.
Do games perform significantly better on this compared to a desktop Ubuntu with a gaming rig?
Out of the box? Probably, as Ubuntu doesn’t come with everything you need for gaming, so it doesn’t work at all. Once you install all the same packages I imagine it’s about the same. Usually a distro isn’t doing anything particularly special. It’s mostly just a collection of packages, which you can install on any other distro as well.
Word on the street is that Ubuntu gets updates very slowly. If people want latest and greatest drivers kernels etc then fedora and its spins is the way. Or arch if you are into that sorta thing.
no

Do you mean the desktop environment?
Yeah that’s what I meant, sorry
Time to update and check it out
Did they fix the horrible performance of Firefox based browsers? That was deal breaker for me. YouTube videos would lag and stutter for 1-2 seconds before playing. Smooth as butter on chrome based browsers. I don’t want to rely on chrome based browsers.
I just installed and run my browser through a Fedora toolbox (distrobox) and it fixed that problem completely.
I use FreeTube for yt, but that has issues with IP blocks and stuff while using a VPN, but it works if I switch servers once or twice.
Didn’t think of that but too late now. Just nuked and went with Fedora proper.
have been using bazzite for a while now and don’t have issues with Firefox, could be tests Google are running. they recently are targeting users of adblockers and artificially setting high load times in hopes users disable them. a decent alternative is freetube (on flathub) which is anonymous so you can’t login but you can import playlists and includes ad+sponsor block. they’re pretty fast at fixing Google’s attempts to break it too, sometimes you might have to change instances to get it working.
This feels more like a codecs issue tbh. Not a bandwidth problem. It’s more hardware lag if that makes sense.
Maybe the same issue that Silverblue has with the Firefox from the Fedora repo. The Flathub repo Firefox has the non-free codecs in it.
I personally wouldn’t describe it as horrible, but it is good to hear someone else seeing problems with video playback on YT. Just curious though, did you have any add-ons? I do and I need to compare playback without them. Hrmm
I did clean installs no addons of zen and librewolf and all of them had the same laggy stutter the first 1-2 seconds a video loads.
I yeeted the installed one and just went with the rpm Firefox, works a treat
