I switched to Bazzite based on a recommendation and it’s been a fantastic OS for me (gaming and light development/home labbing) and I no longer have any desire to distro hop.

Took a bit to figure out the immutable stuff for some very niche things I needed done, but other than that ezpz

I think the stream to own MP3 like you just downloaded from Bandcamp or something definitely has to be the model from the start. Then they can tweak it from there.

I think that’s all fair.

I was really interested in the idea of using it as a way of growing my offline and/or self hosted collection. Fair compensation for artists while still being able to have good new music discovery and grow my library at the same time would be really cool.

Still to be seen if they can manage, to your point, but I’ll hold out a little hope until they lose their goodwill

I guess it depends on how much new music is released, added to the library, and then streamed by the users. It’s a valid concern to be sure, but I wonder if it could be offset by user growth and new music to be a non issue

I missed CachyOS in my perusing, this looks nice too! I’ll have to check into it more, thanks!

Yeah pretty much all my apps have flatpaks which is nice. I haven’t messed with arch based yet so AUR will be new to me

First time I’ve heard of that podcast and it sounds interesting. Is there a season that touches on it more than others or is it just an overarching theme throughout the different seasons and revolutions covered?

Second this. Been working with flutter and dart professionally for awhile now and it’s great

Nuggets not having an Android app is an interesting choice.
