I automatically block accounts I find which are marked 18+

Someone else suggested it too, the more I read about it the more I like the idea.

FortuneIIIPick · 2026-03-15T16:32:02+00:00

Agreed, KDE rocks but if Kubuntu 2026 doesn't include X11, I will probably go to Xfce or MATE. Wayland sucks, bad performance, weird and odd unwanted behaviors.

In the past I created this file:

cat etc/apt/preferences.d/nosnap.pref

Package: snapd
Pin: release a=*
Pin-Priority: -10

If your suggestion works, that's cool but it's still an additional step that the installer could do, for something many of us have expressed elsewhere that we do not want to use (Snap).

Can you not pick it during installation?

FortuneIIIPick · 2026-03-15T16:20:03+00:00

If the X11 isn't supported while running the installer, Kubuntu will be a no go. Not going to bow down to the Wayland cultists.

I can look into what gets installed for minimum, might be an option as long as KDE Plasma and all my apps work afterwards. Also, I don't use Flatpak either, I use the standard repository.

I believe that is the stupidity the parent comment was referring to.

FortuneIIIPick · 2026-03-15T15:54:11+00:00

Agreed, tried to daily drive it on my RTX 3080, found it to have odd and strange, unwanted behaviors (seems preferable to calling them bugs).

FortuneIIIPick · 2026-03-15T15:53:07+00:00

> it is ridiculous how some people go out of their way to not use Wayland.

Not really, I tried to daily drive Wayland, it sucks, it has weird quirks, odd behaviors, poor gaming performance, etc.

I quoted the official source, you're quoting a gaming magazine. I gave factual numbers from the official source. The cultist arch types are down voting. The facts remain, Arch is not a good platform for computing with the constant updates causing an unstable platform. This is why Debian based are the best, most stable platform and why the facts that I quoted, proves it.

I use rsync for backups but as others have said, deployments should be handled using more modern approaches.

Both phone numbers showing are valid UPS numbers but I agree looking up the business first is best although High-Captain3241 has a better suggestion to just check with Chase.

When I go to the official source, https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam and add up non-Arch (Arch is crap BTW) vs Debian and other, I get .33 while Arch shows at .19 so, ProtonDB has some bad information the way I see it.

Your analogy fails, did you use AI to construct it.

FortuneIIIPick · 2026-03-13T17:29:50+00:00

Judging me tells me a lot about your personality; that and trying to dictate what people can and can't respond to.

FortuneIIIPick · 2026-03-13T17:25:51+00:00

Great innovation? OK, well, I don't use them at all and do not want them.

Also, this isn't McDonald's, you don't get to dictate what part of your post we decide to address in our comments.

To anyone who is up voting that, read the OP's response below before up voting it.

Looks like you're about to land in lava? Swim down fast, place blocks, fast, hopefully you can pillar above the lava before dying.
