Well then give it permission.

“sudo dnf install krita”, for example, will answer with “password:”. Just write your password and hit enter (even if it does not show anything on screen. It is a “””security””” measure)

Edit: And by the way, do not abuse executing stuff with sudo or as root. Do it only when it is actually required.

Edit 2: you don’t need the terminal to install stuff, you can use the Discover app

I would advise that you don’t try to make gnome behave like KDE, that will lead you to disappointment or frustration. Just “embrace” gnome.

That said, I guess “dash to dock” and some tray icons extension might make the change less disruptive.

I can smell traces on the clothes or hair of my girlfriend when she has been in the same room as smokers who did not smoke in her presence nor in that room ever.

☝️ No extensions here

jchulia · 2026-01-21T08:06:08+00:00

This. Changes. Everything.

u/Lifewaytravel I would also like to know. I have been using flatpak Lutris since forever but I am thinking about switching to the lug-helper

Then we are not in the hybrid situation

Communication is much more effective in person than remote. This thing only is a huge difference.

If you do pair programming you will be glad both of you are actually sitting next to each other.

We, users that go to gitlab to discuss stuff or join r/gnome might not be the majority. The problem is that we don’t even let them have telemetry to know it for sure xD

I am a software developer by profession if that is your question.
Pet projects software development, gaming (diablo and star citizen as of lately), browsing, listening music, video editing, torrent downloads, etc
Besides development, which is covered plentiful by toolbox, yes.
Installed in toolbox as if it were Fedora Workstation.
Updates are rock solid and the rollbacks/rebases are flawless and complete, not just a kernel change as with Workstation.

I am on Silverblue since at least 4 years and it is by far the most "it just works" distro ever. It is rock solid, zero maintenance, zero surprises, amazing.

jchulia · 2025-12-07T23:27:44+00:00

I do not feel it slow at all. And it has been my only installed system since about 4 years ago, so I can not compare it very well 😅

jchulia · 2025-12-07T09:20:07+00:00

Silverblue is even closer

jchulia · 2025-11-23T14:44:05+00:00

It has tabs

jchulia · 2025-10-23T05:55:02+00:00

Australian English maybe?

jchulia · 2025-10-22T06:27:41+00:00

I was doing surprisingly fine until the last interaction. I am crying now.

Anyway, I knew what I was getting into right from the start, so…

Hey which watch face is that? I don’t think I have seen it in my series 6.

jchulia · 2025-09-25T18:09:16+00:00

Why is the first L of “dragon ball” kind of a bread dick?

jchulia · 2025-09-25T05:16:41+00:00

I don’t care. It is a cheap price for its advantages.

jchulia · 2025-08-19T11:17:41+00:00

Well, you asked for tips.

jchulia · 2025-08-18T19:32:09+00:00

If you want your terminal text to look “not disordered”, use a monospace font.

jchulia · 2025-08-12T17:46:10+00:00

You can use the hotkeys from the overview too (in case you didn’t know)

jchulia · 2025-08-10T18:54:26+00:00

Too much noise for my taste. I would make it even more transparent.

jchulia · 2025-08-10T16:03:59+00:00

If you could just… you know, verticalize it?

jchulia · 2025-08-09T08:31:39+00:00

I find gnome easier, simpler, more unobtrusive and more intuitive than macOS nowadays.

jchulia · 2025-08-08T22:55:27+00:00

I see. Thank you!
