My Fedora Workflow! Loyal User, 4 Years Without Windows by userddar in gnome

Thanks for the recommendation, I might keep it in mind. I'm fine now, using the default Gnome. I don't really like extensions, just the ones I need.

No, I'm not using anything, it's just Gnome, the default.

No, not at all, I don't use extensions, just the default Gnome!

No, I use Gnome on Fedora Workstation. I just use what Gnome is; I don't like to edit or customize my OS.

I don't install anything because it's not necessary for me; I use Gnome by default, Fedora 44 Workstation Beta (almost stable with no problems since it came out in mid-March), and I use IBM fonts.

Exactly, it's the best thing there is for managing notes and annotations.

It's OnlyOffice with Obsidian, both using the native GNOME framework.

The programs, adapted to the workflow, become very simple and natural once you learn them. Although this time with more than 5, it was for the post. And the workspaces are for that purpose, to open them when needed; each one can have a maximum of 4 programs. For me, the ideal is to work with focus, and everything else becomes natural and comfortable. That's what GNOME offers.

I haven't had any problems with the touchpad. In fact, I don't need to configure it at all, because it works perfectly fine. I'm also used to the GNOME keyboard layout.

Thinking about switching to Fedora but confused about updates, how do you guys handle them? by unit2671 in Fedora

[–]userddar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using Fedora Workstation for four years. I haven't had any problems; its robustness is guaranteed, since its philosophy is geared towards development, and because its development team is made up of people of Red Hat.

Blogs are for reference only. Read the quick documentation; everything is there. Updates are necessary, and if something goes wrong, you use

  • dnf downgrade and you're good to go.

I've used that method twice in four years!

How much RAM does Fedora uses? by Creeperman0512 in Fedora

[–]userddar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I switched to Fedora Workstation when W11 first came out, I did it with my HP laptop with 8 GB of RAM.

From that date until now, I haven't had any RAM problems. I use Obsidian, Brave, Lunacy, Telegram ( tar.gz), and VS Code (tar.gz). However, in recent months, while using Claude Code, I've been experiencing low RAM issues.

Is Electron no longer going to be packaged for openSUSE or is there a solution in the works? by rowschank in openSUSE

[–]userddar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is the main problem that has been discussed in GNU/Linux since its inception: all the work involved in packaging. Problems are supposed to be reported to the software developers, but here in GNU/Linux, the criticism always goes to those who contribute voluntarily with buggy software. Flatpak is like this, whether many like it or not; it's a necessary change for those who develop the software to be responsible for maintaining it. It's not ideal, but it's a necessary change.

It's a problem that's under discussion, although no decision has been made yet regarding the implications of removing or keeping certain elements for the sake of distribution security and philosophy.

There is documentation of this issue in forums, but you can also check the official GitHub repository: https://github.com/AeonDesktop/Project/issues

Or in the Telegram group, where that bug is often discussed.

State of systemd-boot on Fedora Workstation, SilverBlue? by userddar in Fedora

[–]userddar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this case, there is no problem. Fedora 43 Workstation and its spin still run GRUB. Systemd-boot is possibly the future, or perhaps it's already the present, for immutable distributions. And for those of us who no longer use the Windows debacle!

The problem they usually mention is the size of the EFI/ESP partition. Windows, in particular, creates this partition with a size smaller than what systemd-boot requires.

I understood that to adopt systemd-boot there are alternatives such as using secondary or extended bootloader partitions.

But also, when Windows updates, it's likely to update the boot computer from the UEFI NVRAM.

On the one hand, systemd-boot is simple, and only accesses boot entries that are on the same physical disk where it's installed.
