I sometimes decide to try out YouTube Music for playing some of the music I have saved on YT in a more music focused UI.

Then I go back straight back to regular YouTube, because half the songs/music can't be played in YT Music (including offical music on official channels).

I feel like I get some good value out of YT Premium, but I don't understand YT Music.

Wayland+Plasma 5.27 feel pretty close to usable, so I’m hopeful that with Plasma 6 I can finally just pick Wayland and stick with it and not have to back to X11.

(With my usage and a NVIDIA card)

I’m very excited about this! Sync was my preferred client on my Android phones, so I’m definitely looking forward to this.

This update is insane. The old one was okish and maybe a bit plain (but I didn’t hate it). This new one is in a completely different league.

Also, I’m super happy to see Pako involved.

I'm honestly looking forward to COSMIC Files.

I think Nautlius looks really nice, but it feels so limited. Dolphin got basically all the functionality I need, but it looks... meh.

Is a terminal toggle like Dolphin got (with F4) on the road map? Or will it be extendable so that features like that could be added by others?

Thanks! Seems to be working fine so far.

I just love seeing (feeling) good use of haptics.

There's still a few subreddits that I'll continue to follow, but it'll be in lurker-only mode and no interaction and no adblock whitelist. My 13-year old main account will be nuked.

If Reddit had acted less crap and unprofessional with these API changes and actually treated 3rd party devs with a minimum of respect, even if 3rd party clients ultimately died anyway, I might have continued and just stuck with old.reddit.com or something. But they didn't.

Wayland on GNOME (on Nobara 37) worked well enough for my use that I completely forgot it was using Wayland.

For KDE (on openSUSE Tumbleweed), that I’m currently using, I had to go back to Xorg but I have high hopes for Plasma 6.

This is better than it has any right to be

It's very useful, but occasionally I'm not able to install some distro using ventoy and have to give it its own dedicated USB stick. Most works fine though.

The tiling redesign looks interesting.

My tiling needs are very, very, modest, so I’m mostly happy with the new built-in one in KDE and never really took the time to learn Pop OS tiling. Seems like I’ll have to give it another go when Cosmic is released for more general testing.

Gotta start somewhere!

Running Tumbleweed on my desktop, and it's working out pretty well. I did check out MicroOS Desktop (before it changed to Aeon) and it was pretty neat, but I got a few pieces of hardware that needs extra drivers, so decided to stick with Tumbleweed anyway.

15:00 CEST. I might actually be able to watch this live. Looking forward to it!
