Redditors, how do you like Lemmy?
It's looking great! I joined just 2 days ago and the communities I subscribed to are already looking much more lively today. Thanks, Reddit blackout!
Also written in Rust, btw :)

All the core tools are actually a single executable with many symlinks to it, which makes the distro very compact. This makes it very nice as a base for Docker images.

Explicit sync Wayland protocol has finally been merged!
Reply in thread
Yes, but that's bound to be merged quickly, the protocol itself was the main holdup from what I understand.

There's a difference between source available and open source. For example, actually being allowed to distribute modified versions is pretty damn important:
Restrictions
- No Distribution of Modified Versions: You may not distribute modified versions of the software, whether in source or binary form.
- No Forking: You may not create, maintain, or distribute a forked version of the software.
- Official Distribution: Only the maintainers of the official repository are allowed to distribute the software and its modifications.

Well, this is the root cause of this specific issue if you treat nvidia's part of the stack as some barely changable black box (which is what it is right now). It's not that I disagree open source drivers would be better, I just already own an nvidia GPU :/

How often do I have to buy a new pixel if I fully degoogle with GrapheneOS? A support question
You can probably expect GOS support as long as Google supports the device, that is the main limitation. For the newer Pixels that is promised to be 7 years after release.
Going by this table, Pixel 6 is currently the oldest to get full GOS updates
That matches Google's software support

Motorola partners with GrapheneOS for future phones

They don't need to stop, GrapheneOS will just be an officially supported alternative OS. Their own Android flavour can still be as full of crap as ever.

Unfortunately, what email has also shown is that platforms can develop much faster than protocols. I hope all works out for lemmy in the end, but it will be interesting.

Nouveau should have already been fine, this should fix the proprietary driver's issues. AFAIK this is a core issue of the proprietary driver, so should affect all cards.
I tried Wayland on my 16xx series GPU, Electron apps were only annoying, but games were unplayable. The desktop itself and Wayland native apps worked fine, though.

Stupid question, but what makes Linux, linux?
Reply in thread
The open source licences of Linux and the BSDs allow verbatim copying. That's kind of the point of OSS.
In fact, Mac OS is a verbatim copy of a BSD.

I suspect most of the resource usage is LSP plugins, so equivalently configured neovim should be about the same, really. If you use VSCode as a plain text editor, it does not use that much RAM.

Hardening Arch Linux
SELinux is a pain on Arch, it actually working nicely could be viewed as Fedora's killer feature.

Ubuntu explores replacing gnu utils with rust based uutils
Reply in thread
All the kernel Rust code is GPL, so you can leave that slippery slope alone. MIT licenced core utils just leave the door open to eventually using them in the BSDs as well.
