governorkeagan,

I corrected the post, thanks for calling it out! It’s fine when locked but the issue happens when logged out.

governorkeagan,

Unfortunately, I’m having to use X11 because of work (context). Thanks for the help!

governorkeagan,

I can’t remember where I found it, but here it is. I thought it might be from here (I’ve used these previously) but it is not.

governorkeagan,

I’ve got Silverblue installed on my laptop, could I then rebase to uBlue and get the benefits of using uBlue over Silverblue?

governorkeagan,

Has anyone used this?

governorkeagan,

I just wish it had a window capture mode.

governorkeagan,

Popsicle from Pop!_OS is also very good - really simple. I’m not sure if it can create a bootable Windows USB though.

github.com/pop-os/popsicle

Fedora Media Writer is also another good option.

governorkeagan,

Is this being downvoted because of a YouTube link?

governorkeagan,

Makes sense. Thanks for explaining

governorkeagan,

I only found it recently and it’s saved me so much time with being able to take screenshots of whole web page elements.

Gnome extension on KDE?

I know the title sounds a little strange but hear me out. The time tracking software I use for work doesn’t work on Wayland, unless I’m using Gnome as my DE. They have an extension that allows it to work in this case. Personally, I don’t enjoy Gnome on my desktop (I use it on my laptop). Is there a way for me to get the...

governorkeagan,

Pretty much. My company has it set to track the following:

  • Periodic screenshots
  • Mouse and keyboard activity
  • Apps used
  • URLs visited

All of this is combined to determine how active you were (as a percentage), you can then try and determine how much time was spent on productive vs non-productive work. However, we use it as a glorified timesheet.

governorkeagan,

It’s not open source. I just added it to codeberg for easy sharing to ask this question

governorkeagan,

It takes screenshots that get posted to a user dashboard for management to check if needed.

governorkeagan,

Yes I am.

governorkeagan,

Sure! I’ve added it to the post as well.

governorkeagan,

lol, love that

governorkeagan,

That was my thought initially as well. Just install the OS you want, how you want.

governorkeagan,

Did you look at the timestamps? I posted my question here before this particular response from the OP. I asked the question on Lemmy out of interest and wanting to get a wider perspective.

I also engaged with the OP on the thread so that I can get their perspective on their stance.

governorkeagan,

I’m of the same opinion as you. I tried to understand why OP has said opinion (that’s why I posted here and engaged with them). Thank you for positively adding to the conversation.

governorkeagan,

This looks very tempting!

governorkeagan,

I am no expert, please correct me if I’m wrong

From what I understand, it’s like Nix but Arch based. The /system.yaml file contains all of the packages installed on the system.

governorkeagan,

THERE IS NO PERFORMANCE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LINUX DISTRIBUTIONS

tbh, I’ve always had that feeling but never had enough experience with Linux to be 100% certain.

governorkeagan,

How’s Bazzite if gaming is not your main “thing”? I use my PC for work and video editing but I also enjoy gaming on the weekends if I get the chance. I’m happy with EndeavourOS, just curious.

governorkeagan,

That’s good to know, thank you! I’ve got Silverblue running on a low end laptop and it’s been great.

governorkeagan,

That’s really interesting!

governorkeagan,

good bot

governorkeagan,

Which you can use in conjunction with LibRedirect

Any advice for a long-time Linux user, first-time Linux *desktop* user?

I’m a regular user of Linux systems but apart from a couple of test Ubuntu installs many years ago they’ve always been containers or VMs with no DE which I can throw away when I break them. The Steam Deck showcasing how far Wine/Proton has come combined with Windows being Windows has given me the push; I’ve made a Mint...

governorkeagan,

Than you for such detailed response! I find it incredibly useful to pickup on extra nuggets of information even if the question was not directly applicable to me.

governorkeagan,

I’ve been trying to figure out a way to use vanilla Firefox instead but also have a web panel like Floorp. Being able to open and close a webpage on the side like that is pretty handy. Vivaldi has the same feature but I don’t want to use that.

governorkeagan,

I have not, I’m using Standard Notes at the moment. I’ll have a look at QOwnNotes though, thanks for the recommendation

governorkeagan,

True but isn’t it safe to assume the OP meant desktop (considering the community)? There aren’t that many people using Linux phones.

I suppose since more than one response is related to mobile apps, it’s not a safe assumption that the OP intended for desktop apps/programs.

governorkeagan,

You should try Organic Maps.

governorkeagan,

My thought exactly

governorkeagan,

For the most part, that works fine. It’s more of a convenience feature since I can quite easily switch between different sites I have saved in the panel.

governorkeagan,

I agree with pretty much everything you’ve said. My biggest reason for not using Vivaldi is due to it being based on chromium. I’m trying to do my best to reduce the market share of chromium based browsers

governorkeagan,

tuptime: I’ve been looking for something like this

governorkeagan,

I used Obsidian extensively at a previous job. The linking of notes was super helpful! I don’t think it’ll work as well for my needs at the moment (at work) but I’ll give it a go

governorkeagan,

Mainly data entry. I’m writing bullet form (pro for Logseq) justifications that the QA uses to understand my ratings (the data entry aspect). I will occasionally work on the same task so I open up the original note and just add to it.

I know that I could use Logseq to link - [[link]] - the different task projects together (maybe). Something like Project -> individual task.

My notes look like this currently:


<span style="color:#323232;">A: 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">- some thoughts
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">B: 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">- more thoughts
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">C: 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">- this is bad
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">D: 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">- this is good
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span>

I would then copy and paste all of that into a text box on our system (per task) where the QA can use that to understand my ratings of the task. My role title is Advanced AI Data Trainer, it sounds more impressive than it is. It’s glorified data entry.

governorkeagan,

Have you tried LocalSend? It’s worked great for sending stuff to and from my phone and PC

governorkeagan,

That looks really good!

governorkeagan,

One of us, one of us!

Jokes aside, it’s always nice reading stories like this. Even if I’m still a noob myself.

governorkeagan,

I second EndeavourOS. Installation is dead simple and it’s given me no issues (that weren’t caused by me tinkering) over the last few months.

governorkeagan,

Couldn’t agree more. Been using Linux daily since October last year.
