Yeah. Makes me love jorge and team maintaining ublue even more.

Currently, gnome has moved away from eye of Gnome to Image Viewer/Loupe. The website doesn’t have the dependencies though I don’t think you should need the gnome-desktop package. Perhaps you can look into it. Just be aware that the app is pretty barebones for now.

Edit - Alternatively, you could look into gwenview which is normally shipped in kde. That will have the advantage of shipping with a lot more editing options and since it is a more mature(I think is the right word) project, I expect it to have better support for esoteric file formats.

Can you share any study for this. If this is true, it is fascinating and worth looking into in more depth

That same logic could be applied for the save and discard button. Should there be a bigger gap between them lest somebody misclick and discard things instead of saving them¿? Atleast in the case where they accidentally click cancel instead of discard, they are not losing any data.

Hell if this really about data safety, discard/don’t save should be the isolated button because it is the only destructive option

Here’s the thing: Apple’s design you’ll find that they carefully included an extra margin between the “Don’t Save” and “Cancel” buttons. This avoid accidental clicks on the wrong button so that people don’t lose their work when they just want to click “Cancel”.

And gnome has those dialogs in a different colour to achieve easily noticable differentiation between the two options

I don’t know if that would be possible with SoCs. I think if you were able to create a design where the whole SoC was upgraded, that would be more likely to exist.

Doesn’t help that the date based release looks a lot like semantic versioning which a confusing a lot of people. Should’ve just used Ubuntu’s standard of ‘yy.mm’ instead of ‘yy.m’

Yeah you are right. For some reason I thought I had seen 24.1 but i was mistaken. Stupid naming scheme this since 24.2 and 24.8 sound like v2 and v8 of the 24.x release. Should have just used 24.mm just like the rest of the foss world does and as you suggested it should be

Wait doesn’t ublue have the gnome apps installed as flatpaks¿? I have always rebased silverblue to ublue because I have had trouble with the ublue installer - some efi issues in grub

I don’t think it is based on the release month

If you want a stock gnome experience from the ublue image (like the one you get from silverblue), look for the ublue-main image

Thanks I will try it then

Sorry I should have mentioned that this is the integrated screen of a laptop

I am on ublue which is immutable. Do appimages work normally on immutable distros¿?

You can buy modern Intel i9s to replicate your experience

TW also has the issue of having ‘controversial’ software like the media codecs, etc not being included OOTB due to licensing concerns.

Well @Guenther_Amanita@feddit.de suggested bazzite as it is the image built for gamers and OP is asking about nobara which is also packaged specifically for gamers. In general though all the ublue images are great

Still I am finding it difficult to believe that just being battery aware has taken battery usage from 50℅ per hour to 1.4℅ per hour

No I am still working on this. Thanks for the advice. I was having trouble with hdparm because I didn’t have enough information about with sectors are bad. Was trying to use ddrescue to make a map. Thanks for the resources

Well the way the workspaces and the overview work is completely different which means that workflow is night and day different. Not to mention how the differences in how floating windows work, what role the top panel plays and things like that.

They might look similar just like how KDE ‘looks’ similar to windows but that is only true at the surface level. The way the desktops behave and hence the workflow is very different in each case
