I like the idea of immutable distros a lot, but I realised they are not for me, at least not now.

I couldn’t install global themes because the SDDM is immutable. There is a workaround, but it didn’t work 100% for me.

I couldn’t get Steam to put shortcuts on the desktop (it’s a known thing, simply I didn’t know it). It only worked with Bazzite which comes with Steam preinstalled. But then I couldn’t edit these shortcuts (for example: -silent) because if I did, they would vanish.

Then I experimented with Waydroid. There was something I wanted to test but couldn’t use the online advice because Bazzite/Aurora doesn’t have dnf for example.

There were other little things I’m used to tinker on my system and couldn’t so I realised, I wanna stick with other distros for the moment.

Mine is set to expire: Expires / Max-Age:“Fri, 23 Aug 2024 06:40:27 GMT” - so that’s in 7 days. Great find though!

Just did some digging - I cannot see that mentioned post on lemm.ee support. I can find the community but the last post that shows for me is from 3 months ago and when I search for the post’s title I get “no results”. Bit off-topic though, sorry.

Possibly, but I’m wondering why it’s only affecting Lemmy then? (I’m using Librewolf that’s based on Firefox)

No not at all, I just said that because I’m often under the impression that many people never search before posting and it sometimes annoys me so I try not to make the same mistake :D. I still miss the old forum days where we had that Bart Simpson meme.

Thanks for piecing it together, it might be a problem for more users, I’m relieved to read it’s not only happening to me!

Thanks! I was searching for posts before I posted but hadn’t found that post.

Edit: that post suggests to clear cookies - I’ve tried that twice on two machines, same problem still.

Refreshing logs me out when I’m logged in and does nothing when I’m logged out.

I used to have it from time to time too, but now it’s every single time and that’s inconvenient.

Same discussion from 4 days ago with the link to the respective Github issue: https://lemmy.ml/post/18936433

Invidious is facing the same problem, there’s issues on both Githubs since June.

The game itself was for me mid - not good not bad, but the ending? I can’t believe no one mentioned it yet, that was the most impressive ending I’ve experienced in a game ever. Without spoilers, for those who played it, the piano notes and then darkness, I couldn’t believe it, it was so good.

Thank you for this. I think it’s good practice not to post plain codes but to obfuscate them in some way so that they are not snatched by bots. Not sure if this a big problem on Lemmy though.

I heard that in Homer Simpson’s voice.

I’m also interested in openSUSE, but what held me back from Tumbleweed was the statement on their Wiki: “If you don’t know how to compile your own additional kernel modules and you don’t wish to learn or keep a very close eye on what is being updated, please don’t use Tumbleweed.” (https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Tumbleweed)

But here people say it “just works” and it’s a great distro. I’m torn :), I’d like to try it, but I’m not sure I wanna follow all updates all the time to make sure it runs fine.

Thank you, this is great. I will keep it in mind next time I post something about NOYB.

I do that quite often - turn down the difficulty and simply enjoy the story. Sometimes, when a game is very long for example, but I still love the characters and the story, I watch one of those “game movies” of people who made different choices or followed different paths.
