I use VSCodium in Distrobox daily on Alpine Linux, and it works flawlessly. I don’t experience the problem you encounter but I use KDE Plasma which I suppose handles it differently.
I am however looking into slowly moving over to KDE’s Kate for development, my laptop really doesn’t like opening multiple chrome instances for the various instances of VSCodium and then also an Android emulator on top of that.
Trippy. I was just tempted to make a post asking about how hard it would be in rust to make a program with high end security and privacy. I decided not to, but then starting to wonder if memory could be put onto the swap file and then edited, and they this post showed up. I thought clearly, without a doubt they would make the swap system near perfect and i shouldn’t worry about that. haha
I thought that slock was too complicated so I wrote a tiny one for myself in Go using xgb. Less than 100 lines and pretty straightforward but it makes some assumption about my personal setup so not public. <a href=""></a> <a href=""></a>
I use arch because i like to do research mess with things and is fun, manjaro that’s what i would suggest anyone moving to Linux it’s just that good of a distro to use and mostly sre trolls so let them be.
Still haven’t gotten around to setting one up but I plan to. Speaking of which, recommendations for Wayland screen lockers that can also act as a screensaver?
xubuntu. stable and apps are reasonably up to date. i’ll probably switch to mint with the whole snaps thing though. fedora is the one distro i never tried in my distro hopping phase though so…
Been using Linuxmint as daily driver now for 2-3 years. I can do all my remote work needed (Outlook using Prospect Mail, MS Teams, Slack, Zoom, Libre/OnlyOffice).
Also Steam gaming on Linux has vastly improved incl everything that works with Proton. RocketLeague and a few others I always play run perfect within proton, and I’ve found lot of Linux native A-titles like Tomb Raider, Dying Light,Payday2 and Warhammer that all run awesome and gave kickass graphics running natively.
TIMESHIFT has been a life saver a few times when I was messing with various AMD graphics drivers (kisak) and custom kernel like XanMod. Knock on wood it’s been almost a year since any major issues though. But I know I can roll back a day or two (or max, a week) and have everything restored and running within a few hours. It’s awesome.
Yes, they’ll stop supporting older packages and kernels. No reason not to. In situations where it’s needed, like LTS distros, they get security fixes backported to them and that’s about it. Not really daily driver stuff.
