Please recommend me some blogs about Linux or FOSS or similar that you follow through RSS.
Hi. I have a category Little Tech Blogs in my rss reader where I put those cool niche blogs mostly about Linux, FOSS, programming, etc… Many of them I found by articles linked in this community, so I was wondering if you guys know about more blogs like that. By little I mean it’s run by one person or a small group of people,...
Advice on switching from Kubuntu to EndeavourOS?

Help deciding Os
Hi, I’m learning python and I have purchased a 2015 MacBook air. I want to install Linux on it (Ubuntu) but my friend who’s a developer told me to leave the MacOs because they are similar as operative systems. What do you think? Should I change the os and switch to Linux? Thanks. Edit: thank you for your replies. There are...

Anyone been daily driving Bazzite?
Been keeping a keen eye on Bazzite as it seems like a good distro for people like myself who mainly use the desktop pc to play games on. But it doesn’t seem like a “typical” distro for a daily driver? How does Bazzite for example differ from Nobara which is another gaming-oriented distro? I’m just curious as I keep...

KDE: update icon thinks I have a light plasma theme (imgur.com)
Since I upgraded all my devices to KDE 6 I have this weird issue with my laptop and media PC. The software update icon that sits in the tray and starts Discover seems to think I’m using a light plasma theme. It’s only this one icon, and it’s the same for all icon themes. I do not have this issue on my desktop, which has...

NixOS for gamedev
Hiya! I’m following a gamedev degree in university. It’s been a major challenge doing it from Linux, as everything is Windows stuff (.sln Visual Studio projects, DirectX API, excel graphs…). However I’ve gotten by by making my own tools and dipping into WINE when it gets too difficult. I’m replacing my laptop due to...
Bluetooth signal strength problems in Linux Mint
I’ve been having some issues with my network card on my new Minisforum UM690S. The issue is related to both WiFi and Bluetooth, but seeing as I have now a cabled connection for internet (and it will stay that way), I am really just in need of solving this for the Bluetooth-issue. I’ve been trying to figure out how to solve...
Is the snapshot, I rolled back to using Snapper, still taking space?
A few months ago, I rolled back to a previous btrfs snapshot using Snapper. Now I am constantly running out of space, no matter how many packages I delete and I’m wondering if that is the reason. The snapshot list looks like this:...
LibreELEC setup?
How much experience do you guys have with LibreElec? I’ve been playing with Kodi on and off for years and years, but am looking at this to replace a fleet of rokus at the house after the recent terms debacle. Anyone have recommendations for UI and usage tweaks to make it easier for the family to use?...
VMWare black screen after installing all updates with Fedora Linux
So I’m trying to play around with Fedora in a VM with VMWare Workstation Player (v17.5.1) but I’m running into a problem I don’t know how to solve.

Speakers don't work on Galaxy book with Linux.
I have a Galaxy Book (2017) that I recently installed Kubuntu on and discovered that the speakers don’t work, after some research it seems I’m not the only one who had this issue. Others have been able to fix the speakers using sof-firmware and verb lists, I’ve tried using lists for ALC298 but it still isn’t working, I...
