Very true. I thought Pop!OS would be easier for me to use and get things to work and in some ways it was, steam didn't give me grief like Fedora's KDE spin did.

I had issues with Pop!OS as well, and after switching to Kubuntu, performance is much better.

It was likely due to the Gnome extensions I was using but without them, Pop!OS just felt really unfriendly to me. I like to be able to tweak everything, its one of the reasons why I switched to Linux in the first place and Pop!os just feels way too locked down compared to KDE. Like you mentioned, it kinda felt like I was fighting it at times, especially trying to change the file manager. What a fucking headache, never got that to work either.

Aside from that, Pop is a decent distro, and I think cosmic is going to make it a lot better because Gnome is really the biggest sore spot IMO.

Yea took me a minute to figure that one out. I'm really not thrilled with how Samsung does most things in their UI. I'm def going to switch to a pixel for Graphene OS not only for privacy but just for a more normal android experience.

My biggest gripe is that I can't put AM and PM next to the time in 12hr format. Why? I know I can use 24hr format but I don't want to, I should be able to do something this simple without rooting or loading a samsung galaxy app from their proprietary store. Ew.

So many phone manufacturers make the weirdest choices man.

No worries man, I'm just very particular about how my phone works so I play with a loooot of settings haha.

Sorry I didn't read the other question as well and I had to figure out how to turn on edge panels lol.

Click the pen icon at the bottom of the panel, then click the 3 dot menu at the top, from there, you can remove the default options like the ai select by unchecking them.

Toggle live notifications for "media player" in your settings. I also just got this new update.

I dont like it. Idk why Samsung made everything more appleish but not into it.

I taught my boi to meow at me when I come around a corner or pop out from behind a door frame. Kinda like our version of peekaboo.

I'm known as the "spreadsheet" guy at my work since I've done a lot of upgrades to our existing tools and or made new ones. I'm learning coding just doing that through app script and am toying around with some game Dev ideas in godot but this sounds super interesting. Thanks for sharing.

As a artist myself, I think a community dedicated to artists that allows for self promotion would make more sense rather than in already established communities if it doesn't fit into that communities theme or purpose. So a gaming focused community with a day for game Devs to post about their game makes sense, or a music community where self promo is allowed for an account every few months etc.

As much as I love looking at other peoples work, appreciating their art, and sharing my own, I'm also very mindful that not everyone wants to have that kind of thing in a community dedicated to something else like this one. Self promo stuff can be awesome when someone is passionate about their work but it also can be very spammy type of stuff where someone is a bit too enthusiastic about posting about their album EVERY month.

Thats just my opinion. Nothing wrong with your post asking about it just to be clear.

Lol yea as much as I love my fat idiot, he's old and would rather get pets from a killer than fight anyone.

He's very loving but he's not a fighter. He's only ever reacted negatively to one sears repairman. No idea why.

Good point. Dark times indeed.

 

Howdy all, so I've been looking to buy a 3D printer for a while now and now that I've got some money for it, ive been looking at the Ender 3 V3 SE as it seems to be a good sub $300 printer from the reviews.

However, I've heard that there were some bed leveling issues with it after a firmware update and I've been trying to find information if this has beem fixed or not yet.

So to anyone that has an Ender 3 V3 SE, has this been resolved? Is it ongoing? If it is, I'll likely buy something else as I'm just getting into 3D printing and I'd rather not tinker with it a ton.

 

I control my media pc running Popos with a remote mouse/keyboard combo I found on Amazon and while this works pretty good, I would like a more "big picture mode" like experience that works well with using a remote.

I know theres some distros out there that are geared specifically for a media pc but I don't wanna reinstall my system. My internet is painfully slow at times and drops out frequently (yay for rural America) so even doing system updates can take a long time or just time out. I'd rather not babysit my pc to get everything working again how i want it so if I could find just a desktop environment to use that would be great. If not, such is life.

So far, Plasma bigscreen looked the most promising: https://plasma-bigscreen.org/ but any recommendations would be helpful. I've tried looking some up myself but searching the web has become pretty useless for something more niche or specific like this and I figure the good people on here would have better advice anyways.
