  • Yeah i just installed it and it makes more sense

  • So I guess my problem is that I'm used to Discord's paradigm. You have servers and in the servers you have chat rooms, video conference rooms, and DMs. it pretty much reflects what's on IRC.

    When it comes to Matrix, I have trouble making the parallel. Maybe because of the terminology?

    I was wondering if you could help me out in that regard. Knowing that I'm familiar with IRC and Discord, can you explain to me the different terminology in Matrix and how it works?

    FYI: Commet really is easier to navigate than Element.

  • I appreciate your help. I might reach out to you soon.

    Maybe I should also look up some YouTube videos about it. That always helps as well. 

  • Gee, thanks. That's so helpful. 🙄

  • Maybe that would help because I have a really hard time understanding how matrix works. 

  • I'd probably recommend a Mac for now. I can't in good judgement recommend windows anymore. 

    Mac is solid and still respects your privacy to a certain degree. 

    Linux would be my second. Probably Zorin OS.

  • I use it on a Surface Pro tablet. I gotta say for that usage context it's superior to KDE.

    On desktop, I really don't like it. It's missing so many basic features. Most distributions that have a default Gnome desktop have to ass extensions to make it more usable and closer to what people are used to. I'm thinking of Pop! Os or Zorin OS for example. 

    Zorin OS actually got Gnome right imo.

  • I firmly believe most people saying "Gnome sucks" just want a classical desktop metaphore. Which Gnome sucks at

    LOL! that's me 😅

    Honestly, Gnome is okay depending on the context. I think it's wonderful on my 1st gen Surface Pro tablet. Whereas KDE sucks. 

    But yeah,  most people are used to the classical desktop metaphorthat looks like every desktop since Win 95. I even changed the look and feel of my KDE with a tiled app launcher to make it work like. Win10 because I love the ergonomics.

    Coming from a Mac maybe people would be more at ease with Gnome though.

  • KDE is hands down the best desktop environment option there is on Linux right now. You gotta load up Gnome with hundreds of extension to even make it bearable and you get limited customizability.

  • Meh, why switch? Fedora is already pretty ahead while still being very stable.

    You lose that stability with a rolling distro. You'll end up having to spend your time fixing things more than enjoying your OS.

    I'd stick with fedora if I were you. 

  • Came here to say that

  • GNUcrosoft Lindows

  • Don't forget the shit in his pants, too. 

  • In most companies, your contract forbids you from talking about your employer on social platforms or in the media if it's going to affect the company's reputation.

  • I've completed the update and... just... WOW!

    What the fuck dude? Everything is so FAST now. Like it's almost predicting what I'm about to do. It's insane!

    And the games are WAAAY faster. Performance wise it's incredible. Holy shit!

  • Thanks for your advice! :)

  • Yeah, that was my philosophy. But there's been some really great advancements since 24.04. Especially with KDE Plasma. I kinda want to have some of those latest features from version 6.

    What distro did you end up moving to from Ubuntu?

  • Yeah. I don't want to keep up with changes and shit. I want something stable and hassle free. I don't have time to tinker with my OS anymore.

    So you think I shouldn't upgrade to 25.10 then?

  • Well I'm upgrading right now!
