that just pushes away the problem ,it doesn't solve it. I still hit that limit when i ran a big compile while some other programs were using a lot of memory.

Please don't erase all the groundwork they've done over the years to make it possible for these later enhancements to happen. It wasn't like they were twiddling their thumbs this whole time!

That's not my intention at all. It's just frustrating how little of it translates to impact that's readily felt by end users, including those of us without technical inclination.

It did and was, it was just something that built up over time as more and paper cuts and small things got fixed. So even if it didn't feel like things were changing, they were.

I've been "gaming" on linux for a long time, and you could see the slow march of progress as more and more stuff worked, and more and more stuff got faster.


yes it is possible with rust, python, php, and likely many others

what is missing was a replacement for the flash editor itself, not the format.

critical at build time, not runtime


Swappiness and many others can be changed by some sort of system preset rather built that way. I know not ALL options can be done that way, but I'd want to see changes start there where feasible.


there were many of us who really liked gnome 3 though. Not that it was issue free, but the workflow was very appealing.


Sure, I quite enjoy it myself now. But I'd be lying if I said it wasn't borderline unusable for years.


i don't have a problem recommending people use bazzite because of the nature of the whole system. It makes it harder for regular users to break it, while making it easy(er) to rollback.


but how did we get the priorities?


anti-cheat is one thing, but i'm not aware of any DRM that doesn't work on linux? I know denuvo is one of the most popular ones and it definitely does
