They need to work on their branding. "Cloud Native" triggers images of subscription services and data mining. But the idea here is that the whole OS and its components are all sort of containerized, so you can just pull pre-configured "cloud" images that are guaranteed to work out of the box to your machine.

Weren't the devs also supposed to be adding the ability to rebind the overview to just the super key (like GNOME)? Is that still in the works?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding this, but their FAQ specifically says:

By default, your documents are stored inside the docker volume paperless_media. Docker manages this volume automatically for you.

It also says that documents are removed from the consumption directory, renamed, and put into a folder that you shouldn't modify.

And that's my problem with the project. I want to be able to keep my file name and organizational structure.

I think Ublue is only set to automatically check for updates once per day. If there were only a few updates available, it's possible your system just didn't check yet that day.

See if your /etc/rpm-ostreed.conf has automatic updates set to "stage." I think that should be the default.

See update section in this FAQ, which tells you what config disables automatic updates.

It's hard to explain until you've used it, but in my experience I think this is much different than a traditional Linux distro. Every other distro I've tried has (to some extent) dependencies that can get out of whack, configuration drift that makes it hard to get things to work sometimes, random codecs or drivers or other things you need to install to get a system working as it should, etc. In the "cloud native" model, all the packages, drivers, etc. are built and tested in the cloud. So when they arrive on your machine, they "just work" and updates are handled automatically - it's great. Maybe not great for tinkerers, but great for regular users who just want to use their computer.

Oh, that's very interesting. I knew about flak in the military context, but never realized it was the same word used in the idiom. The idiom actually makes a lot more sense now.

Amaze File Manager can do this.

You need to use amdgpu-pro, according to the page here. I tried installing the pro drivers on Linux Mint a few weeks ago and still couldn't get hardware acceleration in Handbrake to work, but it might be worth a shot.

Yes, I don't know all of the details, but most of the system config files like fstab and such are modifiable. I automount my NAS by putting a command in fstab.

I guess so. I hit the grub menu when booting and I see the image version changing there as well.

Has anyone gotten the Andriod app working? I installed the APK and it will activate from OpenBoard and show that it's listening, but it won't actually output anything into a text field.

Thanks for the tip, but I tried that. FUTO Voice Input method is enabled in the keyboard settings; microphone permissions are granted.When I press the voice input button on the keyboard it pops up and listens, but no output is entered into the text field. I do notice that anytime I have a text field open, I now have a pinned notification saying "Chose Input Method". Clicking on that and choosing Futo voice still leads to the same no output issue. Any other tips would be appreciated.

You're getting a lot of flack in these comments, but you are absolutely right. All the concerns people have raised about "AI" and the recent wave of machine learning tech are (mostly) valid, but that doesn't mean AI isn't incredibly effective in certain use cases. Rather than hating on the technology or ignoring it, the FOSS community should try to find ways of implementing AI that mitigate the problems, while continuing to educate users about the limitations of LLMs, etc.

I experimented with self hosting RSSHub a while back and I do believe you could get past rate limiting on Instagram by configuring the app with your personal Instagram account credentials. I think those without an Instagram account were advised to follow pages via the Pikuki route instead.
