exFAT supports R&W between approximately Linux 3+, Windows 8+, and Android 13+. It should also support macOS. NTFS is significantly more reliable and functional, but only supports R&W on specific Android apps, is read-only on macOS, but is perfectly usable on new versions of Linux, and Windows 7+.

Those criticisms seem reasonable. Regarding package signing, are you referring to https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/613#issuecomment-134361033? Additionally, that default for pip seems veritably insane. I understand using system packages, but modifying packages outside the virtual environment is definitely weird.

I use OpenSUSE, because it has YaST, which is basically the Control Panel in Windows. Without it, I'd have to use the terminal. It also installs on just about anything.
LW?
The navigation bar disappearing and the mobile data connection needing manual re-enablement affects me too. I don't think anyone has posted about them on the forum yet, though.
If only CalyxOS supported the Google Play Store, I would use that.
I wish FreeDesktop would standardize CLIs taking their application colours from the user theme so that colourblindness is catered for.
Yeah, my experience with Element and a Matrix.org account is that it's sluggish. However, it's been better at Beeper, so I'm uncertain whether it's intrinsic to Matrix or merely Matrix.org and/or Element's servers.
I used it yesterday, via Pidgin. I'm rokejulianlockhart@xmpp.jp. Why else would I have referenced it? Don't tell me what I've done. That's not a way to have productive conversations.
Regardless, I can't provide any more technical insight than that - I know solely that the clients provide so much more functionality that irrespective of the protocol, it's better in practice. Fedora, openSUSE, the Bundeswehr, NATO, and Beeper - all chose Matrix over XMPP, not least partially because of Element (which they also all chose).
Can you elaborate?
Its bridges are FOSS, but its client (an Element fork) doesn't appear to be.
I don't believe that its existence causes more fragmentation than it remediates. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36939482 explains why I consider Matrix fundamentally superior most (if not all) uses, although in practice it's because the clients (Element and FluffyChat primarily) are cross-platform and support a generally uniform set of features, in comparison to the aged (but glorious) Pidgin, and its counterparts.
Where did you get that from? I haven't found a relevant blog post.

I agree wholeheartedly. Do you end up checking your e-mails for FP employee responses to the Forum posts?
Yes, per https://lemmy.ml/post/1895271
Yep, on the Forum they're nowhere to be found, usually. I'm the reporter of the screen ghosting issue. Have you tried Support though? They offered me an RMA.
Thanks.
I agree with the first sentence, but the second is wrong due to Proton, and the third is demonstrably wrong if you take a look at their GitHub. Windows Caldulator is better than anything Linux has, and WinGet is a decent attempt at making Windows finally have a native package manager.
WinGet even does manage packages like you'd expect when installing and uninstalling MSIX packages, and the ease of merely requesting manifests even beats the OBS.
Of course they're making good software. Why wouldn't they be? They're a competent software development company that much of the world chooses to rely upon. There's gonna be a reason for it. System admins on a whole generally aren't totally stupid.
Even whilst Balmer was CEO, some under-the-hood Windows and Azure changes were quite impressive. He merely screwed up everything he was able to touch, which admittedly was an absolute tonne.
Once the opposite occurred to me. Fedora overwrote my Windows installation. Dual-booting isn't safe.
Why is that preferable over Matrix?
