Maybe with zRAM and a bit of swap it could run quite ok 🤷

That makes a lot of sense👍

But the future is inevitable, isn't it better to be less pessimistic and attempt to be prepared for it instead of just waiting?

It's not like I hate it but it felt like a review target for a specific audience and with little journalistic work. I was a bit disappointed because he is often refered to be one of the most serious and unbiaised tech reviewers on the internet.

But yeah, that was a first impression indeed.

I think there was some ethical drama in his company a while ago, which might have been recently answered 🤷‍♂️

I personally didn't like the very few videos I saw of him, it looked like g@mer consumerist obsessions. The latest I saw was about the last Fairphone release and he was very critical about what I'd call very reasonable design choices, like capping the screen to 60Hz instead of max 90 by default, or having to turn the phone off to swap SD card. This video felt like it was not an honest criticism or intended to a very niche audience (eg. hot swapping SD cards might be critical in the eyes of someone producing video content).

Although shaming newcomers for their distro choice is not a welcoming move 💢

😢

I don't believe it either, I think they said it wouldn't arrive before 2025 :/

But I want it soooo much, the OLED version looks awesome but it's no an upgrade big enough to justify getting rid of my original version

Could it mean Steam Deck 2 already? 🤞

Although it depends of the backup format :

• If you store compressed tarballs they won't be of any benefits.
• If you copy whole directory as is, the filesystem-level compression and ability to deduplicate data (eg. with duperemove) are likely to save A LOT of storage (I'd bet on a 3 times reduction).

Didn't GNOME support Wayland way earlier than KDE ?

That's what saved me too but I'm still stuck with unpredictable crashes, 150GB of HDD / 8GB of RAM lost in the void and bullshit ads for copilot in the lock screen ...

Thanks for the background, as a very recent nix adopter this drama seems like a lot 😥
