I've really never run into issues running pop on non S76 hardware. I know they upstream quite a bit as well, but I know there is some "tension" between them and the Gnome devs.

I don't think long term support will be an issue at all.

Pop!_OS is what I keep falling back to. It helps that I use a System76 Thelio and a HP Dev One.

iPhone here.

Even though I use Linux on my laptops/desktop I feel as if the ancillary Apple ecosystem cannot be beat. I use the Apple TV along with it and it just works too well and without ads. Not to mention the Apple Watch

I also have my diabetic equipment paired to it. My insulin pump and glucose monitor work with my phone. (Only supported on iPhone atm)

I replied to him on twitter, but posting it here too just to share with others

This might sounds dumb, but a Thelio that was oriented more horizontally? For a HTPC or home game console type setup? The new steam update adds hardware acceleration and the new gamepadui and I kinda want a PC in my living room instead of an Xbox/PS5

The Eve Weather is one option.

There is a community KDE spin in the works, with a more up to date plasma experience. https://fosstodon.org/@pop_os_kde_spin

No, the new COSMIC will be built on rust and iced

Yeah same. I like the idea, the concept, and from their blog posts the execution. I just wonder if we will see an app community around rust/iced/slint or if we will be using other apps from other toolkits. (Which isn't a bad thing, but an ecosystem is good)

Yeah I know. I put LOTS of hours back when it worked on earlier version of proton-GE. I keep hoping

If only they would bring the same support to Realm Royale and Paladins.

Realm is a great alternative to Fortnite for those that like that style of game

I use the two pretty differently, so I think I'll continue upgrading/refreshing my PC for a while.

I have used Linux for awhile and settled on pop!_OS for my home desktop/laptop use.
