I don’t know the exact process, but I think its still based on the original, with the changes and additions on top of it. So it depends on the FreeTube team to keep up. I imagine its similar how the Firefox forks work, that still depend on the original Firefox.


You could suggest it to the new fork. Maybe he implements it.


That’s why I don’t like closed source proprietary. They decide to stop the support.


“Brodie” mentioned. To be fair on the Arch side, they are clear the system could break with an update and you should always read the Arch news in case of manual intervention. You can’t fault Archlinux for users not following the instructions. This is pretty much what Arch stands for.


Given the end of Windows 10 and how many are not happy with Windows 11, its probably an thing the community themselves is responsible for. Also lot of popular YouTubers make videos about Linux, which surely contributes to the popularity increase of the topic in YouTube. I wouldn’t attribute this perceived change to YouTube itself.


Distrowatch list is just how many people click the page on Distrowatch. It’s not a general metric how many people use it.


How can you say a distribution is the best? There are lot of use cases where many distributions are optimized for. They are just not an allrounder general one like “Ubuntu” in example. There should be some categories, at least some popular categories like “Gaming” that is separate from “General Purpose” or “Server”.
I’m surprised Bazzite was not mentioned. I’m glad EndeavourOS was mentioned.

Oh Google… Someone should sue you too then.


I can see a new film; Terminator: Rise of the Vending Machines
Hmm. I was one of those who was interested in LibreWolf for long time. Just recently I had to give it a pass for different reason (but for comfort reason as you). Good to read experiences that talk about the “issues” too. I guess LibreWolf could be used for everything that does not require logging in into a website; in example random websites and websearch and so on. But then, maintaining and using two different browsers would be super annoying (for me).
There is also Waterfox, which got some update recently, with version number 6.6.6! I will look into this and how it compares to LibreWolf.
I was so close to accept LibreWolf and finally make the switch from Firefox. But sadly LibreWolf does not support saving in Browser passwords. Its because of security concerns, I get it. But look, I want to save passwords in the browser. And sadly this killed LibreWolf for me.


I was a bit reluctant at first (pun intended)
I think this is the Reluctant Anarchist guy from YouTube? His writing style would match the way he talks in the videos.


It depends on the distribution. In example Manjaro was unstable for me, while EndeavourOS is stable for the most part. In fact, Manjaro was holding back packages and is less rolling release than EndeavourOS, and yet less stable (for me). :D


Exactly. The term “stable” in connection with software has the same problems of “free”; without understanding the context, it can be interpreted wrongly. “stable” type of distributions are meant to be “unchanging” in the sense of feature freeze. That off course depends on the distro or software in general how far this goes. Archlinux is “unstable” in the sense it is ever changing and adapting new technologies by breaking compatibility; something Debian does not.
I use Thunderbirds built-in RSS reader.


And they kind of give up looking for meaning on what others say.
Or use an Ai to summarize it…
Well Firefox recently integrated a full webpage translation, fully done local on your system. It works pretty well in my experience.
