I wish I had even half the braincells required to understand the installation for this.

Does Spectacle work well with Wayland?

It was honestly the one thing I still have never found a feature parity Linux alt for after years; it will always bug me no matter what other “it’s basically the same” suggested player I use instead.

That said, currently I’m making do with Quodlibet, and I have no major complaints. But nothing is an exact replica enough for me not to constantly compare it to Wimamp & complain.

Not a serious suggestion, but I can confirm that WACUP does at least have no noticeable issues using WINE

You are also not indicative an entire category of potential new users. You are also clearly not the majority who I am referring to, no need to take it personally.

Right, but the fact of the matter is you can do most things on any distro, it’s very rare that any one distros is “really for” anything specific. They’re not all that different to one another at the end of the day, and to a new user potentially paralyzed by choice this site doesn’t really help either.

Sometimes it’s much easier to say “here’s 3 that offer the most stable new experience, try them out.” And afterwards if you get really tech savvy then go down the niche distro-hopping rabbit hole.

More distros is certainly a good thing, but most new linux users don’t even know what they’re looking for or would even get to the technical depth where the difference between any two distros would actually matter to their daily use. Even more so with the current migration of gamers onto Linux.

A little more nuanced than that, at the bottom of the article it says:

According to a 2014 Gigaom interview with Paul Kane, then chairman of the Internet Computer Bureau, the domain name registry is required to give some of its profits to the British government, for administration of the British Indian Ocean Territory.[23] After being questioned as a result of the interview, the British Government denied receiving any funds from the sale of .io domain names, and argued that consequently, the profits could not be shared with the Chagossians, the former inhabitants forcibly removed by the British government.[24] Kane, however, contradicted the government’s denial.[25][26]

I believe they’ve (Google) been somewhat successful in convincing carriers / 3rd party OS devs like Samsung to start implementing RCS in their own messaging apps. There’s even a 3rd party app on iOS that can use it now.

Check out the XDA Forums section for your carrier’s version of whatever model of phone you have. Not all carriers make it trivial (or even possible) to unlock the bootloader and flash custom recovery images, but if it’s possible then someone there has certainly done it.

RCS is our last hope…

No, in so far as its a valid community to link to considering this is beehaw (not federated with a few large instances) and it’s 100% relevant to the thread they posted it in.

I mean it’s quite literally not, but whether it’s tasteful to link to a different community is up to personal choice I guess.

Easily the surface-linux kernel project, that level of dedication is incredible and without I wouldn’t have my favorite laptop running linux right now.

And probably all of KDE’s various developers if possible, since I both love the actual desktop environment and all the various tools they provide (like Elisa, Kdenlive, and KDE Connect).

I would say, do a decently deep dive into your model’s section on the XDA forums. The people over there are the go to for rooting and custom recovery flashing.

The reason I think this is super important, is because the fact that you haven’t found a specific guide for the 3 Strix might possibly be that it just isn’t supported yet (or may not be possible to support). I used to have similar issues with certain carrier-specific models not actually supporting the steps needed to flash TWRP over adb or even unlock the bootloader period.
