Yes, but maybe debian enables it by default? You can check by running cat /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled

If the result is 0x0007, it means MGLRU is fully enabled.

You are supposed to use /var/home/user instead of /home/user in your paths, scripts, etc (or /var/$HOME). Im not certain on the why but iirc its because on immutable systems only /var is writable so anything writable has to be under it.

Id say just recommend Photon. It works well on both mobile and desktop. I love voyager but two very different uis is going to confuse new users.

Its about Malibal, an infamous linux/windows hardware company. The person in the video is a KDE dev (Niccolo).

Distros ship with icons and themes system wide because apps running as root only load icons/themes that are installed system wide (you can check this by running an app as sudo).

Yeah the docs are a bit misleading but they are mostly for complete linux newbies. Its basically saying that to scare away any newbies from relying on ntfs because ntfs on linux has quite a few issues (in general, not exclusive to Bazzite) and might break unexpectedly since it is reverse-engineered so it is not perfect.

Bazzite does support NTFS. I use Bazzite on one of my devices with ntfs partitions and I haven't had any problems so far. Unless you mean installing Bazzite on the ntfs partition which yeah I guess it doesn't but Im not sure if any other disro has support for it.

But fair enough, immutable distros have a read-only system so making certain changes might be difficult and the usual commands might not apply. They are not impossible though, just require different commands since you have to layer those changes on top of the system. I have been able to make pretty much any changes to my Bazzite system that I would do on an ordinary distro.

Bazzite also has a really nice community that will help you with any issues and you can also ask for help in Fedora Silverblue/Kionite communities since Bazzite is just an image of Fedora (Kionite).

Bazzite does support ntfs. I have ntfs partitions on my system and they work perfectly fine in Bazzite.

Woah that MR actually got merged damn. Couldn't believe it when I saw this, I thought the title was a clickbait or something until I checked and it was for real.

I thought Bezos was sold on space habitats (O'Neill Cylinders and the like). I remember he criticized Musk for his Mars ambitions.

Delta chat is based on top of email (i.e.SMTP, IMAP) so its like sending emails but in a chat format and encryption on top (and some more stuff).

Centralization is not a good thing IMO. Im glad Fedora is bothering to maintain their own repo no matter how useless we find it.
