Voyager here. Thunder is my second, but there is a bug that the previews are not loading right. Voyager fells like a better experience right now.

I was using it has my main Lemmy client, but no big deal. Fortunately there’s a lot of clients to choose from.

Just to add that it was the worst performer because the tester made some mistake when doing said markdown test. When he corrected the test it was nowhere near the worst, but it was already to late.

Some people (tester included) tried to reason with the dev, but to no avail. I think he was scared because he was using his real name in github, and didn’t want to have bad code in his résumé or something like that.

IMHO, the dev overreacted. But it’s his project so it’s is decision.

Some people forked the project before it went down, so maybe we can see a comeback in the future.

Indeed I’m, try it in a VM in whatever system he wants.

openSUSE tumbleweed normal installation image doesn’t have a live system to try. Although there is a live image to try it in a VM, but you can’t use it to install. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Better to try it in a VM before having the work to install it on bare metal.

Try openSUSE tumbleweed in a VM if plasma is your thing. IMHO is one of the best plasma implementations I’ve tried.

I’ve been using it for a year now, does everything I need. No problems whatsoever in gaming.

The only thing I had to do, was enable a extra repo in YAST for installing the codecs to be able to play movies and such.

One word of advice to OP: don’t wait till you can’t use Windows anymore. Start by dual booting and getting a hang of Linux, but with windows at the ready for any tasks you cannot yet do/feel comfortable doing on Linux. As you get a better hold of Linux, you should naturally begin to use Windows less.

Good advice here OP.

I’m using a rpi4 model B 4GB.

Works pretty well for my needs. At least until now I don’t feel like it’s underpowered.

It plays 4K video from my main PC with no problems or stuttering. But I mainly use it for 1080p.

I had xbmc like a decade ago, before I gave up on the aye matey lifestyle

Same thing here.

I was just assuming it was some other hardware solution

Yeah I though so. LibreELEC is a Linux distro with just enough OS to run kodi.

I’m using pi+libreelec+kodi.

Why kodi over plex? No special reasons, kodi does everything I need and with the addons support it gives me a lot of options(torrents+streaming).

Have been using kodi since it was called xbmc in the OG xbox modding scene. Never used Plex, so I just went with what I knew.

I did the same thing but went with LibreELEC+Kodi. And it even works with the TV remote.

No answer yet. I have never filled a bug to suse, so I don’t know if I’m missing something.

This is the link to the bug, if anyone wants to add anything.

Yes, it happens when the screen tries to go to sleep or when you use the keyboard shortcut to turn it off.

If it happens in X11 just disabled KScreen 2 in Background Services.

I’ve filled a bug at suse. Let’s see what they say.

Not yet. But thats a good tip. Thanks

Did that now. Does not make any difference.

It should be possible once valve releases an ISO for it. But has we all know, valve seems to have a problem releasing anything with a 3 in the name…
