I wonder what criteria they are using for distribution. Mine is set for the By September timeline so I’m happy with that. But from what I’ve seen of comments it doesn’t necessarily seem to be done in order of reservation necessarily.

    This is a great write up and analysis. It does make me wonder why there are big names associating themselves with this when it seems to really be a big mess under all the cool colors not to say anything of the garbage that comes out of the developer himself.

    But maybe it all speaks to a way to improve upon and move past Omarchy. There is clearly a group of people that want to use or at least try Arch and Linux in general, but don’t really know how. Providing a highly configured Arch setup, that looks cool, actually delivers on security, that is created by people that understand systems, that still allows for the freedom of choice that Linux provides, and that aren’t developed by a scumbag could be a big hit.

    I cannot understand why Nirav, the head of the company, would weigh in here instead of having the PR/Marketing team of or someone come up with an answer for this. Made it so much worse and I have such a bad feeling about them now.

    Maybe some Ben Franklin will help them “It takes many good deeds to build a reputation, and only one bad one to lose it.” “Never ruin an apology with an excuse.”

    Man fuck that. I dont expect a tech company to be great. But I have a 13” and was excited to see these keep getting better. But that response is just bullshit. There are legitimate business reasons aside from all of the many moral ones not to support bullshit reprehensible creators and by doing so publicly connect your company to them. If they can’t even see the dollar signs there… well… fuck em.

    Maybe I’ll start quoting the Hyprland fucks in the framework forums and see if that language flies or gets taken down.

  • Help with Activities (discuss.tchncs.de)
     

    Hi. I am relatively new to linux and even newer to KDE. I just discovered Activities and it seems like a tool that will be just about what I was looking for to keep school work separated from my regular tasks. I have two things that I would like to change but I don't know if it is possible. Maybe someone could help. I would appreciate it.

    The first thing is the panel / taskbar apps. If I change the order on one Activity it will move the app order on the other Activity. I looked in the settings for Icons-Only Task Manager but couldn't find anything that would help despite seeing some guides that said to do so.

    The second thing is the Activity Bar widget. Right now it shows my Activities as Everyday and School in text horizontally at the end of the panel. It would be great if it could be a vertical switcher or small icons or something. As it is it takes up a good amount of space on the panel. I attached an image.

    I am on Fedora 42 on a Framework 13" laptop.

    If there are ways to adjust the settings to do the things I am looking for I would love to learn.

    Thanks!
