Switched from the kde test repo over to baseline Tumbleweed today. It was actually smoother than I'd expected

That won't stop anyone from willfully ignoring it

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day

USA: 128% UK: 105% China: 210%

What's interesting to me is that it seems China had a lot more responses with 2 or 3 answers, where UK, in particular had almost no duplicate responses.

Still on flathub

Uninstall and reinstall the game between users...

More seriously, I think bazzite is keeping a traditional login screen instead of using the steam one, so you could have actual segregated user accounts

I've been running kinoite on my laptop for a short while now, and I wanted to address a few miscellaneous things.

First: I recommend trying the out of the box experience for a while before going far customizing it. For example, someone mentioned your filesystem layout with subvolumes: that's the default in kinoite: home, var, and root are in subvolumes.

Second: Wayland either is or is about to be the default in fedora (I'm running the beta for the next version, and it's Wayland by default). Try it and see if you have issues before trying to switch to x11.

Flatpak is your first stop for installing software on kinoite, but the fedora repo that's configured by default is missing a lot. If shows software available that you don't see in discover/flatpak, you need to add the flathub repo, which is easy to do, but not obvious (to me) that it wasn't the default.

Finally, Nvidia experience might not be good ootb. You might need to take extra steps to get the proprietary Nvidia driver.

Good luck with your endeavor!

Edit: Firefox

I don't understand why the default install of Firefox isn't the flatpak version. Switch to the flatpak version and you won't have to worry about codecs.

Lol, I just noticed that this thread is 3 weeks old... How is your setup working out?

Man, calling it discourse seems incredibly generous

sudo chown <user> -R /path

sudo chgrp <group> -R /path

I'm running kde6 on fedora rawhide kinoite, it's pretty stable.

Minor point of clarification though, kinoite isn't immutable ootb, it's atomic (which is to say it either fully updates or doesn't. Immutable is an experimental setting you can enable though)

You're using flatpak, right? Flatpak uses "portals" to provide access to other parts of your system. When you open files in flatpak apps, you'll see this folder used for those.

These shouldn't actually take up any meaningful space, and I wouldn't delete anything unless you're experiencing an issue.

I would take that one step further and recommend an atomic release: like fedora silverblue or kinoite for someone new to Linux. The read only base filesystem makes the risk of breaking things basically zero.

It does make some tutorials invalid though, which can be a source of frustration.
