This is overly complicated. Just install Java then run
flatpak --user override --env="FLATPAK_ENABLE_SDK_EXT=openjdk" com.vscodium.codium
Note this works for all other SDKs too. It works especially well for programming languages like Rust that have their own package manager.
Doesn't work so well for languages like C/C++ where you use your distro package manager to install dependencies. In those cases it's easier to install VSCodium inside a container where you do have access to a distro package manager.
The kernel is a snap in Ubuntu Core, but you still need to reboot. I don’t think there’s a nice way to work around that.
Unofficial Discord server where some Mojang developers and modders are discussing the rendering overhaul that Minecraft java edition is going through
Once this is complete, we’ll implement a modern rendering pipeline that will give us a strong foundation to build upon, making visual changes and performance improvements easier in the future – for us, and modders too!. After that, we will be able to start adding the visual features. We really want to take this time to build this properly for Java Edition and build it in a way that allows us to continue to add complex enhancements such as Vibrant Visuals to Java in the future.
Our goal is to bring Vibrant Visuals to all Java Edition players, across all supported devices – and we know that is going to be a challenge. We are working on a viable solution that works across the Java platforms: Windows, Mac, Linux and are committed to continuing to support these platforms.
I wonder how they’ll implement this modern rendering pipeline. Are they going to move away from OpenGL? That would be kinda big news. Would that mean Vulkan on Windows and Linux and Metal on macOS? Or would Microsoft insist on DirectX for Windows? I hope Linux won’t be left out, implementing 3 different graphics APIs would be a lot.
Adding non-Steam games has never worked well for me.
Another issue is that there is a database of tweaks Proton uses to make games work better, but I don’t think it uses it for non-Steam games.
Heroic with umu do use these tweaks.
The fediverse is not private. It’s open, that’s the point of it. There’s very few protections on your data. By necessity, your data will flow through hundreds of third party servers who can do whatever they want with it.
The benefit of the Fediverse is that it’s decentralized and that helps users avoid the BS that Twitter went through.
No Hidden Software, No Surprises | Inspecting root to see what package installed which files and files that are not part of a package
They didn’t leave the Fediverse because of that. They got the same reaction on Reddit and Bluesky, but are still on those platforms.

While Librewolf does have its advantages, I find it hard to recommend over regular Firefox, at least for most people. Librewolf disables some features like WebGL due to security and privacy concerns.
Looks like it. openSUSE also uses a fair few AI images.
Fedora IoT is similar to CoreOS, that seems primarily aimed towards Pis.
I haven't watched the video yet, but keep in mind "resource usage" being lower isn't always better.
For example, Plasma had an issue for some people where animations would not happen, freeze the system momentarily, and stutter. The reason why turned out that these people were using slow drives. Plasma was trying to load the bytecode for the QML animations from disk, but the IO operation took too long so the animation suffered. Had this bytecode been stored in memory, the performance would have been better.
But I also don't want to discount the fact that some (perhaps most) of the time, high resource usage is a bad thing caused by poor programming and using technologies that are heavier, like Electron. Whether those tradeoffs are worth it are another matter.
I wish more developers actually used their software low-end devices to find performance issues. I recently got an Intel N100 and it's actually been a decent experience on Linux, though Gnome shell's animations are a bit stuttery even on Gnome 48. Haven't tested any other desktop though.
Is media.ffmpeg.enabled set to true in about:config?
It’s also true that graphics performance of Firefox is just not as good as Chromium, even with hardware acceleration.
What’s your distro?
How is Firefox installed? Distro package or flatpak?
It’s not making it worse. They like anime, so they have an anime girl as the mascot; a very tame one too.
But some people freak out about it.
If you use Anubis for free, he asks that you keep the girl on for marketing purposes.
If you pay / support the project, you can remove it.
Honestly, it’s a good way to encourage people to pay up because some people absolutely hate it.
I was wondering about that too. At first I assumed they were only allocated a few of the cores for their testing, but a typo seems more likely.
It’s actually pretty nice in some situations.
One thing that bites me about Loupe / Image Viewer is that it always goes through images in alphabetical order, despite the sort option you have set in nautilus.
Sushi does go through items using the same sort option set in nautilus.
Though it can be finicky with videos, so I don’t use it for that.
Good thing I use the Flatpak version of Sushi, I’ll just remove the network permission.
On some systems neofetch would actually run quite slow. Even on my fast system it would occasionally take a second because it hung on one step.
