Pretty sure Waydroid uses the x86 image of LineageOS, cus last time I used it (like a year or more ago) I had to get x86 version of APKs I wanted to install.

TL;DR I am a nerd.

If I had to guess, they probably don’t use the APIs, inside using scrapping of some sort.
I moved an older relative to Mint and I regret it. Weird lagging and display server crashes sometimes, probably because of X11. Plus it’s release cycle is very slow, so old packages. Ubuntu is far from my favorite distro, but at least it uses a DE with first class Wayland support.
Here are my recommendations from last time I saw this question asked: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/comment/17912220
Maybe a setup FIDO2 LUKS unlocking, but that requires a security key: https://www.privacyguides.org/en/security-keys/
You could setup LUKS TPM unlocking.


I agree with PrivacyGuides on why to avoid Libre Kernels
https://www.privacyguides.org/en/os/linux-overview/#choosing-your-distribution
Linux-libre kernel and “Libre” distributions
We recommend against using the Linux-libre kernel, since it removes security mitigations and suppresses kernel warnings about vulnerable microcode.
AND
Proprietary Firmware (Microcode Updates)
Some Linux distributions (such as Linux-libre-based or DIY distros) don’t come with the proprietary microcode updates which patch critical security vulnerabilities. Some notable examples of these vulnerabilities include Spectre, Meltdown, SSB, Foreshadow, MDS, SWAPGS, and other hardware vulnerabilities.
We highly recommend that you install microcode updates, as they contain important security patches for the CPU which can not be fully mitigated in software alone. Fedora and openSUSE both apply microcode updates by default.


You can think yhat Wayland adoption was artificial, bit X.Org is unmaintained software and no developers are picking up reigns of X11. X is dead.


It is possible on both GNOME and KDE iirc. I never use that feature, but i am sure i saw it in the settings.


Because of the their choice to hold back package updates by a bit, it breaks AUR support. I have Aldo heard people talk about stability problems. The biggest reason IMHO to choose EndeavourOS (or even CachyOS) over Manjaro is that the former is much closer to base Arch Linux. Manjaro just has a bad reputation. When I used Manjaro like 6 years ago it was fine.
More streamlined installer, less/no command line in favor of GUI. Comes as an appimage but requires some packages to be installed on the host.


This list still recommends Bromite and Silence, which are both very dead. Bromite has been forked to Cromite.


I completed up to rule 13 but couldn’t do 14 because I couldn’t load the image of the country.
Here is my attempt, with the CAPTCHA at the end: Hqh$mayVVIIshellyPb🌖55-y5w28


I liked qdirstat


It requires rootful Docker, KVM, and AppImage (FUSE2). As long as those requirements are met, it should work. Should be as simple as using ujust or rpm-ostree to install the necessary packages.


Probably a good idea. I decided to learn Rust after using Python for a couple years. I took a semester of C++ but barely remember anything. Maybe I should write a project in C and rewrite later in Rust. I personally only learn when I get inspiration to make a program, which means I learn on the spot. I don’t think it is the best way to do things (if I knew the language better I may make better decisions), but it is the only way I can motivate myself to learn.


If all you need is a simple note taking app, I recommend Notesnook. It is free and open source and offers E2EE cloud syncing. That is what I used as a Google keep alternative. Silverbullet is good, but may be too feature-full for something as simple as a Keep replacement.
IIRC, it is a current limitation of rpm-ostree, which results in an ISO that is nearly double in size.
