  • Funnily enough, I’ve seen opinions that Windows has awful HDR handling and Plasma is much better, but I don’t have a proper HDR display to check. I’ve also had some success with VR, though I haven’t played much on Linux. That said, support from software for those things for Linux is still widely lacking, so it’s not much consolation.





  • their acceptable use policy straight up forbids viewing pornography or graphic violence

    That’s one thing I’m unsure about, because at the very top of the acceptable use policy it says that those points apply to Mozilla services - is Firefox a service, or does it only apply to online services that are built into Firefox?

    I still don’t like it if it’s overreaching, but I could understand if they don’t want, say, porn on some sharing features where they might be hosting something.



  • Archlinux is good if you accept that you’ll need to spend time to learn it, and that those moments might be frequent and unavoidable early on. Definitely wouldn’t recommend it to somebody who needs their computer to work, since a new user with no experience might find themselves breaking their boot images and spending hours trying to figure out how to fix their computer not booting.

    So yeah, I think that’s an important caveat: if you don’t know Linux already, and you can’t afford to spend time learning and fixing your system, don’t use Arch.
