I was recommended this https://flathub.org/apps/io.github.vikdevelop.SaveDesktop Seems very user friendly and can do everything except for installing software.

Yeah, that sucks. I would still want it if I were to use Fedora, as an option.

I checked and Fedora dropped support for the snap plugin. https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/enable-snap-in-gnome-software/76134

These are also the only packages related to gnome-software:

From what I remember, their gnome-software already has flatpak support. So all that will be missing is the GUI snap support. Could’ve been worse.

I added sudo apt install gnome-software-plugin-snap gnome-software-plugin-flatpak gnome-software Looks like Fedora does not have gnome-software-plugin-snap or gnome-software-plugin-flatpak in its repos.

I don’t wish to learn Nix. I’m perfectly fine with Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora. When a new version comes out, all I have to do is change the versions of the extensions according to the new Gnome version.

Nope, I don’t touch the snap-store on Ubuntus (to be fair I don’t install any snap plugins for gnome software center on Debian/Fedora either). As for flatpak, it’s installed via apt from the regular repos. I didn’t even know there was an up to date PPA.

I know about this but that’s meant for 18.04 and earlier.

Edit: these are good suggestions tho. Something to work on to improve it even more.

inb4 snap bad, they are bash scripts. Anyone can delete any command they don’t like.

That’s what I used to think as well actually. I opened it, saw the airplane control center, and closed it. But then I volunteered for editing a photo for my school, and I had to learn how to effectively create borders around the text, as I would have to makes a lot of changes to them. So I searched and came across this video. And then I understood that GIMP is actually a really powerful tool, you just have to learn how the developers intended you to work with it. Admittedly, having to use the drop shadow feature for text borders is pretty retarded, but it lets you fine tune the how the end result will look.

GIMP or Krita might not be up to the standard as Affinity and Photoshop are, but at least while perfecting my skills in GIMP, I don’t have to worry about having to find a different software because a random company purchases it.

I appreciate your concern, though I’ve picked up vaping because of my anxiety… Now that I think about it, in the long run it could make it worse.

I know that it would be more logical to pay for a session with a therapist instead of wasting money on vapes, but every time I think about it, I come to the conclusion that I don’t want help. But that’s my problem, not this community’s. Wouldn’t want to turn a meme’s comment section into a depressing place.

Agreed. Don’t vape or smoke unless you fully acknowledge the possible side effects.

Don’t forget that this abomination was made by a paid team of programmers.

The joke here is very much just that. Immutable = not changing, therefore any update violates the idea of immutable distros.
