Do you only use floating windows on hyprland? I like floating windows more than tiling, so would like to know how you did it.

You can get more updated packages by running debian testing, which is quite stable. Debian also is more stable. Security patches are still brought to the main release, making it secure. The stability comes from the lack of a lot of new updates which come with a lot of new bugs.

I mostly want some sort of graphical way, I'm often moving a bunch of loose files and seeing them is a lot easier for me when transferring

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

I'm using debian, so sftp would be an option, do you use a graphical client?

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

how would you do that with a large media library?

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

sorry, should've clarified: secure copy, it's an ssh kind of way of copying files to a server

I mostly want to upload to a media server from my desktop, as that is where I download and manage the files before they go on the server

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

I'm not losing them, I have a lot of single files. For example during a Minecraft update, I have to move ~20 jar files and other things to the server. I also try to make frequent backups and I upload new movies somewhat frequently to my jellyfin server, so I want to have an easy way to transfer files.

will do, thanks a lot

Do you automate your backups in some way? And can you also use samba remotely

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

sounds like a good option, will definitely try this out

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

I'm considering this, as I can see by your example, you can add a domain name to the server. How would you go over doing this?

I'm now considering syncing my minecraft world with syncthing, I already use it for some things but don't know why I didn't think of doing that.

On the other hand, if I have a 100+ gb media library, it seems kinda over the top to also have it fully copied on my local machine. Do you do this?

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

I will take a look, thank you very much!

pterodactyl looks really neat, will definitely look into that. I have a manual system for my media library, so I want to add the directories with artwork and movies manually to the directory which jellyfin reads.

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

I'll also take a look at this

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

so you basically have a copy of your media library on a local machine?

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

sounds good, do you have any docs on how to do that?

legoraft OP ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

Great! Thanks a lot, this will help

dnf and apt are both package managers, they function a bit different. The ppa is a personal repository set up for apt, so it qon't work in combination with dnf. You could try and set up quickgui through the build instructions with the tarball on their github page, but as far as I can read right now quickemu does work on fedora through dnf

Googled around a bit, seems like this is the official guide

Spotify is a good example of this imo, I can listen everything, so it's not necessary to pirate music. I do have some issues, but never had the problem of not being able to listen what I want

legoraft ,
@legoraft@reddthat.com avatar

I would think so, in the example videos there are players called “sh”, which isn’t possible with microsofts account names.

afaik, doas is a bit more minimal than sudo, so less bloatware. Sudo has a lot of CVE’s every year and because doas is way smaller, it has a lot less security issues.

I have an Asus vivobook flip, which also has a touchscreen. I daily drive pop OS, which works great with my touchscreen, altough the mouse sometimes dissapears and you need to drag it to the top bar to make it reappear. Screen rotation also works quite good by the way.

Why should I primary Linux for Home Desktop and which one do you recommend?

I’ve always used Windows and am super comfortable with it. I have set up a dual boot with fedora but don’t use it because I have never identified a need to use it. I see a lot of windows hate, so what does Linux have that I need? What can motivate me to migrate? What is a good Linux to have for a desktop + steam?

If you don’t feel the need, don’t do it. But linux can give you extra privacy, customizability or a way to tinker with everything on your system. Distros like fedora, linux mint and pop os are great distros to start if you feel the urge some day.
