This #poll about #ThinkPad is running for 4 days left with 70 people already participating (and is still counting).

Do you have a ThinkPad? I'd love you to share your experience here.

Once again, mine is T430 and it works perfectly with #Kubuntu.

🥥 You've piqued my curiosity, Sonny.
Will these #Privacy benefits being built into #Ubuntu carry over into #Kubuntu? Or, as in my case, #KDEsktop overlaid on Ubuntu? 🥥

Tengo un problemilla con #OBS desde que lo actualice. Me pongo a hacer un #directo con mi juego habitual (#warthunder), y es como si OBS secuestrara el #driver de #sonido.

I switch from #Fedora with #GNOME to #Kubuntu today...

I'll try for a little and see if i like it

#foss people out there, what #linux distro do you use and why? Please note, this is not a distro bashing conversation. Rather, it's curiosity about other opinions and learning.

I've used #ubuntu #kubuntu or #kdeneon as daily driver for the past 14 years. Whilst I like neon, it doesn't play very nicely with Nvidia. Yes, I'm fully aware you can get it to work, but it's a pain in the ass and regularly breaks shortly after getting things somewhat working. At least that's my experience.

About ten years ago, I had a brief flirtation with #opensuse and the relationship ended badly. I still have a little trauma from that. I'm pretty sure it was all my fault, but never could figure out what I did wrong.

I've been very unimpressed with the direction that Canonical is taking and wanted to try something new. I tried an Arch based distro last autumn and really found the community too caustic to new people joining. Not to mention, I saw a lot fascist views inserted into comments and replies to other users. That was dropped quickly.

After New Year's, I decided to get crazy and installed #fedora. 😅 I know, I know, not really a big leap into the unknown, but I've never tried it before. I've been using it for almost 6 months now and it's ok. I don't like it and I don't dislike it. My biggest issue is that Xorg seems broken (and I cannot figure out why) and I can only use Wayland to login. Wayland is just not quite there for my workflow.

Oh, I should also mention. I'm one of those #kdeplasma nut cases.

@aks
I went through a couple of hoops to get flatpak set up on my #Kubuntu machine and #snap purged from it.

I also definetly prefer native packages but at least with flatpak you get to choose, snap _must_ go through Canonicals servers, something I really dislike.

Ubuntu 23.04 Flavors: What’s New?

Arriving alongside the Ubuntu 23.04 release are new versions of official community flavours. This time around there’s a newbie in the pack: Ubuntu Cinnamon, welcomed into the Ubuntu flavour family back in March after several years as an unofficial Ubuntu remix. In this post I share a concise overview of what new features and changes are present in the most popular Ubuntu flavours, along with downloads links so you can download them to test out yourself. Unless otherwise noted, all flavours inherit Ubuntu’s foundational packages, so you get the same Linux 6.2 kernel, updated graphics drivers, app updates, refreshed tooling, :sys_more_orange:

Kubuntu 23.04: Best New Features

I've been a #linux server administrator for almost 25 years, but I've never been able to use a desktop environment as my daily driver for work. Our company just does too much with Microsoft.

I've been playing with #kubuntu 22.04 LTS for a while now, and I have to say that I am more and more impressed.

I may have to accidentally bring my home laptop instead of work laptop to the office and #seewhathappens.

#ubuntu

Started up the #kubuntu testbed....
It was sitting there for 2 weeks just chillin. No idea what broke it but I continue to be great at randomly breaking #Linux builds.

I have zero interest in fixing an unresponsive grub issue, so I'm going to try #Batocera 36 this weekend. Time for some #retrogaming :ablobcatbongo:

@kubuntu

I dislike how unstable KDE has become. I can't go a week now without plasma not starting correctly and losing my panel settings. This is on multiple devices as well. :(

#kde #kubuntu

#Firefox #Snaps in #Ubuntu #kubuntu are fucking stuopid.

Why is this my default browser (and oddly chromIOM is not) and I have to deal with this not in my regular repos?

These containers are crap.

Please stop.

I'm super too lazy to compile it myself.

Good news for #Kubuntu users - you can now upgrade to @kde Plasma 5.27 https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2023/03/install-kde-plasma-5-27-on-kubuntu-22-10

How to Upgrade to KDE Plasma 5.27 on Kubuntu 22.10

Kubuntu 22.10 users can now upgrade to the latest KDE Plasma 5.27 release thanks to the ever-dependable Kubuntu backports PPA. As expected, Kubuntu developers put in the effort necessary to package the latest Plasma release for use atop Kubuntu 22.10. As the backports PPA is entirely opt-in (i.e. it’s not enabled by default) users must go out of their way to add it in order to receive the update. KDE Plasma 5.27 features a variety of cool things, the most notable being a(n incredibly cool) new window tiling experience, and major improvements to multi-monitor handling. There are also Flatpak setting :sys_more_orange:
