What is your setup?

From my experience default KDE is more windows-like so it can help with transition for Windows users

Glad to hear it was just a wine bug. It came right as I installed a new GPU and I got worried

Nvidia has been kind of a mess for me on Wayland, especially the lastest 545 drivers. I just switched to AMD and literally all my issues disappeared, including one I thought was a KDE plasma bug

Something tells me the potential reception of the magypsies is a factor. Now is a time of both great love and hate for things related to challenging binary gender

Notably missing from the comparison list is any mention of video or screen sharing, or anything to do specifically with games. These are Discord's unique strengths at the moment and they have been for a long time. With that in mind, Matrix is a "good alternative" to Discord in the sense that most other desktop VoIP or chat apps are since Discord users aren't using it for the privacy and openness aspects and want the Discord specific features and ease of use.

Don't get me wrong, I wish I could fully replace Discord with the Matrix instance I currently self-host, but there are things Discord just does better than every other app including having a bunch of features that range from meh to pretty good all in one package.

The fan translation was fantastic, but I do wonder what official localization would look like.

Wouldn't it be weird to include multiple takes when totalling number of lines? Like, it's understood that only one take of any particular line would ever be included in the final product. I'm not sure that's what happened here

If you want to use Radarr or Sonarr you better be ok with TVDB metadata because that's all they support and will likely ever support based on the discussions I've seen over the past few years.

Another vote for Arch. Manual Arch install was an interesting, and positive, experience. I did it multiple times so I could better understand what was actually being done. It helped me understand the boot and EFI partitions because I wanted to dual boot Windows.

For Arch itself, I've had a way snappier experience with pacman than apt and the AUR is a really convenient resource. So many packages there that you would otherwise have to build from source.

Bleeding edge packages can cause problems, but there are ways to recover. downgrade from the AUR makes downgrading packages really easy. The latest Nvidia drivers caused a bunch of problems with games for me on Wayland so I downgraded them and the Linux kernel and added them to pacman's package ignore list.

Denying references to other places that directly compete with you seems pretty reasonable to me. You don't see toaster boxes at Walmart saying it's also available at Target or whatever
