Not to derail this thread, but is there any way of seeing whether I'm actually on the waitlist? I remember signing up late last year, but there was never any confirmation and I never got the survey which I've heard people talking about. I'm super interested to try out Bluesky, but haven't been able to find anyone with an invite.

Did you sign an invite code using the key in their bio? That's so neat! I'm not sure if you have more, but I'm also on the waitlist ([email protected]) and would love to check it out.

Where are my Virtue's Last Reward fans at?

I honestly think this is malicious on Microsoft's part. Ignoring the fact that this is being portrayed as a Linux flaw when it's really a flaw in a project called networkd-dispatcher, the original article seems to suggest that this project is part of systemd-networkd, when it's really just a third party project with no relation. I'm clearly not the only one who thought this, as most commenters seem to have come to the conclusion that this is a systemd project. It's not even packaged by that many distros (just Debian and derivatives) [1]. The developer even said that no one contacted them [2]. This on top of having typical "exploit marketing" (like a catchy name, a big ASCII art banner, and a long blog post with graphics) really can't lead me to a charitable conclusion.

In practice, the deduplication is pretty good. I have 78 Flatpaks installed (apps and runtimes), and here's my dedup stats (calculated from https://gist.github.com/powpingdone/001a46aa7db190b9c935f71c...):
===========================================
no dedupe: 16.0 GB (17228518418 B)
dedupe: 11.7 GB (12594871766 B)
singlelet: 8.1 GB (8677649129 B)
orphan: 1.8 GB (1889889290 B)
===========================================
deduplicated size ratio: 73.10
singlelet space usage: 68.90
singlelet file ratio: 63.56

But libadwaita hasn't taken away the ability to try? You can still load custom themes through GTK_THEME and specific CSS through ~/.config/gtk-4.0/gtk.css.

We should pronounce it `yif` just to be different.

It's not really that bad. You are told the permissions requested by an app on installation:
$ flatpak install flathub com.microsoft.Teams
com.microsoft.Teams permissions:
ipc network pcsc pulseaudio x11 devices file access [1] dbus access [2] tags [3]
[1] xdg-download
[2] org.freedesktop.Notifications, org.freedesktop.secrets, org.gnome.SessionManager, org.kde.StatusNotifierWatcher
[3] proprietary
ID Branch Op Remote Download
1. com.microsoft.Teams stable i flathub < 86.0 MB
Proceed with these changes to the system installation? [Y/n]:
$ flatpak info --show-permissions com.discordapp.Discord
[Context]
shared=network;ipc;
sockets=x11;pulseaudio;
devices=all;
filesystems=xdg-download;xdg-pictures:ro;xdg-videos:ro;home;

And on GNOME 40 I can search mouse, and go directly to gnome-control-center with a nice slider for mouse speed. It also even lets me swap the primary mouse button to the left or right button.

They're already doing it with WSL specific features such as the DirectX driver.

Valve didn't have to include a KDE desktop on the Steam Deck, but they still did, so it sure seems like they wanted it it.

This isn't a problem on Fedora Workstation. .flatpak, .flatpak-ref, .flatpak-repo, and .rpm files can all be opened directly and installed in GNOME Software. And if an app isn't showing up, then the dev either isn't shipping a .desktop file or isn't installing it correctly.
