I'm actually looking forward to trying the new @Raspberry_Pi desktop based on @debian Bookworm.

I've never run a desktop on my Pis, I run them all headless, but I'm curious what the performance is like now with Wayland and Pipewire (both things I run on my actual desktop/laptop).

I've got a Pi4 in an Argon One with m.2 SSD just waiting to try it.

First test will be 4K Netflix/Disney+ in @firefox thanks to that Widevine availability 👌

yeah me too, but until now the only way to get LXD on Debian was with snaps. Now its native!!

@TCB13 It was insanity that it was restricted to snaps in the first place.

Very happy about having native lxc/lxd back.

I followed the port of LXD for Debian and it wasn't a trivial job, (you know, Canonical and all) it almost didn't made it into Bookworm. LXC was previously available on the repositories but not LXD.
