I currently use Fedora Kinoite and until Plasma 6 some major bugs will simply not be fixed. "Solved in Plasma 6" is a very common phrase now and that is okay.

But maybe once that is settled, I would like to have a system with tested packages, that doesnt always break and annoy me...

I love to see new features and especially KDE is simply best on modern Distros, currently. But with Nix and Flathub I think CentOS Stream should be a good mix?

I like the security settings it has, but I never used it. How good is EPEL, do external repos for things like Brave work? How old are packages, do you know when Plasma 6 will arrive there?

The "Places" bar is a great idea but currently useless, as it opens tabs and thus wastes double the space.

So I remove it through the GUI, but it seems with every update or even restart (??) it resets itself to visible again, which is a major annoyance.

I searched in the about:config and couldnt find the config? I would place it in my already existing hardened user.js

I consider this a meme, as it is graphically depicting emotions we all share.

When recommending people Linux Desktops for very low hardware in the past it was always stuff luke Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Puppylinux (and way more I know) etc.

Today we should not recommend X.org anymore, and Wayland is also said to be faster.

I have good experiences with KDE, but its not trimmed down in any way.

I was thinking about something like the Raspberry Pi Desktop? They use a set of regular Wayland utilities and the Desktop is probably very reliable and resource efficient.

This would be a great new ublue spin, for low resources. If their license allows it, it should be rebranded and changed to be more standard.

Do you know anything else? And no, no window managers please, had a really buggy experience on Fedora Sway.

I tried the Flatpak development release of GIMP 3 and there are already big problems with UI consistency.

For example the forced theming makes it unusable on KDE, this issue describes the too big UI very well and in general it seems like it doesnt make sense to have these huge UI elements on a compact App like GIMP.

Meanwhile apps like Inkscape are on GTK4 afaik, and GTK stands for GIMP ToolKit (or GNU ToolKit?). So its kinda ironic they are upgrading to GTK3 just now.

It seems they are also just doing some cleanup in the code, so I wonder how big the step to GTK4 would be?

And it problems like too large UI elements or theming problems could be fixed.

I am on Fedora with KDE (Kinoite) and use virt-manager.

I like to test a lot of stuff, but the VMs are not big. As they are dynamically allocated, I create them with 50GB or something.

But it seems that virt-manager and also KDE Dolphin see these qcow2 images as being full size, so I currently have only 20GB of "space left".

Do you know anything about this?

I think for any Linux Distro or OEM to preinstall Brave, it needs to become more modular.

Is there a way to preset some specific settings like homepage, search Engine, some privacy settings etc

I think Brave is pretty solid, but also really bloated out of the box.

I am using the RPM on Fedora.

Solutions found

• ~/.config/brave-flags.conf (derived from ~/.config/chromium-flags.conf) should work as a user.js
• /etc/brave/policies/managed/ (derived from /etc/chromium/policies/managed/) should allow to place policies which cant be overwritten by non-wheel users.

These are the solutions!
