I've yet to find something open-source that scratches what MusicBee can do, and it's got major performance, usability and visual problems when running through WINE that have been reported.

It's why I keep a Windows VM around.

I have honestly been tempted to hop to Pop!_OS for their take on GNOME. The auto-tiling was really nice when I tested it in a virtual machine.

I am going to temper my expectations a bit, since the article is specifically singling out their clause on accessing additional games. But at the same time, I am huffing the hopium since Sony has upstreamed PlayStation controller drivers to the Linux kernel, so they might be receptive to supporting SteamVR, Steam Link or something equivalent, if possible. (No, before you ask, I'm not expecting Linux support on PSVR2.)

I've seen a lot of Debian mentions on the Linux communities here, lately. More than usual, lol. Maybe I should give it a good try with Flatpak to handle non-system packages.

Not often but I have a moment where I do. Last year I contributed a plugin for MusicBrainz Picard which allows you to submit your genre tags to MusicBrainz. I want to give it a proper good update in the future but I'm so focused on other things right now.

I feel like the people who got scared of Bluesky joining the AP fediverse don't even actually want a fediverse. They want a bog-standard, non-federating bulletin board instead.

From what I saw, fedi people were mostly freaking the fuck out while most of the Bluesky users were just making fun of the whole ordeal.

AFAIK, no bridges to Bluesky are actually active yet, and Bridgy Fed is considering ways of going opt-in.

GNOME should at least support colour schemes, in my opinion. If they don't want theming, they can at least do that. In any case, Gradience can help with getting a coherent colour scheme on non-GNOME/libadwaita environments, and if the user is just using Breeze, they already have a Breeze colour scheme available. It's available as a Flatpak.

Gentoo isn't so much painful but it takes a bloody long time. If anything, some of the packages are really painful. Qtwebengine is one such example.

Hmm... I'm gonna keep tabs on that one then. Good call.

Mainly GPU acceleration without passthrough from the last time I tested (Modern Windows is slow without it and passthrough might be an issue on immutable distros), but shared folders is something I use quite a bit on VMware. I remember trying virtiofs when I used passthrough, and it was suffering.
