I'm all in for performance improvements, hope to see this reach Proton ASAP

Stick with Fedora, but give a shot to the Atomic variants (Silverblue, Kinoite, etc.) You can always switch DEs back and forth with one command. Even if you don't stay with Fedora, it will help a lot for you to find the desktop environment that fits your workflow best (although I do recommend sticking with Fedora)

I don't hate them, but this hits hard. They are THE most influential distro for people outside of the community. They have by far the biggest user base and community, but instead of using this to collaborate with other distributions and specially with the freedesktop folks for the improvement of the commons, they have this culture of downstream work that rarely get the effort needed to be upstreamed. It's usually "it's good enough for us, so that's where we'll leave it", and they end up with these weird solutions that only they use.

Favoring modern design on the icons is good. It doesn't state that it has to be flat, it just says that it should at least follow some modern design guidelines so that the app doesn't send the impression of being an older, unmaintained thing.

If I find an app in Flathub that has an icon that looks like it was made 20 years ago I'm shocked when it ends up using modern frameworks. I think Inkscape and GIMP are the only examples that comes to mind.

The whole point of that is make it clear that the dark mode of the app isn't its default state. It doesn't say "dark theme bad", it clearly says just that the screenshots shouldn't only be in dark mode.

quite rare L brodie take there

I know, I'm on the Flatpak side, just appreciate the intention behind snaps (although I quite frankly hate the execution).

This is more than enough of an answer for the people that went "wHy BoThEr?" when this project started.

All of this great work, all of it upstreamed and a big part of it will (hopefully) influence even x86_64 machines if distros, communities and companies start supporting them. speakersafetyd sounds like a godsend for all laptop speakers, the pipewire energy-efficiency work sounds lovely for all laptops, specially more recent Intel ones, with P and E cores.

that's great, but is it forklift certified?

Seriously, I'm impressed on just how much influence Linux has in India, not only as an OS, but as a community. I'm in charge of some of the Fedora social media accounts and it really impressed me at first how India is consistently one the top 3 countries our followers are from in all of them.

They really are, but still leagues behind the features (and online learning material) compared to Resolve. I love both of them, but still, when I need to get to work with video, I still prefer to deal with Resolve's limitations than to deal with Kdenlive or Shotcut.
