Europe breaks their own procurement laws to choose Windows, because they are idiots.
Just switched to Fedora Kinoite and I’m loving the immutability of the OS. Oh bad update? lol rollback and golden. Can’t do that shit with each bloatware force push from MS
I mean, good thing, too. They just broke the lock screen this week. That was an annoying half an hour of troubleshooting to do in the middle of a work day.
Pros and cons in each, I suppose.
They just broke
Who did? I didn’t quite follow.
A KDE update broke its lock screen. Locking the computer would bring up a message reading “The lock screen is broken and doesn’t work anymore, to unlock the computer, hit Ctrl+Alt+F1, login and enter this command.”
Yeah, I don’t know who made the offending changes. I don’t think it’s fixed yet, I’m using a workaround at the moment.
It was a ufortunate situation as it coincided with Fedora infra move which lead to delays all around. Anyhoo, the new version, with fix for broken lockscreen on Plasma is available with qt6-qtwayland-6.9.1-3

Thanks for the analysis!
Nice to see the word unprecedented before some good news!

I’m guessing that isn’t the only reason.
