“free” as in “available”

I use Fedora btw

You have two options to switch to systemd-boot on Fedora:

Use inst.sdboot as kernel parameter while installing Fedora, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/cleanup_systemd_install

Or use conversation scripts systemd-boot-conversion provided by Sebastiaan Franken

I used the script for two of my installations without any issues: systemd-boot-install-fedora-no-secureboot.sh

Btrfs and subvolumes are your friends. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/btrfs#Subvolumes

If we could fix the issue with non working Google Wallet/Google Pay, that would be great.

But it is also worrying that there there seems to be only Apple and Google Pay in Europe - no alternative solution for wireless paying.

Other than that, Lineage OS on my 9T feels great. Battery life got almost doubled and it feels great to use a device with all current security patched installed. Next step would be to use a completely degoogled version with only FOSS software installed - just for some app there are no real alternatives available: Banking app, Fitness watch app, Carsharing app etc

Also: what’s up with the fake browsers? How difficult us it to setup a local webserver, setup a hosts entry and use a real browser to open the webpage? Or open a static webpage via file:// protocol. I find it more effort to “program” a fake browser with complete interface…

The accusation by Bryan is out there, its detailed and looks profounded - there is no response from SUSE anywhere and this seems to follow the described pattern in the accusation of not talking about it. So as of now the public opinion is that the accusation was not withdrawn and is still standing. Not talking about it won’t make it go away for anyone.

Same here. I have not heard anything after the initial accusations. The company I am working for is using SLES as a main OS and is switching to another OS without any explanation. So I have no idea if the claims are true or the switch has anything to do with anything.

Ubuntu because of forced Snaps

SUSE because of Yast and the (german) company’s rumored? stance on antisemitism (google banned Jewish holidays)

Fedora for it’s update mechanism with the forced reboot

Arch as the necessary evil
