Check out this section. You can enable the fonts you want to have bitmap enabled

https://www.alpinelinux.org/about/ Check out Alpine. Might just be enough for what you want

Could have been disabled by the vendor. My partner has an Acer with the same issue.

I agree.
If you’re going with USB maybe check this list (it’s from 2021, which should serve very well) https://www.fosslinux.com/46681/linux-compatible-wireless-network-adapters.htm

I agree. I think OP should try another shell first. That will impulse the use of the terminal. I’m using alacritty because it stuck and the updates are minuscule, but I’ve recently moved to fish and have it on desktop and server.

Maybe this might be something to consider

Yeah, pretty sure snaps is only on Ubuntu but I think they can be enabled on discovery as well.

Basically you need to mount the drivers, try this - https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=255060 Unlike Linux, Windows typically automounts every drive on the system with letters assigned to each drive by order of initialization, except for C where the windows installation resides.

Fedora KDE would be my suggestion

Have you tried enabling the FtInTitle Plugin? https://beets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/plugins/ftintitle.html

I think you’re referring to the “file picker” window. i think qBittorrent is using Dolphin as the file picker and as everyone else commented already you can get the same behavior if you use the “Details” view. Go the settings on Dolphin and tick the Expandable option

Alternatively, you can add the Folder panel (F7) and have the same functionality while having a “Compact” or “Icons” for the files

It seems that there are unofficial ports. OP could test it out before.

I think for OP it would be better off with a Framework laptop. It makes more sense in the long run.
Linux on ARM is great for SBC servers but not so good on the graphics stack. As @[email protected] pointed out Snapdragon SOCs are still lackluster. I’m sure Framework will have ARM in their lineup in the future (there’s already a RISC-V mainboard) while support for these CPUs keep improving.
On the other hand, i recently bought a 6 years old lenovo, installed Fedora KDE and it all just works, more importantly for me power management is no longer an issue. It will never be on the level of the newest Apple silicon though.

My first was Ubuntu in the early 2000s, I think CDs were being distributed by the IT department in one of the faculties, then SUSE but Linux didn’t stick with me at the time. In 2018 I installed Manjaro which helped me make the switch to arch. I’ve also got Debian on a server and fedora on a laptop

Yes. I don’t fear updates anymore but then i install everything, AUR, flapjacks, several DE’s and break the system. I’ve come to realize that I like tinkering since DOS, I’ve accepted it and I shall be installing arch again this weekend

This actually looks cool with several robots being supported

I just installed tailscape and it works for my needs. Will read up on your docs. Thx

Bazzite comes packaged with the essentials so that anyone can use it without using terminal. Flatpak is enabled by default and this is the best approach. You can check it out below.
https://docs.bazzite.gg/Installing_and_Managing_Software/
If you’re not comfortable yet using any other terminal package manager other than apt, you can still use bazzite and learn with time. You can install most apps through Discover (KDE) or Gnome software

I think you nailed the first paragraph.
My comment is just to remind that OP is already running an immutable distro on the Steam deck. Valve OS is an arch based immutable distro.
Bazzite was assembled, by some very cool people, to bring the same features of the Steam deck using the already tested atomic editions of fedora to a multitude of “PCs”. Saves time on managing the “Linux” system and focuses on the gaming features, apps and drivers.

I’ve been following her for the past year, it’s a pity she doesn’t have a one time contribution scheme set up. I also can’t support everyone but judging from the donations on KDE people do tend to give small amounts and it really helps. Gonna try to contact her and see if she can accept something like that
