Yeah Debian and new don’t usually go hand in hand unless you use one of those distros designed around Debian Sid.
If it’s stability I suppose Fedora doesn’t usually get much complaints in that dept. and they have much newer repos

mine is a pi 4 but basically the same, just shoved inside a box for protection
I’ve taken to calling it LiGMA/GIMP myself.
Fascinating stuff. I’m glad we’re entering this new era of Linux application compatibility! And all through the honorable work of developers who are doing stuff just for the fun of it.
Disregarding the parent comment, but hosting a soft fork is easy enough but it’ll quickly become a spaghetti mess of local patches that conflict with upstream changes. It’s not like there’s an argument for preserving access to Russia either since the nature of the kernel being hosted across torrent trackers makes it impossible to deny Linux to any one country.
It seems like the better solution (imo) is to work on a different kernel receptive of these maintainers, so that the companies employing them can still have a kernel that is developed for their use-cases whilst supporting projects that don’t so openly collaborate with hostile states.
All of those freedoms were directly impacted bozo.
And as for “Linus didn’t do it”, not only did they choose to comply with an order that directly violated the GPL, but in doing so he then followed up by gloating about Russian maintainers who have worked diligently on the kernel for years for the betterment of open software AND Linus’ paycheck.
Calling your former volunteer contributors bots and state assets because of their home country is just straight up racist, especially when the only evidence of state-sponsored tampering in the Kernel has come from American institutions (that we even know of).
Even this top level comment is so blatantly misunderstanding the concept of open source software that no one will bother engaging with it properly.
Probably better for BRICS countries to consider contributing to something different.
Realistically there’s no feasible way for the US to block access to use the kernel, and even a soft fork of it will be laughably easy for glowies to exploit. There are a bunch of promising kernels that could be well suited for China and Russia’s push towards RISC and ARM independence, whereas in Linux they’d be tasked with maintaining drivers and other systems that are a massive security vulnerability if you don’t have total control over them.
I’d honestly even consider it a good idea for Russia to get the FSF to fight this considering it’s a blatant violation of the GPL. Even if the president can just say whatever they like, at least you can make it embarrassing and expensive for the chauvinists gloating at the labour they exploited for years.
I don’t think speed is an issue. They’re larger but all software loads dependencies from disk, flatpaks just have them bundled into a different location.
Snap did have some loading time issues but in terms of performance, I don’t think there was much measurable difference.
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/linux-fellow-bans-university-contributing-kernel Or just suggest they back door the kernel to an American university
yup. these so called “open” projects are being kneecapped in the name of American empire and Linus is celebrating it.
it isn’t like Americans would do that, right?
he’s just an American nationalist at heart. his dad was a member of the Russian communist party and his biography seemed to make clear that rebelled from that.
socially he’s not terrible but when the war drums come beating he’s stepping in line for the stars and stripes
Linus is an absolute cunt for not only following this gleefully but then attributing pushback to “russian trolls” and “state propaganda” fuck you man.
These people weren’t the MIT pricks who inserted vulnerabilities into the kernel, they were contributors who did hard work and helped advance FREE software. Linus is now turning his back on the GPL and manning it clear that Linux can be controlled by the US state on a whim.
I like the approach here, but the requirements are a little vague and prone to bikeshedding. Stuff like “could this be used by multiple clients” might mean a protocol is held in limbo whilst it’s given extra scope for example.
It’ll need some strong moderation which might rub people the wrong way, but if this keeps Wayland’s cutting edge moving whilst the official solutions are found, I’m all for it.
Keep stroking your ego. There’s a special place in hell for people who think I’d give a shit how uncivil I look when pointing out their genocidal rhetoric is psychopathic.
I’d rather be a whiny child with a conscience than a stuck up brat supporting blood for the sake of empire.
And yet you. take. the. word. of. a. country. systematically. raping. civilians.
Don’t pretend you’re interested in the truth. You’re interested in seeing more dead, raped, and starving kids to fulfill you racial prejudices. Go fuck yourself.
