Fedora is removing X11 support, at least for the GNOME version. I think that's what the OP was talking about.

Doesn't Fedora have like an Xfce spin or something else with X11?

Yea they have to ban the contributor who proposed this.

Typical replacement time of what? You never need to replace an SSD if it doesn't wear out.

You shouldn't really use swap on an SSD in the first place. It reduces the drive's lifespan.

Yea the FOSS community is one of the most toxic big communities I've ever seen.

Tbh with all I know, this situation is very weird and may have signs of conspiracy. I personally wouldn't trust any sources, including the developer themselves. People can be pretty unhinged nowadays for pretty ridiculous reasons.

I've never had too many issues on HP machines but there are other reasons to avoid that manufacturer, such as build quality.

Fedora is kind of a US project though. It's not as big of a deal as Windows and personally I'm fine with that but it's still something to consider.

You won't go very far with 25 GB, especially with backups enabled. Get a new drive or delete other stuff you have on it.

No, the drama is solely Linus's fault imo.

 

I think it's just nice to be able to verify a file with a right click instead of opening the terminal and typing the *sum command. Yes, it is technically bloat, but also good for time saving.

 

What do you think about this? I'm personally against anything enabled by default, especially if it can cause slowdowns. However I understand the importance of backups so this change makes some sense.
