I feel like they added a lot of technological jargon to the the simple thing that is,

How to use power button to wake up laptop on tablet mode (lemdro.id)
 

cross-posted from: https://piefed.social/post/206134

Recently I switched to Fedora 40 from Ununtu. Now, I am facing this weird problem, whenever my laptop suspends I cannot use the power button to wake my laptop if it's in tablet mode. It works fine in normal case. Also, this wasn't an issue in Ubuntu. Anyone knows how I can change it?

I am using a 2in1 laptop (Dell) if it's relevant

I was also looking into alternatives after all the fiasco and wanted to go with Floorp, but turns out floorp is also doing some shady stuff. Recently they made all their fork only part of the code source available from open source. I don't know about you, but that feels pretty shady to me.

Why is flathub saying Floorp is proprietary (lemdro.id)
 

I am very new to linux and all the open source stuff (my first post on lemmy actually) so I don't get how this stuff works but flathub is saying that floorp is proprietary. But after a quick google search it says that floorp is open source licensed under MPL 2.0
