I'm doing another one of my little surveys, this time to see which parts of using #Linux on the desktop are the most problematic, and the various issues people are having.

I'll make a video on these results next week, and depending on the answers, maybe I'll make more videos on specific issues, either to explain these topics, or to see how we could improve.

So, here is the form, feel free to fill it out and share it around, so we have as many answers as possible!

If you’re looking for #OpenSource app recommendations, you probably generally land in the usual « LibreOffice / GIMP » space.

But what about other apps, like Obsidian, Notion, VS Code, Teams or Slack?

Well, I have a few recommendations for these as well, if you want to go all open source (and they all run on #Linux, of course):

Since a lot of people seemed to enjoy the video where I talked about the #OpenSource software I use, here is a video with all the stuff I run on my #NAS, and the things that I still need to set up on it:

A lot of developers reports they use #Linux as their main professional OS (only 47% in 2022 though), so let’s see why a Linux distribution is the best choice for most developers:

(Yes, not ALL developers, there are always exceptions)

It's time for another #Linux and #OpenSource news video!

In this one, we have some nasty flaws in AMD and Intel CPUs that require performance-reducing mitigation patches (potentially brutal for Intel especially).

We also have some nice features for #KDE Plasma 6 and #GNOME 45, and an alliance between SUSE and Oracle to offer RHEL source code to the community:

I had already taken a superficial look at macOS, a year ago, but now, I spent 30 days with it, as my main OS, on an M1 MacBook Pro.

And boy am I glad this is over, and glad to be back on #Linux!

Here are my conclusions about the hardware, the software, and the general experience of using a Mac as a Linux user:

Even though I absolutely love #Linux, sometimes I get tired of encountering the same issues over and over again, and of the "it's 99% there" situation.

Let me know if you agree with these issues or not, and if you have others that personally bother you.

(Also, 2nd video out of 4 that isn't edited by me, previous feedback has been incorporated partially, let me know what you thought!)

I’m currently outside having a beer, so I don’t quite have time to write a summary of today’s #Linux and #OpenSource video, so you’ll have to watch the video:

In this week’s #Linux and #OpenSource News video, we have the new #Ubuntu App Store that will demote deb packages, we have the alpha of #GNOME 45, and #Fedora proposing to add telemetry in a future release.

Let’s take a look:
