The main problem with case-insensitive is that software sometimes is lazily developed: If a file is named “File.txt” and a program opens “file.txt”, then on a case-insensitive file system it will work fine. If you then format your drive to case-sensitive, the same software now fails to load the file. Source: tried case-sensitive filesystem on macOS some years ago.

Incorporates 3rd-party DRM: EA on-line activation and Origin client software installation and background use required

Requires 3rd-Party Account: EA Account (Supports Linking to Steam Account)

Seems like another cursed EA game with built-in spyware.

My Steelseries Prime Wireless only has basic functionality working. I could run the software via Wine or VM (don’t remember) but it didn’t remember the settings after a power cycle of the mouse or the PC (also don’t remember).

The scanning is done on your device. You could theoretically only overload the CSAM reporting feature if such a thing will exist.

Have an upvote. I’d pay double what Affinity is currently asking to have their products on Linux. Gimp is the opposite of intuitive.

Not all of it though. Like JST plugs, barrel connectors, breadboard pin spacing, etc.

If a driver doesn't behave properly, the things that are built on top of it won't work properly either. When that misbehaving driver is not open source, you're at the mercy of the vendor.. It's common knowledge for over a decade that nVidia drivers are problematic with Linux - especially on laptops. Bad drivers are entirely nVidia's fault.

I've been running Wayland with Intel graphics on my laptop and my desktop runs a Radeon. I've had 0 Wayland issues in the past years.

A trigger warning on this post for Android devs would’ve been nice.

The existence of ArchWiki and the Arch User Respository (AUR). And rolling releases, if that’s your thing.

No issues here with Gnome via Arch on a Framework 13. At 150% scaled if recall correctly.

My only regret for picking team red is that DaVinci Resolve doesn’t support hardware encoding.

why doesnt GNOME have a maximize button

Probably because you can double-click the window 'bar' to achieve the same.
