Yeah this is true. FolderSync for cloud and Syncthing for p2p should work nicely.

I realise now that I can think of one too. Which is that you don’t need to host it anywhere if you use something like Syncthing.

Every pro you listed is applicable to Vaultwarden as well. But I assume you misread it as Bitwarden.

I can’t think of a reason to choose Keepass over Vaultwarden.

You know what annoys me about the people defending Epic’s lawsuit? The fact that there are actually legitimate issues with Valve and somehow they’re hyper-fixated on the non-issues. If they were instead talking about CS2 gambling, lootboxes, etc, I would be in support of it. But no, it’s about how they’re a “monopoly” because they’re one of only two stores that seem to care about their customers…

For installing Flatpaks via GUI, if you’re using GNOME, you can use Bazaar or GNOME Software and if you’re on KDE, you can use Discover. I’ll always recommend staying away from Manjaro though. Holding packages for 2 weeks breaks AUR compatibility often and as a former AUR package maintainer, I’m not a fan of that. They sometimes end up delaying important fixes too and they have a history of neglecting security. I’d definitely recommend cachyOS over Manjaro. CachyOS also has a very friendly forum if you end up needing help. For something more similar to Manjaro and closer to Arch (without all the performance patching and stuff), EndeavourOS is a great option. Ah well, basically, anything other than Manjaro.

I’d say, don’t bother. For me, I was already on Arch, as I’ve been for years, so switching package repositories isn’t a big deal and I could just as easily switch back. So when I noticed some minor performance issues with Arkham Knight on base arch, I thought “why not”. There’s also the fact that Bazzite can’t work for me because of its immutable nature. If you’re happy with how things are going right now, I don’t think there’s a reason to switch. Of course, there’s always the “why not” factor for everyone :)

But wait… If you haven’t had any issues, why bother trying something else?

To clarify, I use cachyOS packages on arch. So, I can’t give a review of the distro itself. But the packages do work really well for gaming, especially their kernel and their proton variant. I use GNOME and force Proton to use Wayland and FSR4. So far, so good.

The thing is, I game. And I’ve found CachyOS to be performing better on games than Windows. In fact, I’m running Expedition 33 with forced FSR4 on a Navi 2 GPU (which isn’t supposed to support FSR4) and it performs better than with FSR3 on Windows. That honestly surprised me. Unfortunate that FSR is becoming a requirement for so many modern games (thanks UE5). And then there’s anticheat…

This is what bothers me so much… Browsers should be improving their PWA implementation (looking at you, Firefox) and electron apps should be PWAs more often. Another decent middle ground Is Tauri. SilverBullet and Yaak are both so much lighter and better than anything else on my system.

Yeah, all the Proton hate we’re seeing are overreactions. But life is easier when you can see everything as black and white when things are actually more nuanced.

Nushell?
