Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

    Today’s mission: set up dual boot on my laptop and hopefully not melt or defenestrate the entire thing.

        Fedora kde and win11. I’m using OneDrive as a file server/ online backup though so I’m probably just making my life difficult but I hate the way AI is being bolted onto windows when it’s unreliable and built on janky datasets.

          Any plans on gaming on Linux? If so, I’d recommend Nobara instead (which is based on Fedora, but optimized for gaming).

            I’m very much a casual (half-assed) gamer. I’m just as happy with a nice-looking Freecell as whatever Steam feels like sharing. I’ll probably spend more time tinkering with WINE to see if I can get Affinity running on it so I don’t have to boot into windows except for work.

                Affinity has Pantone support built in and can switch between publisher and photo mode flawlessly so the workflow is better than inDesign/Photoshop. As for work stuff, I’m stuck with Adobe products so it’s more or less non-negotiable. Most of what I do is done in inDesign so I think Scribus would be the closest alternative, but I’ll be trying everything I think. It’s probably 5 years since I last used linux as a daily driver so I’m keen to see how far the software has come.
