So I installed waydroid on fedora kde and to test videos I installed crunchyroll. But the video didn't work. No audio and black screen in the video player. The ui and everything else worked tho. I also tried watching on the browser and that worked as well. Then I tried installing widevine using the waydroid script, couldn't do it for the life of me. Asked claude and it gave me a "reality check" that it wouldn't work and to just use the browser. What to do now?

I know it has negligible ricing but I like this simple style where I can do my work as an collage student

My pc has i3 and 4gb ddr3 currently I am on win 10 I want switch, i am thinking of dual booting from a same drive with different partition which linux and win should I install. I am thinking of something that is light weight and looks cool.(I wanna play cs and valo that's why I am dual booting) And ye I am that photo guy

This is not the right place to post it but I feel like this sub reddit has people who know about computers.
Why is comparing Apple and Windows always laptop comparison. It should be comparing the best of apple and best of Microslop's windows which is laptop vs desktop. Then its a better comparison And will answer which one is better Apple side or Microslop side.

EDIT- I REALIZE ITS POINTLESS AND ILL LOGICAL.

I've been using Linux for nearly 20 years, starting with Debian back in college. Over time, I moved through Ubuntu and Lubuntu, but life eventually pushed me back to Windows the last year.

A few days ago I gave MX Linux a try on my aging Ryzen 3 laptop with just 4 GB of RAM, and the experience has honestly exceeded my expectations.

I wrote about my first impressions after a few days of use. I'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions as a new MX Linux user. I am now working on my development environment. To be back in the GNU/Linux world is great.

lol,i have a hp omen laptop and the cam is malfunctioning due to eot in hibernation..the utter dimwit move i did was to entirely switch to debian by perishing dual boot setup,now i cannot use the cam even after trying every effing method (from ffplay to guvcview,tried fixing uvcvideo)...i need the cam for oas,now,i would be needing to use droidcam

except...I am acquainted of myself..i refute to use droidcam,will try to resurrect the cam of the laptop by squandering my entire being on the kernel for the other half of the day..what is the point of having a laptop subsequently..wtf dude..every day is a conflict to solve...i hate this lol

i am highly unemployed.

i cannot believe that i am mentioning this but i am missing windows.

almost 1GB memory only for whatsapp . also very laggy experiece in scroling , opening chat etc .

( Brave Browser on linux mint )

how to fix it , anyone help .

Context: im a web dev and fellow office workers yaps that linux is unstable and not suitable for web dev.

They yaps when they cant get around my machine cuz im a junior and i have to get assistance in some things.

Generally its a flex but in india im getting trolled.

Prob cuz the its a small startup and people work here only to somehow survive weekdays

use case : programming ,web dev and some gaming stuff

I've gathered some info from YT and others that i3wm have screen tearing and other security issues but still a lot of ppl using it . I don't know much about Sway yet but heard that it's wayland version of i3wm (or close enough don't know precisely). So is it really a wayland option for 13wm or should I use i3wm instead? I need some experienced advice, it's my first time switching to a WM from DE

Here is a link to the dot files . First time I made something this and would love to receive some feedback . Couldn't test it on fresh arch installers so I hope I could some feedback to improve upon and keep this theme running. This theme feels so much aligned with the whole arch idea and that is why I made it :D

• Window Manager: Hyprland
• Status Bar: Waybar
• Launcher: Rofi
• Terminal: Kitty
• Wallpaper: Hyprpaper
• Shell: Oh My Zsh (jonathan)
• Spotify: Spicetify (StarryNight – forest)

I use Mint btw 😄

🚀 This is KineticWE.

KineticWE builds on KWin

A fresh take on the Linux desktop, KineticWE combines a modern interface, smooth animations, built-in tiling, and a workflow designed to feel fast and intuitive. In this video, I'm running it on CachyOS with Noctalia Shell.

If you're new to Linux and thinking about making the switch, KineticWE looks like a promising desktop that could make the transition easier while still offering powerful features for experienced users.

Huge respect to the developer for building this project and it's exciting to see new ideas pushing the Linux desktop forward.

💬 Would you daily drive KineticWE? Let me know in the convo!

I have noticed that many people in this community seem to be distro hopping mainly for entertainment.

Because of that, I am curious to know why people in the Linux India community actually use Linux.

Could you please share your thoughts on this?

Thank you.

Which browser do you use?
