The conflict was triggered when the state High Court gave a verdict in favour of the Meiti community for a long standing demand for special previliges.

The Wikipedia article about the violence has a good overview.

I was also getting panics on 2 of my systems on Linux 6.3.9 but hasn't happened on 6.4

Of course they need the software and that's why they contribute to make it better. That's how most of the FOSS development works anyway. People have an 'itch' to fix the issues or add a feature and they do it and the license makes sure that others benefit from that itch.

Apart from RHEL, RedHat contributes to hundreds of FOSS projects and hires a lot of FOSS devs. So their contribution in progressing the desktop linux is huge. You can see the contributions to the various project here: https://www.redhat.com/en/about/open-source-program-office/contributions

Believe it or not corporates play a big role in making Linux what it is and their enshittification is bad for Linux ecosystem.

Sad that RedHat went this way.

I have 2 systems and both are AMD machines with impressive performance per watt (obviously not as good as Apple's M series). Intel has a long way to go before they can be a genuine alternative.

When was the last time you tried? And which GPU?

While Linux phones seem a distant dream. I think these are the major features that are needed for it to be a suitable daily driver for developers:

• Waydroid - Cause we gotta have android apps.
• Proper 5G/4G/3G Support.
• Availability of more devices that can run Linux.

I understand and X works fine for a lot od people but do remember the number of developers maintaining it have been dropping year on year. No harm in trying IMO. If you are on Plasma or Gnome, you get a simple switcher on the login screen.

LOL

Signature for Izzy and Github are same.

IMO for now, post everything on this community itself as it is not that active. We can slowly diversify into niches but we first need to improve interaction.

Linux Mint is going to be an excellent choice for a beginner. Go ahead.

Just out of curiosity, what are the main hurdles that prevent you from a full transition?
