Not saying I disagree with you but you can imagine how strongly I feel about snaps being utter garbage then ;-)

Press F to say "Fuck u/spez" ? lol

I think this would mostly only really impact a select few who are trying to do a fresh install with 6.3 kernel, as very few live discs use proprietary drivers during install (is it only PopOS that does that?). Even then most mainstream distros wouldn't have had live discs with 6.3 (Fedora 38 did not and I'm guessing all Debian based ones had an older kernel). Not sure about Arch and OpenSUSE tho

Anyway, the good news is that there's already a patch for this out with 6.4 so even those handful that would have been affected should be fine now:

Exactly. The ask is about user convenience and functionality rather than mirroring Reddit. If there was a better way, I am not at all opposed to that as long as I retain the ability to make what amounts to my own curated, personal feeds.

And I agree, even just being able to pin/favorite mags in-app (currently relying on Firefox bookmarks lol) would be a great add and one that should probably come before my ask

I think that is probably part of a bigger discussion. For the scope of what I was asking, consider it as only a more advanced "view" functionality (in the database sense) that allows displaying results from a specific subset of magazines.

I actually think it would be really cool if such a view worked with federation, as that would allow for things such as having similar magazines/communities/whatever mastodon calls their subreddit equivalent from multiple sources displayed in a single feed (e.g. say one or more lemmy linux communities and kbin Linux communities)... as a single url the user could bookmark as simply "Linux".

For now though, I would be thrilled to even have this ability for local magazines

• /d = domain (e.g. so for the lemmygrad.ml domain, you'd use https://kbin.social/d/lemmygrad.ml )

And then there is a block button in the right side panel, next to the Subscribe link. At least, for desktop...

For mobile (even in "desktop site" view), it seems to appear beneath the list of posts/etc rather than as a right side panel. Just use find-in-page and search for "Subscribe"; should be right next to that.

TBH, I don't really think of them at all either... /s

Not saying they are bad but IMO sites that require invite-to-join (tildes), application-to-join (beehaw), or lock their content behind a login gateway (discord, many of the more mainsteam sites) are not very good for true freedom of expression. Reddit had many, many flaws but one thing I always liked about them was the ease by which one could create a throwaway account to voice an unpopular opinion without having to risk bans/downvotes/other repercussions on their main account. Yes, I know that taken to extremes, this could be abused but for the most part, it seemed to work fairly well and I saw it used to good effect many times.

Agreed. Indexing helps a LOT for discovery both of new content and old answers alike ... Would love to see kbin start showing up in search results instead of Reddit when trying to find answers to technical issues...

Discord seems like its gonna be the true reddit successor.

Not disagreeing that the masses will likely flock to it due to brand recognition and such ...

But man does that make me sad too... Really hate how locked down Discord is in comparison (like you can't even browse content without a login and using from the browser is painful compared to using a client). Add in their past (and possibly present) privacy issues and the fact that like Reddit, they are also a centralized site run by another greedy company and I feel like this is yet another recipe for disaster (albeit one that might take awhile to fully materialize)

Not the same guy

And I'm not saying any of these are worthy of going Fedora proper vs Nobara... that's going to be a personal call for each person I think. I think they're both good but here are some differences I've noticed (not a complete list by any means):

• Nobara updates are a bit behind Fedora's.
• Nobara switched away from Fedora's Anaconda installer to Calamares. For many, this is probably a welcome change. For me, it very much was NOT bc Calamares, despite possibly being more intuitive for some, currently does not support all of the same functionality that Anaconda does. For instance, I prefer the Fedora style FDE partitioning scheme (ESP partition + unencrypted ext4 /boot partition + LUKS version 2 volume with /) as well as putting my installs in custom BTRFS subvol's... Neither of which was supported by Calamares as of 6 months ago when I last checked. Talking about graphical options only for both installers, though if someone knows how to specify it anyway from Calamares, I would be interested.
• Nobara switched to AppArmor recently. For most, this is probably easier than SELinux. And I think it is great that AppArmor is being supported in Nobara. TBH, I wish it were an option in Fedora too despite the fact that I personally would likely continue to use SELinux - but I am just generally in favor of more options.
• Nobara pushes Wayland a lot more than Fedora does. Sure, it is the default in Fedora Workstation (as well as the KDE spin). But if you are in one of those use-cases that isn't quite ready yet (typically people who either prefer a certain desktop like Cinnamon/Mate, have nvidia cards, and/or have some need for certain x11 windowing tools that don't have mature replacements yet), then Nobara might be a tougher jump at present

I can't help but shake the feeling the author dismissed Flatpak from the get-go because it was not was the author wants.

Fair. But at least he's not trying to sell us on snaps lol
