Well, that really makes a difference!

I only get a couple of problems.

• A panel that wraps content is sized to one icon when logging in for the first time
• Plasma Shell occasionally crashes and restarts

But then, I’m not running a stock plasma, I have a few add-ons compiled from source and a few widgets downloaded from the get new things. One of those could be causing the crash but I haven’t proved that yet. I’m fairly sure the panel is a plasma bug.

Edit: Oh and sorting pinned icons in the icons only taskbar is a real pain in wayland.

You’re messing with partitions which means there is the potential for data loss, be it hardware, human error, or a random cat. You should, if the data is important to you, have a backup.

Is it read only?

Why?

Let me put the question back to you. How do think the uniquely identifiable information will help them improve Manjaro?

Do you think they’ve got a Russian satellite and will track down your HDD serial number from space?

No.

There’s lots of benefits to telemetry.

As I basically said, if you bothered to read my comment.

They’ve let TLS certs expire on multiple occasions.

And they told their community to set their clocks back. As a workaround, it will work but all your created and modified data will have the wrong timestamps.

enable telemetry by default … MAC addresses, disk serial numbers

Another reason to not use Manjaro. Just use Endeavour instead.

Edit: I’m not against telemetry pre se. I have the KDE feedback enabled for example but that was opt in and sends no unique data.

I hesitate to say

You can’t fool me, they have another daemon for that

Update /etc/systemd/resolved.conf and add some DNS servers (in this example, 1.1.1.1 is CloudFlare, and 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 are Google but you can use your preferred DNS servers.)

[Resolve]
DNS=1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8
FallbackDNS=8.8.4.4

Restart system resolved:

service systemd-resolved restart

Run resolvectl status (or systemd-resolve --status in older versions of systemd) to see if the settings took.

If they don’t take after a reboot, there’s something else going on.

Pro: you have a custom kernel.

Con: the next morning, you can have a non-functioning computer with no idea of what you did.

Recompile your kernel whilst drunk

Technically, all comedy is staged unless you’re laughing at someone’s real life misfortune.

It’s boring to write

KDE Plasma because it’s the one I like. If it disappeared tomorrow, I’d use Xfce.

They can be maintainers if they can document that they are volunteers and do not work for any state sponsored entity. I don’t know haw easy that will be in practice.

It’s background being so dark really clashed with the default light theme for KDE:

But it has toilets

Can’t comment on Gnome as I don’t use it, but that hasn’t been my experience with KDE. Previously running Tumbleweed and now running EndeavourOS

Language evolves

Weren’t they called videocasts at one point?
