I would rather recommend checking out Flatpak along with Flathub.org.

I've had great success using them as an alternative to the store.

All valid points. Having had similar suspend issues previously on my Nvidia equipped machine the solution was to switch to the proprietary drivers (my other AMD machine has no such issues).

And since I do my whole system config via Ansible I tend to forget about how abysmal the store is.

idk, for me the lack of drastic changes but rather a steady stream of compounding improvements over the years has been welcomed.

And most of those have been under the hood (kernel, systemd, wayland etc).

But if you want true visual evolution something like Sway (via Hyprland) would do it.

I am really missing the edit feature from Mastodon....

Ah well then I'll live with it. Thanks for clearing it up for me!

Few things can beat a real Yule tree 🎄

Curious to know if the trunk is being kept submerged in enough water?

Once air gets into it, the tree starts shedding needles at an accelerated rate (the same happens if the trunk isn't cleaned so that the tree can "drink").

Quickly checked out if this was possible to do via adb and turns out, yes!

Doesn't seem to universally work though. My Pixel 6a doesn't accept the modified value, but various Samsung's and Motorola's I have laying around did.

Sure, the UI layer has changed, but everything else is pretty much the same.

In no particular order, the knowledge of all these (and more) is still relevant for any non-trivial apps:

packaging, services, file system, permissions, DI, testing, background work, intent system, Gradle etc.
