    For those that don't know army MPs have to get this done for training.

  • Distro suggestions for grandparents?
  • I never said it had a GUI store, but if your installing things for grand parents it's pretty easy through the root account, that the grand parents dont have access to. Go to https://search.nixos.org/packages search for one like Firefox and copy the command.

    How is this harder than Arch?

  • Distro suggestions for grandparents?
  • I'm not sure why it's harder than Arch. It basically has it's own app store and you select the stuff from their website to install through the terminal.
    Could you expand in your reasoning?

  • Distro suggestions for grandparents?
  • NixOS is an immutable file system if they are disaster prone. You will have to load everything for them ahead of time, browser, email client, Only/Libre Office, etc.

    I had to switch a friend's mom to this because after switching her to Linux Mint previously, she somehow deleted the UI entirely.

  • [Resolved] Has F-Droid been abandoned?

    I noticed that my web is 1.37.5, Google Play store has 1.37.4 and F-droid has 1.35.0.

    Has F-droid been abandoned?

    Edit: Resolved. It seems an update has been pushed yesterday but did not show (at least for me) until after posting.

    (Android Authority) Don’t expect Firefox for Android to get tablet UI anytime soon
    www.androidauthority.com Don't expect Firefox for Android to get tablet UI anytime soon

    Mozilla has confirmed that optimized tablet UI is not a priority for the Firefox on Android team and that it is focused on other matters.

    Don't expect Firefox for Android to get tablet UI anytime soon

    TL;DR (From Android Authority) • Mozilla responded to a review mentioning the lack of tablet UI optimization for Firefox on Android. • Mozilla confirmed that its team is not working on optimizing the tablet experience at the moment. • Mozilla did, however, say that it hopes to revisit tablet optimization when time and resources permit.

    Gnome custom cursor not working in all applications.

    Hey all. Basic information I am running Pop_os! I have have downloaded and placed a cursor in ~/.icons folder and selected it with gnome tweaks. It seems to work on some but not all applications. It works on Steam, gedit, nautilus but not on any browser, Telegram, or Thunderbird.

    I have tried modifying the /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme file to my selected cursor. I have restarted and no changes.

    To note: Gnome Tweaks still lists Adwaita (default) no mater what I do.

    Is there a way for me to get my chosen cursor to work with all applications?

    [Resolved] Pop!_Shop installed applications immovable and without window control bar

    Original Post

    Hey all! I'm a bit new to the community and I could use some help. A few of the applications I have installed through the Pop!_Shop or through terminal have installed that are pinned to the top left of my screen and can't be moved and do not have the window control bar at the top. I do have gnome-shell-extensions installed as suggested by an older guide.

    Examples: Notepadqq (both entries in Pop!_Shop) !

    Heroic Launcher (Pop!_Shop) !

    Please let me know what I'm doing wrong. Thanks!

    ---

    Resolution

    With the help of @M4775@lemmy.world I was able to determine the issue. The Barney style answer is:

    • Open Extensions or Extension Manager scroll down under System Extensions click the gear next to Pop Shell.
    • In the new window enable the first listed item is Show Window Tiles. !

    Thank you @M4775@lemmy.world

    Edit 1: Fixed broken image links. Edit 2: Resolution.
