I'm not sure what a flatpak version could possibly do any better than the version I use.

The official OBS flatpak supports more codecs and integrations than some distro packages.

Stability is also a factor, especially on rolling or cutting edge distros. Fedora RPM release of Blender did not work for me at all with an nvidia GPU, for example.

If you have multiple monitors with different refresh rates, you'll notice immediately.

AFAIK no systemd -> no flatpak -> don't recommend to newbs. Say what you will about flatpak, but it is the official distribution method for some popular pieces of software and large GUI software generally works better through it (in my experience) - think Blender, GIMP etc.

nvtop also works with AMD now and is way nicer than radeontop IMO

What's wrong with Jerboa? Been using it since I left reddit, seems perfectly fine to me.

If you're thinking about the recent thing, the real Go library (boltdb/bolt) was not compromised at all. The malware was in a similarly named package (boltdb-go/bolt), this is called "typosquatting".

IME it substantially increased download speeds as well. There's stuff that I would not have gotten at all without port forwarding.

AFAIK that's exactly what it does.

Interesting, I've had 3 Gigabyte MOBOs and GPUs. One GPU died after 6 years, which is unfortunate, but seems reasonable. First MOBO is still going strong 10 years later. Have had no issues otherwise.

Well, for example, my MOBOs Ethernet requires the Realtek out of tree drivers (at least it still did on 6.11), which don't always compile on the current kernel. Ironically, the WiFi works fine.

I suspect most of the resource usage is LSP plugins, so equivalently configured neovim should be about the same, really. If you use VSCode as a plain text editor, it does not use that much RAM.

Apparently Chromium has merged support for it, so it should get to Electron soon-ish: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/5871484

Since nvidia drivers do not properly implement implicit sync, this protocol not existing is the root cause of flickering with nvidia graphics on Wayland. This MR being merged means that Wayland might finally be usable with nvidia graphics with the next driver release.

EDIT: Nvidia dev posted that support is planned in the 555 driver, with beta release planned for May 15: https://github.com/NVIDIA/egl-wayland/pull/104#issuecomment-2010292221
