I also have AMD and do updates regularly and didn’t have this issue, but I think the problem is pretty apparent and has been for quite some time. Packman repository should not be used by non-knowledgeable users! I am not exactly sure what that means for daily use, but as seen here it creates issues if you are not aware what an update actually does or just press “yes, yes, yes” to all questions in an update process.

In regards to plymouth I have no clue, but it seems this should be easily manageable by booting into a previous snapshot?

Is this fakenews or is my tumbleweed install at home hardened… any TW users here heard of this?

Totally agree with OP, this also works with different editors like Helix.

your late to the party

I mean I am not sure, but in matrix you can just “reply” to a comment in a chat room and therefore create a thread? In discord you can have whole “chatrooms” be transfered to discussion only with threads. I am not sure about the terminology but it looks very different to me. Basically, you can set Discord up like a community board etc.

I agree, but working on an alternative an cultivating it could be a good start. Look at mastodon or lemmy.

No, matrix is still very focused on chat room sadly and for the video conferencing you need to use jitsi as far as I am aware, at least thats how we’ve set it up at work. The thread function in discord is much better actually.

Not in my bubble, chats create insurmountable loads of noise. By focusing on threads you get the discussion much more focused and streamlined. Example: Most of my discords are ttrpg related, where with the usage of bots games are scheduled. Or where discussion are happening around certain ttrpg systems.

I agree that a lot of discord servers focus on chat rooms. But you could retain that by simply having 1-2 chatrooms per server and structure/direct conversations to dedicated threads/voice chats instead.

Again this is just MY view. I am totally aware that other people, use it differently.

We would have to sit down and actually think what an opensource solution can achieve and how it gets traction. Also from the get go it should be clear that there will be no feature parity between it and discord. If it was me, I would cut out the whole chatroom functionality, leave private messaging in, use threaded conversations as a standard and but a decent videocall system on top. But this would be my version of it, other people have other needs.

For the video call system you would not have to reinvent the wheel, use something existing like Jitsi (?) or alternatives. Then you would

Maybe the best bet is to look at matrix and wrench out the chatroom focus and replace it with threads?

Teamspeak is no alternative to discord. Sorry. Also its not even open source, is it?

who in their sane mind uses zoom on their private device. holy molly

Lets create an alternative.

Not written in rust, yuck! 😆
