  • Just by chance I was in your exact situation. I have Vodafone Kabel with theoretically only ipv4 over ipv6. If you ring them up and say you're looking to set up port forwarding and you have a specific legacy application that needs an ipv4 address, like an MS-DOS server without a TCP6 stack, they have the ability to assign you an ipv4 address. I had to get passed to second level support for them to do this though, but they ended up doing it for me for no additional cost! Try it out and viel Erfolg wünsche ich dir :-)

  • I can vouch for a wireguard+jellyfin setup - I don't have it on a VPS though. Instead, I have a little mini PC running opnsense (and wireguard) in the attic. I can open one port, connect from almost everywhere and have access to my whole internal network while I'm away.

  • So they can push and pull at the same time, silly!

  • I had a friend once with the inflatable version of those shoes.

    Unfortunately he has popped his clogs.

  • I am shocked, I tell you. Shocked.

  • This would look banging as ANSI art.

  • Hey Pacman. What's up?

  • As a brit, this actually looks pretty tasty!

  • The downvotes are not from me. I'm just trying to understand your angle and (perceived) frustrations. No offence intended here.

    However, Bazzite IS Fedora, so you may run in to similar issues that have bothered you about Bazzite too.

  • This is actually a very relevant question: Bazzite is pretty much designed to avoid breakage, so if your fiancée is messing up the system somehow, something must be seriously going wrong.

    But, to answer your question. If impatient, take Fedora with the same desktop flavor as her Bazzite, so probably the Fedora KDE Spin, as that is the default desktop Bazzite uses.

    However: Bazzite basically is Fedora with sane defaults and, contrary to popular belief, isn't just for gaming. Under the hood it has many powerful tools for development and power-users, such as distrobox and brew, coupled with being pretty much bullet proof due to the immutability. If you consider yourself in this group of users, it may be worth giving Bazzite another look and persevering to get over the odd learning curve.

  • Chuckled too much about "/s for the morons". I might be stealing that!

  • Cool Bug Fact Is?

  • Do you think they did the operations for cheap or were they a rip-off?

  • Agreed. Bloody fantastic for general purpose. Seems like a well kept secret. A lot of people assume Bazzite is just Steam in Big-Screen mode.

  • To be honest you are in the right place already. If you take the first step and install Mint, Fedora Kinoite or something similar on the laptop, there are many people here who would be willing to offer you support for free here on Lemmy.

    You won't find a lot of support IRW/IRL though as many companies are still sleep-walking in the Windows world.

    You will however need to take some steps for yourself. If you're willing to get over that first hurdle, you will almost certainly find someone here to help you with any problem you have (including installation).

  • So, I’m an all-around Bazzite fan, but it does have a bit of an odd learning curve. It’s easy to use for a beginner, child, or grandma. However, if you’re used to fiddling with your system, it might be a little harder to get into because you have to navigate the immutable nature of the OS, which can complicate some online tutorials and potentially lead to frustration for an intermediate/experienced user migrating from Windows.

    So my suggestion would be:

    Child - Bazzite

    Grandma - Bazzite

    Gamer - Bazzite

    Experienced Windows user - Fedora or Mint, then once you’re used to Linux, Bazzite

    Developer - Bazzite

    I personally use the Gnome version. It's really polished and pretty.

  • En garde!

  • Snuffed it.
