Are media codecs hard to install on Fedora? I haven’t daily driven Fedora in a while, but last I remember it was one of the top-level categories in GNOME Software. Click it then install all the things. Although I suppose if the user didn’t know what a media codec is that wouldn’t help them very much

I started on Ubuntu if I recall correctly, then made the jump to Fedora at some point. I think Manjaro was in there too? That was my first exposure to KDE Plasma

At some point I installed Arch in a VM and then I was hooked. These days I daily drive Arch with Hyprland (apps and whatnot provided by Plasma)

Make sure the btrfs-progs package is installed. I got the same error from mkinitcpio when I redid my computer using btrfs and forgot that package

Of course.

You don’t have to drop everything you’re doing to get the data off, it’s not like the drive has minutes to live. However, you must unplug it and stop using it until you have time to move everything off of it

Make sure power management is properly configured on the Nvidia card.

I had this exact issue on an MSI motherboard. What ended up being the fix for me was changing the “Wake Up Event By” toggle in my UEFI. It was set to “BIOS”. Changing it to “OS” immediately fixed all the issues I was having with suspend

Command suggestions can be provided by the shell too for what it’s worth. fish ships with autosuggestion and autocompletion. For zsh, you need a separate plugin (but it’s well worth it)

This is really great info! I never knew Multipass existed, thanks for sharing.

For macOS, Homebrew can be used to selectively replace certain parts of the coreutils with the GNU versions

Edit: On reviewing the script you mentioned, that’s exactly what it does. It uses Homebrew to replace all the coreutils in one go
