Modal dialogs. Making it impossible to move the window or reference something else in the same interface.

Toasts on android. No idea where the toasts came from and no way to look up what the toast said after it disappears.

Historical reasons I believe and also because packages are signed. Though there's been a few vulnerabilities that have made TLS (IMHO) a necessity. As well as just preventing snooping. Modern debian and apt should support TLS out of the box now.

Unlikely to be the problem, but I'd switch the config to use https URLs.

If you use a package that depends on pyside2, then you might be stuck. You could try building pyside2 with a modified PKGBUILD. This seems like a bug/difference in behavior with paru: https://github.com/Morganamilo/paru/issues/1377

If you're adventurous, you could use another package management tool. Not familiar with garuda though.

Or maybe wait until paru developers possibly change their tool, or the AUR package happens to change to work around paru behavior?

Funny to see this today. I had moved a repo from an old Mac laptop to linux months ago, and git couldn't find the ref to HEAD, because HEAD was pointing to the case insensitive branch name, and it didn't match the case of the branch. Manually edited HEAD to the correct case to fix it. I should probably recreate the repo for good measure..

Good to hear. I think jellyfin could be improved so that it doesn't completely clear migrations.xml every time a new migration is applied when it starts up (switch from a Create to an OpenOrCreate on the file). Although a low disk situation can be difficult for software to deal with typically anyway.

Can you check your config folder (seems like it's /etc/jellyfin for you) for migrations.xml and system.xml? I'm guessing if you were low on disk, jellyfin tried to write to them, but couldn't, so it left empty files which it can't now read from.

I've been using bose 700s for a long time. They do occasionally have goofy bluetooth behavior and the earcups have to be replaced if you use them heavily, but the bose sound profile I like a lot more than the sony.

I've tried XM5's recently for more codecs, and I love them except for one thing, which was that the band over the top had hard plastic parts and not enough soft padding, so the headphones with my head shape had a tendency to painfully squeeze. Wearing a hat or putting something on the band helped though. Headphones were light and breathed a bit better than the 700s anyway (haven't tried the QC 2).
