I’d never admit it irl or to anyone I know because it’s petty. But it bothers me when cs people refer to themselves as engineers.
Referring to themselves as scientists would seriously be a step past that.

Is it not stable?
Can you not set it up and then not have ongoing issues?
You are going to get gaslit to hell about this on lemmy. But no. It is not stable in the sense you mean.
The effort is worth it though.
All of this. Plus often it just doesn’t work.
And no. I do not want to blind fiddle with the permissions to fix it.
Yet they scream when their 6 months old un-updated windows install wants then to update
The problem isn’t the OS being out of date I wouldn’t think, it’s the applications they actually use. Flatpaks are kind of a solution but not really.
It’s a hard sell explaining to new people that they will have software up to a couple years out of date.

I love the idea of kdeconnect but it wreaks havoc on my battery, on both phone and laptop.
Awesome. I’ll give mailsprint a try, thanks!
Do you get background notifications with Geary?
. I couldn’t use gnome online accounts as that’s blocked by policy
Oh that explains a lot, thank you.
Right, I wasnt as clear as I should have.
As of this second I have all 3 clients I mentioned fetching e-mails while they’re open. However none of them fetch e-mails in the background, and geary/evolution seem to just… break sometimes and I have to redo the process to add business gmail/proton accounts to it.
My main issue is the fetching e-mails in the background though, it doesnt feel to me as if it should be something that difficult or niche.
the developers seem to think that users do not need this functionality
Weird.
I can get the clients to fetch the e-mail atm, the issue is what I wrote above, is there a simple way to get thunderbird to fetch them from the moment I turn the pc on and give me notifications about it?

It would be easier if you told us specifically what programs you need that aren’t supported.
These are the ones I install on every system:
ttf-caladea 20200113-3
ttf-carlito 20230509-1
ttf-fira-code 6.2-2
ttf-liberation 2.1.5-1
ttf-linux-libertine-g 20120116-7
adobe-source-sans-fonts 3.052-1
adobe-source-serif-fonts 4.005-1
noto-fonts-cjk 20230817-1
noto-fonts-extra 1:23.11.1-1
Currently trying otf-monaspace though and I quite like it.
Don’t let people here make you feel like you have to defend yourself for the things you like.
“I love windows” is a phrase only uttered by the truly deranged. But if you love it you love it.
Most of the issue is that they’re unreliable. Sometimes the app will work. Sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes you have to fiddle blindly with flatseal settings, which ones? Who knows? Guessing is part of the fun.
It’d be a great thing if it just worked.
