I have been using Linux for about 5 years and although I don't consider that I know much, I know enough to fix my own problems and that's usually enough for me.

Since Plasma 6 was announced I wanted to test something other than XFCE, Gnome or Plasma (or any DE) so I give it a try with ArcoLinuxD i3wm and is increible the amount of things I learn the 'hard way' because there was no GUI to do the things I want to do, or maybe I was too lazy to do it with the terminal since there is always the 'easy way'.

Things that might be very easy for a lot of people, but I never take the time to learn, like mounting drives, running programs from startup, setting environment variables, creating desktop entries, and a lot of other things I didn't even remember. I even learned to use things that used to give me a headache just looking at it, like Vim, xdg, the Archwiki (that is super useful) and the manpages.

It's ironic because something that started as an experiment is now my daily drive, and now that Plasma 6 has been released, I don't want to leave i3 behind.

I don't mean to be annoying, but it's been some time since I submitted my registration request, and I still haven't received an update on it, so I don't know if it will ever be accepted.

Every time I open e621 I spend between 30 minutes to 2 hours every day (or sometimes more than once a day) and it's because every time I open it there are ALOT of new posts and artists that I didn't even know existed and I look at all their posts and repeat.

I'm not asking for help and I can control this, but it's like what the Youtube algorithm is for some people who spend a lot of time just scrolling without watching any videos.

Honestly, it's impressive the quality that's in e621.

Does this happen to you?

When you use Alt+Number you automatically switch to the tab that is assigned that number, but when you have more than 9 tabs Alt+9 just switches to the last tab instead of opening tab number 9, and you can't go beyond tab number 9 either, is there any way to go to tabs beyond 9 with Alt+Number?

Maybe I'm forgetting something, but according to something I read, per week a user can get up to 10 random drops but I've been playing for almost 10 hours and I haven't got even one, why?

I recently started using Violentmonkey and there are hundreds of absolutely great scripts like some that help you go straight to the download link instead of shorteners (very common on pirate sites), and there are also some scripts for downloading music from Spotify (I guess using Youtube), but I hardly know any more, anyone know of some scripts for general use or useful for pirating?

Personally I'm sure that if e621 had some kind of 'following' functionality I would probably follow hundreds of artists but as far as I know e621 doesn't provide this kind of functionality, so how I usually keep up with my favorite artists' posts it's just manually searching by their name but just as I said, I easily know more than a hundred artists and usually going one by one is pretty tiring, besides, how am I supposed to know the name of each artist? I barely know by heart the name of the ones I usually look for, but there are many others that I just favorite a post I like and forget about them, because I forget their name and I have many favorites...

I wish to change the default Nautilus file dialog that Firefox uses, to Dolphin (my main file manager) but I cannot find any solution. Every single time I download an image, Nautilus is opened instead of Dolphin.

I tried adding GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 to my env variables, and It didn't work, then I tried changing mimetype and also did not work, I also tried modifying the xdg-portal (sorry if I'm wrong) to use xdg-desktop-portal-kde instead, but I cannot accomplish this since I didn't understand at all the Arch wiki and IIRC some files aren't exactly where the Arch wiki was pointing them.

As a last attempt, I open about:config in Firefox and search for widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal and set it to True, and still I keep having that old Nautilus as my file picker in Firefox, and this last thing usually worked well for me in Plasma.

Edit: I just restarted my pc and now randomly seems that Dolphin it's the file dialog for Firefox, I don't have a single clue how this happen.

I've been using Linux for the past 5 years, and recently I change from DE to WM (i3) which change it my whole workflow. Now I use a lot more the command line to do even simple things.

Recently I note that some relatives called me 'hacker' and I find that kinda funny, may be because I'm so accustomed to the terminal and to i3 that I don't notice that "it looks like a hacker thing".

I've been using the stable release and I'm fine with it, but a feature that I really miss is the multicommunities (or multireddits, how it's called in Infinity).

Does anybody know if the 'multicommunity' feature it's already in Eternity Nightly or it's still WOP?

Edit: Never mind, I installed Eternity Nightly and the PR for the multicommunities feature is already merged, it works as intended although if you try to add a community that you don't follow the app just crash, but apart from that, it works!

I been tempted to buy Battlebit and I know it's a great game, but I just wanted to know which is the state of the game to this moment.

It still receive updates? Can I find matches easily? How it's the development?

And, by the way, how is this game compared to Battlefield 2042? I love Battlefield 2042 despite its problem, but something that I simply cannot fight against it's the fact that the game does not run on Linux because of their anticheat...

Sometimes, at completely random intervals, my FPS just drops and keeps dropping until I reset my game. The only thing that at the moment has worked is playing 720p, all low at 30FPS VSync off, and honestly, I hate this, although I love the game so I can live with it but I wish I can improve it somehow.

Sometimes, when I see a mountain in the distance my fps just drops to 20 and stays like that permanently, but when I restart the game I can see the mountain without any fps drop...

Usually it comes to a point where I feel like I'm dragging my mouse because of the input lag.

I have a GTX 1650s 4GB, 16GB RAM and a Ryzen 5 5500, and I use Arch Linux with i3wm, I know it's not the best setup and Palworld uses UE5 which is a high demand hardware graphic motor, but I have read about people playing on even lower hardware than me and they apparently can play perfectly.

Edit: Just add -dx12 to your game parameters at that's it, it runs as it should.
