Gimp is likely still using gtk2, which means you need a theme that supports gtk2. That's probably old and un-maintained, since gtk2 has been End-Of-Life for a while now. gimp 3.0 is approaching though.

My top 5 linux apps are probably something like:

1. Firefox
2. Kate
3. git
4. Steam
5. ls

The list in the video should have been, "Here's 5 maybe interesting apps for Linux".

Any links to the actual sources and not just random proton links?

Github comes up with a file-based build system for tup.

I get the joke, but it is kind of a phishing attempt.

Having a release party 4 weeks after the release is weird...

Nextcloud has a few options for something like this. PhoneTrack I think the app is called. You install the app on the phone and then connect it with a nextcloud server with the PhoneTrack app installed and setup. Then it would send all that information to your nextcloud instance. I don't know if you can stop the traffic to googles servers though.

If you worry about potential other backdoors in newer XZ versions, then you should also look into your kernel, systemd, dbus etc etc. All these things, can potentially contain backdoors that no one knows about yet.

As for currently known backdoors, the Arch versions are safe.

If a DE has a list of "must install" extensions/plugins for it to be usable, then that DE is not for me.

I don't know most of these extensions, but from the names it very opinionated and depends on who you are if those extensions are a must have for you. I mean, Burn My Windows does not sound like a must have, while Caffeine does.

Title should have been: "15 Extensions I Have To Install On GNOME".

Set up the regular Nextcloud install, instead of the AIO. The AIO is not required for any of the things you need, so you end up with lots of stuff you are not gonna touch.

I use Nextcloud with:

• Calendar
• Contacts
• Cookbook
• Notes
• Tasks
• Polls

Tasks can work together with the Tasks.org Android client and there are seperate apps for Notes and Cookbook, while Calendar and Contacts can integrate with your mobile apps via DavX5 using CalDav.

"How do you get on the other side of the paywall?" "You use a ladder..."

I'll show myself out.

But in the latter case you don't have to google. You already know what the problem is. The file it's looking for is missing. So I'd rather have that kind of message than just an error code.
