One big thing you need to think about is accessibility. This is something that came up in a conversation with a local representative in the UK - for children in public schools it is a requirements that any technology have good accessibility and not leave anyone behind. And accessibility tools on linux are, suffice to say, not great. Especially when compared with those on other closed systems. My local government ended up going with iPads for kids in schools, and the accessibility tooling on these was a factor in that choice.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Have Nvidia drivers on Linux gotten worse over later generations?
14·11 months agoThe drivers run OK, but because they were not built for my distribution with the right flag, when I sleep and resume my system, I need to log out and back in to the desktop or else it bugs out.
Is this the drivers fault for not having that be a default flag? The maintainers fault for not using the correct flags? Waylands fault for not interfacing with the driver right on resume? My fault for having the audacity to want to use the sleep function?
I have no clue, but it doesn’t happen with the open source nouevau drivers, so I’m inclined to place a fair bit of the blame with nvidia.

5·1 year agoI shifted my desktop this past month, happy to be part of the extra fractions of a % point.
Ubuntu 25.10 finally seems to have resolved a lot of the issues I’ve had in the past, so I think this shift will be permanent.

Yet another case where if the politician seriously thought about the issue for just half a minute they’d realise their attitude makes no sense.

I’m glad for the game devs but this article’s reporting is really confusing. 226% increase on what? They haven’t released a game recently before this. Of course you’re going to make money right after you release something new. A better comparison would be against the last quarter that they released a new game.
